1. Data-Intensive Computing: From Multi-Cores and GPGPUs to Cloud Computing and Deep Web Gagan Agrawal u

2. Data-Intensive Computing Simply put: scalable analysis of large datasets How is it different from: related to – Databases: Emphasis on processing of static datasets – Data Mining Community focused more on algorithms, and not scalable implementations – High Performance / Parallel Computing More focus on compute-intensive tasks, not I/O or large datasets – Datacenters Use of large resources for hosting data, less on their use for processing

3. Why Now ? Amount of data is increasing rapidly Cheap Storage Better connectivity, easy to move large datasets on web/grids Science shifting from compute-X to X- informatics Business intelligence and analysis Google’s Map-Reduce has created excitement

4. Architectural Context Processor architecture has gone through a major change – No more scaling with clock speeds – Parallelism – multi-core / many-core is the trend Accelerators like GPGPUs have become effective More challenges for scaling any class of applications

5. Grid/Cloud/Utility Computing Cloud computing is a major new trend in industry – Data and computation in a Cloud of resources – Pay for use model (like a utility) Has roots in many developments over the last decade – Service-oriented computing, Software as a Service (SaaS) – Grid computing – use of wide-area resources

21. Summary of Results Both Full-replication and Cache-sensitive locking can outperform each other based on the nature of application Cache-sensitive locking seems to have high overhead when there is little computation between updates in ReductionObject MPI processes competes well with best of other two when run on smaller cores, but experiences communication overheads when run on larger number of cores
