Nowadays, healthcare is facing Big Data processing in order to support medical staff by means of decision making tools. In this context, a challenging topic is the storing and analysis of data in the cardiology field. Electrocardiogram produces signals about the heart health that need to be processed in order to detect a possible disorder. In this paper, we discuss an Apache Spark based tool and that uses the Menard algorithm. In order to validate our solution, we performed experiments on a use case in which the algorithm has been implemented in order to detect heart disorder. Experiments prove the goodness of our approach in terms of performance.

Abstract
Nowadays, healthcare is facing Big Data processing in order to support medical staff by means of decision making tools. In this context, a challenging topic is the storing and analysis of data in the cardiology field. Electrocardiogram produces signals about the heart health that need to be processed in order to detect a possible disorder. In this paper, we discuss an Apache Spark based tool and that uses the Menard algorithm. In order to validate our solution, we performed experiments on a use case in which the algorithm has been implemented in order to detect heart disorder. Experiments prove the goodness of our approach in terms of performance.Pubblicazioni consigliate
