Definitions

Recently, several big data stream management systems (DSMS, for short) have been developed to provide an infrastructure to process streamed big data. Big spatial DSMSs constitute a special class of big DSMSs that are optimized to process large amounts of spatial data streams. The main idea behind most big spatial DSMSs is to leverage the spatial properties of the incoming data stream to fairly distribute the workload across multiple distributed processes. When processing big spatial data streams, it is important to maintain high throughput and low latency.

Overview

Spatial data is ubiquitous. It is continuously being generated at a large scale. This is due to the popularity of GPS-enabled devices, e.g., smartphones, smart-watches, personal activity trackers, and GPS-navigation devices. Efficient processing of this streamed big spatial data requires higher computational resources than the...
