Back-to-the-Future Weekend Reading - Distributed GraphLab: A Framework for Machine Learning and Data Mining in the Cloud. The intense travels around the world in the spring have kept me from keeping up on the historical reading that I would like to do, as such there have not been that many suggesting for the back-to-basics reading list.
The fall is going be not that much different but I will make an effort to get back into a reading habit. I want to kick off the fall readings not with an historical paper but with two that detail GraphLab, an excellent framework for high performance machine learning that originally has been built by the Carlos Guestrin (Carlos is now the Amazon Professor of Machine Learning at UW). GraphLab has been used to build several different data mining and graph processing toolkits and applications.
