CCI Talk: Big Data Analytics and Data Warehousing with Data Cubes
By Carlos Ordonez, Ph.D., Associate Professor, University of Houston
Dr. Carlos Ordonez, Associate Professor of University of Houston, will visit the College of Computing & Informatics and present a talk titled, "Big Data Analytics and Data Warehousing with Data Cubes."
Date: Wednesday, May 20, 2015
Time: 3:00 to 4:00 PM
Location: Rush Building, room 014, 30 N. 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA
Abstract
Cube processing remains a challenging problem in big data analytics and data warehousing, with wide application in decision support systems and business intelligence. We present a review of processing alternatives, programming languages, storage, algorithms, data structures and optimizations to analyze cubes on big data. We cover the full spectrum of analytic processing going from loading data, pre-processing to actually computing queries in a discovery fashion. We carefully compare SQL (together with UDFs) as available in modern DBMSs and Hadoop/MapReduce as two competing technologies for big data analytics, exploiting parallel computing. We outline solved major problems and open research issues.
Biography
Carlos Ordonez is an associate professor of Computer Science department of University of Houston. He earned his PhD in Computer Science from Georgia Institute of Technology under Edward Omiecinski in 2000. Carlos worked at Teradata (formerly NCR) from 1998 to 2006, developing DBMS analytic software and providing data mining consulting to major companies. Carlos collaborated in the optimization of data mining algorithms to work inside the Teradata parallel DBMS. In 2006 Carlos joined the Department of Computer Science at the University of Houston, where he leads the DBMS research group. Since 2013 he has been collaborating with Michael Stonebraker, for a number of new big data technologies, regularly visiting the Database Group at MIT. From 2014 to 2015 Carlos is a visiting researcher at ATT Research Labs in NY, working on stream analytics. His research has been funded by NSF.
