We envision that sequence recommendations can be useful whenever the group of users has a limited time interval to spend together, since they reduce the time wasted in selecting the best next activity. In this paper, we investigate the role played by the context, i.e. the situation the group is currently experiencing, in the design of a system that recommends sequences of activities. We model the problem as a multi-objective optimization, where the satisfaction of the group and the available time interval are two of the functions to be optimized. In particular, the dynamic evolution of the group can be considered as the key contextual feature to produce better suggestions.","PeriodicalId":335850,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Congress on Big Data (BigDataCongress)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130177688","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This decoupling, however, requires the introduction of a periodic synchronization protocol to ensure the consistency of the file system's metadata and its blocks. Apache HDFS and HopsFS implement a protocol, called block reporting, where each data server periodically sends ground truth information about all its file system blocks to the metadata servers, allowing the metadata to be synchronized with the actual state of the data blocks in the file system. The network and processing overhead of the existing block reporting protocol, however, increases with cluster size, ultimately limiting cluster scalability. In this paper, we introduce a new block reporting protocol for HopsFS that reduces the protocol bandwidth and processing overhead by up to three orders of magnitude, compared to HDFS/HopsFS' existing protocol. Our new protocol removes a major bottleneck that prevented HopsFS clusters scaling to tens of thousands of servers.","PeriodicalId":335850,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Congress on Big Data (BigDataCongress)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128740313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Service clustering is efficacious method to prune the query space, to narrow the searching space, and improve the accuracy of locating services that satisfied users' needs. At present, clustering method of web services adopted single or traditional clustering algorithms. However, accuracy and stability of single or traditional clustering algorithms is poor. In the paper, we proposed SWOC a service clustering method based on wisdom of crowd. Firstly, by using SWOC we calculated document similarity. Secondly, we implemented a mapping algorithm that reduces the correlation of web services and improve accuracy of method. And then, we applyed different number of clusters using different individual clustering methods that increase the number of partitions so as to enhance the robustness of SWOC. Lastly, the diversity algorithm evaluates and selects the partitions to extract interesting information for the final aggregation with the weight of each individual result. Experiments were performed on the real web service dataset crawled from ProgrammableWeb which prove the accuracy, recall, F-value and stability of proposed method.","PeriodicalId":335850,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Congress on Big Data (BigDataCongress)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122321280","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
