amounts <strong>of</strong> data quicker than the conventional system which is the equivalent <strong>of</strong> the much slower one instance<br />
system in this experiment.<br />
Further research can be made into this field by exploring the speed-up <strong>of</strong> MapReduce in other types <strong>of</strong> programs,<br />
as well as exploring the speed-up <strong>of</strong> MapReduce Streaming jobs on AWS. A comparison <strong>of</strong> both types <strong>of</strong> jobs on<br />
the AWS and local server would yield interesting data into the general efficient <strong>of</strong> using the AWS cloud system as<br />
opposed to a local host. More research can also be done into exploring the optimal number <strong>of</strong> processes to work<br />
on a job by exploring speed-up vs Data size and finding the most efficient number <strong>of</strong> processes per unit <strong>of</strong> data and<br />
exploring to see if the AWS is more efficient at certain types <strong>of</strong> computations or programs then it is at other types<br />
<strong>of</strong> computations.<br />
