Diploma Thesis

My thesis revolves around the study and understanding of distributed systems such as Hadoop and HBase. By recognizing the limitations of those systems i designed and implemented an application for the creation of B, B+ Trees over HBase. I use the MapReduce distributed programming model in order to construct those specific trees and i have evaluated the implementation by testing it in a custom cluster i created in Okeanos. Also my implementation consists of a client which i use in order to execute range queries on the Trees constructed.

Here are some links were you can find a copy of my thesis in greek. I am still working on translating it to English!
