Performance Modeling of Stream Joins

Streaming analysis is widely used in a variety of environments, from cloud computing infrastructures up to the network's edge. In these contexts, accurate modeling of streaming operators' performance enables fine-grained prediction of applications' behavior without the need of costly monitoring. This is of utmost importance for computationally-expensive operators like stream joins, that observe throughput and latency very sensitive to rate-varying data streams, especially when deterministic processing is required.
