Today’s social networks continuously generate massive streams of data, which provide a valuable starting point for the detection rumours as soon they start to propagate. However, rumour faces tight latency bounds, cannot be met by contemporary algorithms, given sheer volume high-velocity streaming data emitted networks. Hence, in this paper, we argue best-effort that detects most quickly rather...

As high-speed Internet connections and Internet streaming media become widespread, the demand for high-performance, cheap Internet streaming servers increases. In this paper, we look into the performance limitations of streaming server applications running on PC servers with Linux, and propose a new kernel optimization called “stream engine” that combines both copy elimination and context switc...
