> *Introduction*
> Hama will develop a high-performance and large-scale parallel matrix computational package based on Hadoop Map/Reduce. It will be useful for a massively large-scale Numerical Analysis and Data Mining, which need the intensive computation power of matrix inversion, e.g. linear regression, PCA, SVM and etc. It will be also useful for many scientific applications, e.g. physics computations, linear algebra, computational fluid dynamics, statistics, graphic rendering and many more.
> Hama approach proposes the use of 3-dimensional Row and Column (Qualifier), Time space and multi-dimensional Columnfamilies of Hbase (BigTable Clone), which is able to store large sparse and various type of matrices (e.g. Triangular Matrix, 3D Matrix, and etc.). its auto-partitioned sparsity sub-structure will be efficiently managed and serviced by Hbase. Row and Column operations can be done in linear-time, where several algorithms, such as structured Gaussian elimination or iterative methods, run in O(the number of non-zero elements in the matrix / number of mappers) time on Hadoop Map/Reduce.
> So, it has a strong relationship with the hadoop project, and it would be great if the "hama" can become a contrib project of the hadoop
> *Current Status*
> In its current state, the 'hama' is buggy and needs filling out, but generalized matrix interface and basic linear algebra operations was implemented within a large prototype system. In the future, We need new parallel algorithms based on Map/Reduce for performance of heavy decompositions and factorizations. It also needs tools to compose an arbitrary matrix only with certain data filtered from hbase array structure.
> It would be great if we can collaboration with the hadoop members.
