Renan started testing Virtuoso last weekend. He now has the data in an easily exchangeable format so he can transfer it from the earlier repository he was using (OWLIM) to the new one (Virtuoso). That is what he is trying to do this week: upload to the Virtuoso database. The main problem for me is that he can use only 2 hours a day to work, because of his job. For the speed problem, although he could not convert all the data in an easily exchangeable format (we have too much data!), he now have enough data to test on Virtuoso.
Renan is looking at submitting a paper or poster for a Big Data and Social Computing conference that will be held at Stanford: Bebo has looked at the conference and believes a posters submission would be good. Renan talked to his supervisor, Luiza and she suggested him to get in touch with another professor at UFRJ who also has experience in submitting papers for international conferences. She also has experience in big data, especially working with scientific data. This new professor, called Marta, said she can help Renan with writing and submitting for the Stanford Big Data Conference. We would need to submit a 10-pages-2-columns paper, focusing on Big Data processing (and maybe analysis), trying to also give some ‘scientific content’ approach, because this is Marta’s field of research. The due date for the paper submission is March 1st.
