CSC352 Homework 4 Solution

Problem #1: Timeline
Several observations were in order:
- The cluster only has 5 task-tracker nodes
- The default for Hadoop is two map tasks per task-tracker per job.
- This explains the maximum of 10 map tasks running first, then stopping, and then closing down, then 6 map tasks taking over, with an overlap of 4 map tasks.
- 4 files of approximately 180 MB comprise the input. Hadoop splits input files into splits of 64 MB.
- 180 MB will correspond to 3 or 4 splits, depending on the exact size of the file. This means between 12 to 16 splits for the 4 files.
Because we see that 16 (12+4) map tasks run altogether, we deduce that we had 16 splits total, requiring 16 tasks. 12 ran first, then were taken down while 4 more were started.
Problem #2
Below is a Map/Reduce pair of Python streaming programs for a job similar to what was required. Instead of reporting the unique categories, the program return the categories and a list of Ids of wiki pages in which they appear.
Examples of output
category:(10th century in ireland) [10130001]category:(1976 films) [10000001] category:(argentine films) [10000001] category:(economy of côte d'ivoire) [10160001] category:(estuaries in england) [100001,200002] category:(hospitals in north carolina) [1010001] category:(lists of hospitals in the united states) [1010001]
