HEPDOOP: High-Energy Physics Analysis using Hadoop
W. Bhimji, T. M. Bristow, A. Washbrook · Journal of Physics Conference Series · 2014
We perform a LHC data analysis workflow using tools and data formats that are commonly used in the "Big Data" community outside High Energy Physics (HEP). These include Apache Avro for serialisation to binary files, Pig and Hadoop for mass data processing and Python Scikit-Learn for multi-variate analysis. Comparison is made with the same analysis performed with current HEP tools in ROOT.
