Amr El Abbadi, University of California at Santa Barbara, will give a seminar on "Taming Big Data: Stream Summarization and its Many Applications". Tuesday, May 5 · 2:00 p.m., Aula P1.3, Dipartimento di Ingegneria "Enzo Ferrari".
Abstract: In recent decades, internet-scale applications have generated massive amounts of data from user interactions. To analyze this data, summary statistics are needed, but exact methods are often too slow and resource-intensive. Instead, streaming algorithms use efficient approximations with controlled errors. The focus is on data stream summarization, especially the “heavy hitters” problem, along with related challenges such as handling insertions and deletions, privacy concerns, and applications in cloud caching and network monitoring, showing the connection between mathematical methods and big data management.
We are pleased to announce that the final program for PhD Day 2025 is now available!
