PROPOSAL

Are you interested in working with a big data open source project? You are welcome to conduct your thesis/project in Apache Wayang. Apache Wayang is the first cross-platform framework that allows users to specify their task/query in a system-agnostic manner and Wayang will determine which is the best system(s) to execute this task with the goal of optimizing performance. For a general overview …

PROPOSAL

Query optimization is crucial for any data management system to achieve good performance. Recent advancements in AI have led academia and industry to investigate learning-based techniques in query optimization. In particular, many works propose replacing the cost model used during plan enumeration with a machine learning model (typically a regression model) that estimates the runtime of a query …

PROPOSAL

LoRa is a long range, low bandwith networking protocol widely used in Internet of Things projects, sensor networks, low power, low cost and embeded systems. LoRa’s encoding schema allows for extremely long distance communications with small power usage and small simple antennas. This combination of features has made it attractive to small satellite operators flying cubesats and LoRa is now …
