Abstract

En 中文

Stream Processing Systems (SPSs) are designed to process continuous streams of events, often under highly variable input rates. Although prior work has explored dynamic operator replication, many existing approaches lack generalizability and perform suboptimally across diverse scenarios. In this article, we present MMP-SPS, a predictive self-adaptive framework that extends extends our prior PA-SPS system by introducing a multi-window control loop, support for multiple prediction models, and online model selection via RMSE-based evaluation and multi-armed bandits. Targeting environments with high-volume and fluctuating data streams, such as social media analytics and network traffic monitoring, the framework dynamically selects the most suitable model based on real-time workload characteristics using a reinforcement learning (RL) strategy. To prove the validity of our system, we deployed an implementation of MMP-SPS based on Apache Storm, and we evaluated it on Google Cloud Platform against real-world datasets. Experimental results show substantial improvements in latency, throughput, and resource utilization compared to static and single-model baselines. These findings underscore the potential of multi-model predictive adaptation for scalable and robust stream processing under dynamic conditions.
