Beschreibung

In this seminar advanced technologies for the handling of enterprise data will be analyzed. Traditionally, enterprise data was - and still is - stored in disc-based relational databases. However, technology has experienced huge advancements since the first ideas about storing data in relational databases appeared, e.g. growing size of main memory or multi-core processors. The question that this seminar shall answer is whether there are new methods of handling data that exploit the characteristics of the advanced technology. This means for example to hold the entire data in main memory and use new algorithms for data storage that take advantage of the random access, or to profit from faster calculations through massive parallelization and data distribution.

Each participant has to write a paper that adheres to the guidelines of scientific writing. The participants are also required to prepare a presentation about their topic. In doing so, they will learn how to defend one's ideas in front of the scientific community. Furthermore, the participants are required to build up impartial opinions on the work of the other participants by writing obejctive reviews of their papers.
