In this short paper, I recount some early history of transaction research (including some of my own), explain why transaction research continues to this day (even though it seems to be a solved problem), and speculate about its future. This…

This paper explores a new opportunity to improve the performance of transaction processing at the application side by merging structurely similar statements or transactions. Concretely, we re-write transactions to 1) merge similar…

Transaction processing has been an active area of research for several decades. A fundamental characteristic of classical transaction processing protocols is non-determinism, which causes them to suffer from performance issues on modern…

In this paper we provide a high performance solution to the problem of committing transactions while enforcing a predefined order. We provide the design and implementation of three algorithms, which deploy a specialized cooperative…

Transactional stream processing (TSP) strives to create a cohesive model that merges the advantages of both transactional and stream-oriented guarantees. Over the past decade, numerous endeavors have contributed to the evolution of TSP…

Stream processing has been an active research field for more than 20 years, but it is now witnessing its prime time due to recent successful efforts by the research community and numerous worldwide open-source communities. This survey…

Bitcoin has become the leading cryptocurrency system, but the limit on its transaction processing capacity has resulted in increased transaction fees and delayed transaction confirmation. As such, it is pertinent to understand and probably…

We introduce a new model in order to describe the fluctuation of tick-by-tick financial time series. Our model, based on marked point process, allows us to incorporate in a unique process the duration of the transaction and the…

With the spread of multi- and many-core processors more and more typical task is to re-implement some source code written originally for a single processor to run on more than one cores. Since it is a serious investment, it is important to…

The idea behind the recently introduced "age of information" performance measure of a networked message processing system is that it indicates our knowledge regarding the "freshness" of the most recent piece of information that can be used…

The aim of this article is to present an overview of the major families of state-of-the-art data processing benchmarks, namely transaction processing benchmarks and decision support benchmarks. We also address the newer trends in cloud…

When dealing with control systems, it is useful and even necessary to assess the performance of underlying transfer functions. The functions may or may not be linear, may or may not be even monotonic. In addition, they may have structural…

The new Cell processor represents a turning point for computing intensive applications. Here, I show that for molecular dynamics it is possible to reach an impressive sustained performance in excess of 30 Gflops with a peak of 45 Gflops for…

Deep metric learning papers from the past four years have consistently claimed great advances in accuracy, often more than doubling the performance of decade-old methods. In this paper, we take a closer look at the field to see if this is…

High-speed computerized trading, often called "high-frequency trading" (HFT), has increased dramatically in financial markets over the last decade. In the US and Europe, it now accounts for nearly one-half of all trades. Although evidence…

Measuring and analyzing the performance of software has reached a high complexity, caused by more advanced processor designs and the intricate interaction between user programs, the operating system, and the processor's microarchitecture.…

This paper investigates the use of a networked system ($e.g.$, swarm of robots, smart grid, sensor network) to monitor a time-varying phenomenon of interest in the presence of communication and computation latency. Recent advances in edge…

Permutation approach is suggested as a method to investigate financial time series in micro scales. The method is used to see how high frequency trading in recent years has affected the micro patterns which may be seen in financial time…

Blockchain has been considered as an important technique to enable secure management of virtual network functions and network slices. To understand such capabilities of a blockchain, e.g. transaction confirmation time, demands a thorough…

This study conducted a comprehensive review of 71 papers published between 2000 and 2021 that employed various measures of investor sentiment to model returns. The analysis indicates that higher complexity of sentiment measures and models…
