Learn Hadoop and get a paper published by Allison Domicone.
From the post:
We’re looking for students who want to try out the Hadoop platform and get a technical report published.
(If you’re looking for inspiration, we have some paper ideas below. Keep reading.)
Hadoop’s version of MapReduce will undoubtedbly come in handy in your future research, and Hadoop is a fun platform to get to know. Common Crawl, a nonprofit organization with a mission to build and maintain an open crawl of the web that is accessible to everyone, has a huge repository of open data – about 5 billion web pages – and documentation to help you learn these tools.
So why not knock out a quick technical report on Hadoop and Common Crawl? Every grad student could use an extra item in the Publications section of his or her CV.
As an added bonus, you would be helping us out. We’re trying to encourage researchers to use the Common Crawl corpus. Your technical report could inspire others and provide a citable papers for them to reference.
Leave a comment now if you’re interested! Then once you’ve talked with your advisor, follow up to your comment, and we’ll be available to help point you in the right direction technically.
How very cool!
