TeraSort is a popular benchmark that measures the amount of time to sort one terabyte of randomly distributed data on a given computer system. It is commonly used to measure MapReduce performance of an Apacheâ¢ HadoopÂ® cluster. The following report compares performance of a YARN-scheduled TeraSort job on MapR and other distributions.
A mockup radar trace from a SART transponder, with the location of the transponder in the trace. A search and rescue transponder (SART) is a self-contained, waterproof transponder intended for emergency use at sea. These devices may be either a radar-SART, or a GPS-based AIS-SART (automatic identification system SART). The radar-SART is used to locate a survival craft or distressed vessel by creating a series of dots on a rescuing ship's radar display. A SART will only respond to a 9 GHz X-band (3 cm wavelength) radar.
