Models and Issues in Data Stream Systems

Summary: Motivates a model where data are multiple continuous, high-rate, time-varying streams instead of persistent relations, stressing consequences for query semantics and stream-oriented languages. Surveys prior work and articulates query-processing, resource-management, and algorithmic challenges for real-time, resource‑bounded stream systems. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
