MapReduce Mapper Assignment

Motivation

In previous semesters the MapReduce lab has proven to be the most challenging. We have split things up to allow you to get familiar with the how Mappers and Reducers work first. We will build a card mapper that matches the spec outlined in the prep video, a simple word counting mapper, an analogous k-mer counting mapper, and an integer sum reducer to wrap things up.

The k-mer counting mapper will prepare us for (and hopefully lessen the burden of) upcoming lab 6.

Code To Use

BiConsumer

accept(t,u) (note: closest relative to "emit" from RiceX prep)

Collector

finisher() (note: closest relative to "reduce" from RiceX prep)

Deck (note: Iterable<Card>)

Card

getRank()

getSuit()

Rank

isNumeric()

getNumericValue()

Suit

TextSection

getWords()

Code To Implement

Card Mapper

The specification for this mapper is outlined in the prep video:

Non-numeric cards are considered to be bad data and ignored. Numeric cards should be emitted with their suit as the key and the numeric value as the value.

class:	CardMapper.java
methods:	map
package:	mapreduce.apps.intsum.cards.studio
source folder:	student/src/main/java

method: public void map(Deck deck, BiConsumer<Suit, Integer> keyValuePairConsumer) (sequential implementation only)

Word Count Mapper

class:	WordCountMapper.java
methods:	map
package:	mapreduce.apps.intsum.wordcount.studio
source folder:	student/src/main/java

method: public void map(TextSection textSection, BiConsumer<String, Integer> keyValuePairConsumer) (sequential implementation only)

K-mer Count Mapper

K-mer counting is a useful technique in bioinformatics: http://www.csbio.unc.edu/mcmillan/Comp555S17/Lecture02.pdf

Background information on k-mer counting can be found here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-mer

This mapper is similar to the word count mapper except that the k-mers overlap with each other while words are separate.

class:	KMerMapper.java
methods:	map
package:	mapreduce.apps.intsum.kmer.studio
source folder:	student/src/main/java

method: public void map(byte[] sequence, BiConsumer<String, Integer> keyValuePairConsumer) (sequential implementation only)

Int Sum Reducer

class:	IntegerSumClassicReducer.java
methods:	finisher
package:	mapreduce.apps.intsum.studio
source folder:	student/src/main/java

method: public Function<List<Integer>, Integer> finisher() (sequential implementation only)
