Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Stream processing engines (SPEs) allow applications to process a large amount of data in real-time. However, to schedule big data applications; the SPEs create several challenges regarding resource utilisation, dynamic configurations, heterogeneous environment, resource awareness, load balancing, etc. As the volume of data increases over time, it also poses a challenge to predict the resource and application requirements for processing. All these factors play an important role, they can cause problems in achieving maximum throughput due to inefficiency in any of them. Most SPEs ignore the topology’s structure, which may minimise throughput during scheduling and may increase network latency. In this article, a topology-aware and resource-aware scheduler (named WG-Storm) is proposed based on a directed acyclic graph (DAG) that enhances resource usage and overall throughput using efficient task assignment. WG-Storm is built on Apache Storm. Results are generated using the two linear topologies and compared with the five state-of-art schedulers including A3-Storm, Default, Isolation, Multi-tenant, and Resource-aware. The experimental results show up to 30% increased throughput using the least required computing resources in a heterogeneous cluster.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
