Overview Motivation Streaming databases Streaming knowledge bases Experiments and results Conclusions Motivation Stream DBs Stream KBs Experiments Conclusions
Operating Room of the Future drugs • ORs will be awash in low-level data, much of it noisy or incomplete • Challenges include coping with the noise and interpreting the low-level data to recognize high-level events and activities RFID RFID ORF tools AwarePoint WIFI patient Monitors Bluetooth devices staff Motivation Stream DBs Stream KBs Experiments Conclusions
Initial work in OR training • UMD Mastri Center is experimenting with OR technologies and training environments • The Human Patient Simulator from METI • Designed to react like a human • Responds to medical treatment • Generates continuous streams of data, moderated by • Initial conditions (e.g. blunt trauma multiple injuries scenario) • human interactions Motivation Stream DBs Stream KBs Experiments Conclusions
Results Results Query Data Efficient Data Stream Management Index Queries Index Data Traditional DBMS Stream Management System • Data is stored/indexed in system • Queries applied to stored data as they “stream through” • Queries stored/indexed in system • Data applied to stored queries as they “stream through” Several efforts: Tapestry, Aurora, TelegraphCQ Motivation Stream DBs Stream KBs Experiments Conclusions

What’s wrong with this picture? We need to enhance this to support semantic interoperability for medical data & knowledge The medial community has a long history developing & using standard ontologies & metadata Incoming streams of data can be in rdf And reference terms in appropriate ontologies Motivation Stream DBs Stream KBs Experiments Conclusions
What’s wrong with this picture? • Streaming Database systems use continuous queries specified over a sliding time window • e.g., [range by ‘30 seconds’ slide by ‘10 seconds’] • Issues: • Where do we we do reasoning? • How do we answer queries against a sliding window of data? Motivation Stream DBs Stream KBs Experiments Conclusions

Experiments and results • Three simple reasoners • Jena, in core • Pre-computed custom hash tables • Using tables in TelegraphCQ • Various scenarios • Ontology size: 118 - 23.1 MB • Number of subclasses: 49 - 57,000 • Subclass depth: 2 - 9 • Data rate: 1 - 50 triples per second
Domain Example • Monitor data stream looking for observations of invasive species from Bioblitz and eco-blogging data streams • Uses our Ethan ontologies for ecoinformatics • Tree of life (~340K taxons from ITIS and other sources) • Species profiles • Invasive species definitions • Observation
Conclusions If the incoming triple data rate goes beyond a certain limit, the reasoning speed starts to lag and tends to slow down the incoming stream. The speedup achieved by using TCQ and a hashtable prove the value of pre-processing an ontology, particularly for fast streaming facts.
