Title Change

Hello Readers,

Based on the focus of my project, I do not think that the current title accurately describes my topic anymore. Therefore I have changed my title and description.

Here is the new title: Page Rank Algorithm Implementation in the Apache Spark Cloud Computing System for use in Big Data Analysis

Here is the new description: As technology becomes a larger part of our everyday lives, the cloud, and therefore cloud computing, becomes essential. Large-scale data processing is an important part of cloud computing, and can be run through programs such as Spark. Spark is a shell that allows developers to write a program that utilizes Spark libraries. This allows for the driver program to be run on Spark and quickly process large amounts of information. One such program is the Page Rank algorithm, which analyzes the importance of a web page by assigning it a rank based on the outgoing and incoming links to and from other webpages. This program was made famous by Google and is used to order the listed search results by importance.
