Java Programming: Arrays, Lists, and Structured Data
Build on the software engineering skills you learned in “Java Programming: Solving Problems with Software” by learning new data structures. Use these data structures to build more complex programs that use Java’s object-oriented features. At the end of the course you will write an encryption program and a program to break your encryption algorithm. After completing this course, you will be able to: 1. Read and write data from/to files; 2. Solve problems involving data files; 3. Perform quantitative analyses of data (e.g., finding maximums, minimums, averages); 4.

Big Data Analysis with Scala and Spark
Manipulating big data distributed over a cluster using functional concepts is rampant in industry, and is arguably one of the first widespread industrial uses of functional ideas. This is evidenced by the popularity of MapReduce and Hadoop, and most recently Apache Spark, a fast, in-memory distributed collections framework written in Scala. In this course, we'll see how the data parallel paradigm can be extended to the distributed case, using Spark throughout.

Java Built in Data Structures
In this project you will read weather data from a file and populate a Java ArrayList with the file data. The data is then uniquified in a Set data structure and stored in a HashMap for accessing data by year. Java's collections framework contains data structures that are built for efficiency. They are used to store and retrieve data in various formats. A list such as an ArrayList can be used in place of an array to contain data where the size cannot be determined ahead of time.

Big Data Science with the BD2K-LINCS Data Coordination and Integration Center
The Library of Integrative Network-based Cellular Signatures (LINCS) was an NIH Common Fund program that lasted for 10 years from 2012-2021. The idea behind the LINCS program was to perturb different types of human cells with many different types of perturbations such as drugs and other small molecules, genetic manipulations such as single gene knockdown, knockout, or overexpression, manipulation of the extracellular microenvironment conditions, for example, growing cells on different surfaces, and more.
