Approximate structures for efficient processing of data streams

Abstract

This project aims to increase the volume of streamed data that can be handled on a low-powered device with limited memory. In finance, health, and transport, data arrives at enormous rates, and data-driven decisions must be made quickly. Likewise, to keep Australia secure, national agencies monitor and gather vast data sets. Increasingly, devices and monitors that have limited resources are making these decisions and they require computational techniques that run extremely efficiently. The project expects to develop and improve approximate data structures that operate in tight resource bounds. Anticipated outcomes are improved event recognition and dramatic speedup in analysis of streams in ..
