- 1-3 Seminar.
Required reading – two papers from Bill Howe, our Tuesday speaker (we strongly suggest you read the first paper BEFORE the second
– SQLShare: ScientificWorkflow via Relational View Sharing. Bill Howe, Francois Ribalet, Daniel Halperin, Sagar Chitnis, E. Virginia Armbrust, Computers in Science and Engineering (CiSE), May/June 2013 (to appear).
– Real-Time Collaborative Analysis with (Almost) Pure SQL: A Case Study in Biogeochemical Oceanography. Daniel Halperin, Konstantin Weitz, Bill Howe, Francois Ribalet, E. Virginia Armbrust. Scientific and Statistical Database Conference, Baltimore, MD. July 2013 (to appear). - 1-2 page reflection writing due in seminar – on ONE of the two topics below (or your own question). Bring a hardcopy to class and upload an electronic copy to the moodle:
Note: DO NOT summarize part of the reading. Instead, provide an interpretation of and/or an opinion about what you read. If you feel like the default topics are leading you down a path to summary, please choose your own topic to discuss.
—Default Topic 1: In the business world the “as-a-service” model (Software as-a-service, Platform as-a-service, etc.) gives companies the ability to turn computing technology into a predictable expense. What does the “as-a-service” model give the scientific community?
—Default Topic 2: Both Howe and Megler’s systems improve the availability of scientific data. Their data even comes from similar sources like scientific cruises. However, these projects result in very different systems. Compare and contrast the requirements and results of the “Data near Here” project and the SQLShare project. (If you chose this topic take care to have a thesis and not just a list of observations).
Tuesday
