Shared Arrangements: practical inter-query sharing for streaming dataflows
Current systems for data-parallel, incremental processing and view
maintenance over high-rate streams isolate the execution of independent
queries. This creates unwanted redundancy and overhead in the presence of
concurrent incrementally maintained queries: each query must independently
maintain the same indexed state over the same input streams, and new queries
must build this state from scratch before they can begin to emit their first
results. This paper introduces shared arrangements: indexed views of maintained
state that allow concurrent queries to reuse the same in-memory state without
compromising data-parallel performance and scaling. We implement shared
arrangements in a modern stream processor and show order-of-magnitude
improvements in query response time and resource consumption for interactive
queries against high-throughput streams, while also significantly improving
performance in other domains including business analytics, graph processing,
and program analysis
Towards a Scalable Dynamic Spatial Database System
With the rise of GPS-enabled smartphones and other similar mobile devices,
massive amounts of location data are available. However, no scalable solutions
for soft real-time spatial queries on large sets of moving objects have yet
emerged. In this paper we explore and measure the limits of actual algorithms
and implementations regarding different application scenarios. And finally we
propose a novel distributed architecture to solve the scalability issues.Comment: (2012
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
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
A Reasoner for Calendric and Temporal Data
Calendric and temporal data are omnipresent in countless
Web and Semantic Web applications and Web services. Calendric and
temporal data are probably more than any other data a subject to
interpretation, in almost any case depending on some cultural, legal,
professional, and/or locational context. On the current Web, calendric
and temporal data can hardly be interpreted by computers. This article
contributes to the Semantic Web, an endeavor aiming at enhancing
the current Web with well-defined meaning and to enable computers to
meaningfully process data. The contribution is a reasoner for calendric
and temporal data. This reasoner is part of CaTTS, a type language for
calendar definitions. The reasoner is based on a \theory reasoning" approach
using constraint solving techniques. This reasoner complements
general purpose \axiomatic reasoning" approaches for the Semantic Web
as widely used with ontology languages like OWL or RDF
