[Pharo-project] Fwd: [squeak-dev] Re: Project ideas for GSoC, 7 days left!

Name: Big data CSV parser plugin Level: Intermediate Possible mentor: ? Possible second mentor: ? Description With the advent of inexpensive DNA microarray technology, big data is now available to many small and medium laboratories which performs statistical analysis based in microarray experiments. Most of the times the data produced by genotyping services is delivered in CSV format, as it represents a currently cross-platform "standard" which is easily readable, and still used in hundreds of business applications. In Smalltalk we have several CSV parsers but the performance is far from being competitive with libraries implemented in other languages. The goal of this project is to measure time execution and build a plugin to access CSV data in a fast and competitive way. Technical Details Currently exists several open source projects which implements C functions to access CSV data. The challenge of this project is to learn tools like VMMaker and Interpreter Plugin classes to develop a Squeak/Pharo internal or external plugin. Benefits to the Student The student will learn about interfacing highly efficient libraries to Smalltalk. Benefits to the Community The Smalltalk community will gain a winning library for a extremely common task like dealing with CSV files. Name: HDF5 support (http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/) Level: Intermediate Possible mentor: ? Possible second mentor: ? Description Hierarchical Data File 5 is a new (1998) format capable of storing large and complex amount of data, and it is used in Gravitational and Plasma Physics, Earth Science research, Weather Services, Software Engineering, Biomedical Informatics, etc. As new data adquisition hardware is providing bigger datasets (for example, sequencing data) the need to query and access metadata, partial and full datasets in an efficient way (parallel I/O) is more important. In this format data are stored in a hierarchical format similar to the UNIX file system, and the data model supports a rich variety of data types and data space organizations. Currently exists APIs and wrappers for Java, .NET, Python, C and FORTRAN. The goal of this project is to build a wrapper to enable to access HDF5 data in Smalltalk. This binding could open Smalltalk to a lot of science domains and users in which currently pure object technology is unknown. Technical Details The student will need to learn details about the HDF format as data sets and composite data types. Benefits to the Student The student would learn about efficient data systems, implement an API, and experiment with large scientific data in Smalltalk. Benefits to the Community The Smalltalk community will attract more users by keeping in touch with big data analytics, by providing access to an efficient data format used currently in research and business. 2012/3/5 Janko MivÅ¡ek <janko.mivsek(a)eranova.si> > HernÃ¡n and Karl, can you or someone else develop your ideas a bit > furher, by answering the questions: > > description > technical details > benefif for student > benefit for community > > while potential mentor can be choosen later > > Thanks! > Janko > > Dne 02. 03. 2012 21:38, piÅ¡e karl ramberg: > > Make web browser plugin of Squeak work better on all platforms. > > Get Etoys image to run on CogVM. > > > > Karl > > > > > > On Fri, Mar 2, 2012 at 9:36 PM, karl ramberg <karlramberg(a)gmail.com> > wrote: > >> Port OpenQwaq video to Etoys > >> > >> Karl > >> > >> > >> On Fri, Mar 2, 2012 at 9:17 PM, HernÃ¡n Morales Durand > >> <hernan.morales(a)gmail.com> wrote: > >>> To dream is easy: > >>> > >>> -HDF5 (http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/) support like PyTables or h5py > for > >>> Python > >>> -Information Retrieval/Full Text Search package like Lucene > >>> (http://lucene.apache.org/) > >>> -A binding to R or SAS or SPSS > >>> -Better or more semantic web support (see > >>> > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_Services_Resource_Framework#Implementations > ) > >>> -An omnibrowser for OWL ontologies > >>> -CSS template system > >>> -Support of a Distributed Hash Table protocol like Pastry > >>> (http://www.freepastry.org/) > >>> -Workflow system with designer and plug-in architecture (see > >>> http://www.taverna.org.uk/) > >>> -Big data CSV parser plugin > >>> -Plugin for fast approximate search in strings > >>> > >>> cheers, > >>> > >>> > >>> > >>> 2012/3/2 Janko MivÅ¡ek <janko.mivsek(a)eranova.si> > >>>> > >>>> Hi everyone, > >>>> > >>>> 7 days to deadline for ideas of this year GSoC!
