Grand challenge: SPRINT stream processing engine as a solution.

ABSTRACTA stream processing engine, named SPRINT, is designed and implemented to efficiently process queries over high-speed sensor data streams from soccer games. SPRINT adopts several novel strategies, including a lock-free ring buffer, frame-based sliding windows, and dynamic parallel computation, to pursue three objectives: high speed, high precision, and low space consumption. Experiments show that SPRINT can achieve these three goals simultaneously.
