Chen, Ph.D. Due Date: Tuesday, February 17, 2014 Assignment guidelines Overview This assignment, described as a "Big Data Technology Review Paperâ€. You may choose any one of the current Big Data technologies; Which including Big Data Technology Adoption and Implementation, Big Data Processing Technologies (Hardware and software platforms, architecture, Big Data Processing Tools and Techniques (comparison and evaluations, Tool such as Hadoop and Map Reduce), Big Data Application in Enterprise, Financial, Insurance, Government, Retails, Healthcare, market analysis or others.

Big Data and Cloud Computing Technology. Big Data and Mobile Computing Technologies. The paper should be written in the style of a formal "literature review." You may work on other Big Data technologies if you know or have done the similar research about it. Assignment Objectives 1. Locate relevant research and literature on one of your selected Big Data Technologies 2.

Understand the current major Big Data Technologies. 3. Review a primary research on Big Data technology. 4. Evaluate the strengths and limitations of your selected Big Data technology.

5. Enhancing your independent research ability to adopt new technology quickly and wisely. Written Paper The written paper should offer a review of Big Data Technology and its important concepts. This paper will describe a sub-topic of Big Data technology which you selected; you'll then need to elaborate on how the technology works, how it has been adopted by IT practical world at large, how it has been applied, and what shortcomings have been identified. This will require that you research several sources, which may include books, book chapters, scholarly articles, IT journals and vendor white papers.

The most importantly, you need to focus on what is the current state of the technology and future direction of your selected Big Data technology. Finding the literature You should focus on one area of the sub-topics of the Big Data technologies of your interest as your basic topic, but once you have identified it; you might face an unexpected problem of massive information being collected - narrowing your resources to a manageable body of literature. Then bring your search "up to date" by following recent studies that lead to your current area of interest. This may require finding a limited number of recent articles, papers and published technology reviews, etc., Outlining the paper Here's a suggested outline for a Big Data Technology Review Paper: Title page Table of contents and figures 1.

Abstract An abstract is an independent text, written in a brief, non-repetitive style that states the essential details of the research presented in this paper. It offers a quick way for the reader to know what is expected to see or to know from this paper. 2. Introduction The introduction places the report into a wider context and points to its relevance. The introduction should present the key terms used and make it clear how the paper contributes to the field by explaining the research objectives, arguing that the research is important and placing the study in the context of previous research. · Establish the topic and its significance · Establish need for present research · Introduce the present research · Key Term definitions 3.

Literature Review · Definitions of concepts -- What are the main concepts and how have they been defined? This should include nominal definitions (working definitions used in research to date) and examples of operational definitions if possible (how the concepts actually have been measured). Again, cite primary research on concepts and or supported theories on your selected technology. · Complete and detailed description of the IT technology and its significant concept(s). · Relationships among concepts -- How do the concepts defined above affect, mediate, or interact with one another? What other factors have come into play in the literature you have reviewed? · Critique -- What are the limitations of the technology?

What are proponents and critics concerned about? This likely will include issues of conceptualization, measurement, and general usefulness of the technology. · Current State of the technology · Future direction of the technology 4. Discussion (Advantages, disadvantages, Impacts, issues, if any, and related applications) 5. Conclusion and Implications (Significance, usefulness, potential useful on the practical applications, recommended reading list or sources) References Attach your Turnitin Similarity Report with your paper.
