Abstract

In order to meet the challenges in data processing, a new domain of large-scale data-intensive computing is emerging where distributed data and computing resources are harnessed to allow users to manage, process, and explore individual data sets and, where appropriate, join them with other data sets to answer previously unanswerable questions. This chapter discusses efforts to build distributed computers specifically designed to process large quantities of data. It also discusses the work of the Advanced Data Mining and Integration Research for Europe (ADMIRE) project, which is seeking to develop software tools and techniques for advanced distributed data mining. Well-designed hardware systems are only part of the data-intensive computing story. In order to manipulate and analyze the data on such systems, it is vital to employ advanced software tools, and leading European research in this area is discussed in the chapter. cloud computing; software tools
