Towards Analytics Aware Ontology Based Access to Static and Streaming Data (Extended Version)
Real-time analytics that requires integration and aggregation of
heterogeneous and distributed streaming and static data is a typical task in
many industrial scenarios such as diagnostics of turbines in Siemens. OBDA
approach has a great potential to facilitate such tasks; however, it has a
number of limitations in dealing with analytics that restrict its use in
important industrial applications. Based on our experience with Siemens, we
argue that in order to overcome those limitations OBDA should be extended and
become analytics, source, and cost aware. In this work we propose such an
extension. In particular, we propose an ontology, mapping, and query language
for OBDA, where aggregate and other analytical functions are first class
citizens. Moreover, we develop query optimisation techniques that allow to
efficiently process analytical tasks over static and streaming data. We
implement our approach in a system and evaluate our system with Siemens turbine
data
DRSP : Dimension Reduction For Similarity Matching And Pruning Of Time Series Data Streams
Similarity matching and join of time series data streams has gained a lot of
relevance in today's world that has large streaming data. This process finds
wide scale application in the areas of location tracking, sensor networks,
object positioning and monitoring to name a few. However, as the size of the
data stream increases, the cost involved to retain all the data in order to aid
the process of similarity matching also increases. We develop a novel framework
to addresses the following objectives. Firstly, Dimension reduction is
performed in the preprocessing stage, where large stream data is segmented and
reduced into a compact representation such that it retains all the crucial
information by a technique called Multi-level Segment Means (MSM). This reduces
the space complexity associated with the storage of large time-series data
streams. Secondly, it incorporates effective Similarity Matching technique to
analyze if the new data objects are symmetric to the existing data stream. And
finally, the Pruning Technique that filters out the pseudo data object pairs
and join only the relevant pairs. The computational cost for MSM is O(l*ni) and
the cost for pruning is O(DRF*wsize*d), where DRF is the Dimension Reduction
Factor. We have performed exhaustive experimental trials to show that the
proposed framework is both efficient and competent in comparison with earlier
works.Comment: 20 pages,8 figures, 6 Table
Streaming Similarity Self-Join
We introduce and study the problem of computing the similarity self-join in a
streaming context (SSSJ), where the input is an unbounded stream of items
arriving continuously. The goal is to find all pairs of items in the stream
whose similarity is greater than a given threshold. The simplest formulation of
the problem requires unbounded memory, and thus, it is intractable. To make the
problem feasible, we introduce the notion of time-dependent similarity: the
similarity of two items decreases with the difference in their arrival time. By
leveraging the properties of this time-dependent similarity function, we design
two algorithmic frameworks to solve the sssj problem. The first one, MiniBatch
(MB), uses existing index-based filtering techniques for the static version of
the problem, and combines them in a pipeline. The second framework, Streaming
(STR), adds time filtering to the existing indexes, and integrates new
time-based bounds deeply in the working of the algorithms. We also introduce a
new indexing technique (L2), which is based on an existing state-of-the-art
indexing technique (L2AP), but is optimized for the streaming case. Extensive
experiments show that the STR algorithm, when instantiated with the L2 index,
is the most scalable option across a wide array of datasets and parameters
Fast Search for Dynamic Multi-Relational Graphs
Acting on time-critical events by processing ever growing social media or
news streams is a major technical challenge. Many of these data sources can be
modeled as multi-relational graphs. Continuous queries or techniques to search
for rare events that typically arise in monitoring applications have been
studied extensively for relational databases. This work is dedicated to answer
the question that emerges naturally: how can we efficiently execute a
continuous query on a dynamic graph? This paper presents an exact subgraph
search algorithm that exploits the temporal characteristics of representative
queries for online news or social media monitoring. The algorithm is based on a
novel data structure called the Subgraph Join Tree (SJ-Tree) that leverages the
structural and semantic characteristics of the underlying multi-relational
graph. The paper concludes with extensive experimentation on several real-world
datasets that demonstrates the validity of this approach.Comment: SIGMOD Workshop on Dynamic Networks Management and Mining (DyNetMM),

When Things Matter: A Data-Centric View of the Internet of Things
With the recent advances in radio-frequency identification (RFID), low-cost
wireless sensor devices, and Web technologies, the Internet of Things (IoT)
approach has gained momentum in connecting everyday objects to the Internet and
facilitating machine-to-human and machine-to-machine communication with the
physical world. While IoT offers the capability to connect and integrate both
digital and physical entities, enabling a whole new class of applications and
services, several significant challenges need to be addressed before these
applications and services can be fully realized. A fundamental challenge
centers around managing IoT data, typically produced in dynamic and volatile
environments, which is not only extremely large in scale and volume, but also
noisy, and continuous. This article surveys the main techniques and
state-of-the-art research efforts in IoT from data-centric perspectives,
including data stream processing, data storage models, complex event
processing, and searching in IoT. Open research issues for IoT data management
are also discussed
AsterixDB: A Scalable, Open Source BDMS
AsterixDB is a new, full-function BDMS (Big Data Management System) with a
feature set that distinguishes it from other platforms in today's open source
Big Data ecosystem. Its features make it well-suited to applications like web
data warehousing, social data storage and analysis, and other use cases related
to Big Data. AsterixDB has a flexible NoSQL style data model; a query language
that supports a wide range of queries; a scalable runtime; partitioned,
LSM-based data storage and indexing (including B+-tree, R-tree, and text
indexes); support for external as well as natively stored data; a rich set of
built-in types; support for fuzzy, spatial, and temporal types and queries; a
built-in notion of data feeds for ingestion of data; and transaction support
akin to that of a NoSQL store.
Development of AsterixDB began in 2009 and led to a mid-2013 initial open
source release. This paper is the first complete description of the resulting
open source AsterixDB system. Covered herein are the system's data model, its
query language, and its software architecture. Also included are a summary of
the current status of the project and a first glimpse into how AsterixDB
performs when compared to alternative technologies, including a parallel
relational DBMS, a popular NoSQL store, and a popular Hadoop-based SQL data
analytics platform, for things that both technologies can do. Also included is
a brief description of some initial trials that the system has undergone and
the lessons learned (and plans laid) based on those early "customer"
engagements
