Welcome to Hama project

Hama (means a hippopotamus in Korean) is a distributed scientific package on Hadoop for massive matrix and graph data. It is currently in incubation with Apache. The main goal of Hama is to provide computational tools for data-intensive scientific and industrial areas. It consists of two packages, which are the matrix package and the graph package.

• Scientific simulation and modeling
  • Matrix-vector/matrix-matrix multiply
  • Soving linear systems
  • Scientific graphs

• Information retrieval
  • Sorting
  • Finding eigenvalues and eigenvectors

• Computer graphics and computational geometry
  • Matrix multiply
  • Computing matrix determinate

For more information about Hama, please see the Hama wiki.
