Performance-aware deployment of streaming applications in distributed stream computing systems

Abstract

Performance-aware deployment of streaming applications is one of the key challenging problems in distributed stream computing systems. We proposed a performance-aware deployment framework (Pa-Stream) for distributed stream computing systems. By addressing the important aspects of the framework, this paper makes the following contributions: 1) investigated the performance-aware deployment of a streaming application over distributed and heterogeneous computing nodes, and provided a general application deployment model; 2) demonstrated a streaming applications deployment scheme by proposing an artificial bee colony strategy that deploys application's vertices onto the best set of computing node..
