Research:
- Applications: consulted with Sam Woolford (MA, Center for Quantitative Analysis) for a local business using data mining techniques on the HPC; assisted the Public Sector Analytics Project to work with a large dataset in an unfamiliar format
- Learned with Tumen Bayar (ATC), Norm Josephy (MA), Maria Skaletsky (ATC) and Jason Wells (ATC) to use the R Language libraries which support parallel processing and large datasets on the HPC
- Built the high performance computing cluster (HPC) with Jason Wells (ATC) and Steve Morrow (Systems Services.)
- Installed Cassandra, a modern distributed database, and Spark, a computing environment for large scale data analytics, on the HPC
