![Hadoop and SGE data retrieval, processing and storage working flow basing on Multi-atlas CRUISE (MaCRUISE) segmentation [14, 15]. The data in an HBase table is approximately balanced to each Regionserver. The Regionserver collocates with a Hadoop Datanode to fully utilize the data collocation and locality[7]. We design our proposed computation models using only the map phase of Hadoop’s MapReduce [13]. In this phase, the data is retrieved locally; if the result were moved to reduce phase, more data movement would occur, because the reduce phase does not ensure process local data. Within the map phase, all necessary data is retrieved and saved on a local directory and gets furtherly processed by locally installed binary executables command-line program. After that, the results of processing are uploaded back to HBase. For SGE, the user submits a batch of jobs to a submit host, and this host dispatches the job to execution hosts. Each execution host retrieves the data within a shared NFS and stores the result back to the NFS.](https://s3.amazonaws.com/vu-my/wp-content/uploads/sites/2304/2016/11/08141242/Screen-Shot-2017-02-08-at-1.11.13-PM.png)
