Robust Processing of Health Stream Data
SESSION: Doctoral Showcase - Early Research Showcase
EVENT TYPE: Doctoral Showcase - Early Research Showcases
TIME: 3:30PM - 5:00PM
SESSION CHAIR: Wojtek James Goscinski
Presenter(s):Kathleen Ericson
ROOM:601/603
ABSTRACT:
Personal health sensors offer the potential to reduce economic costs and improve outcomes. If data from from personal health sensors can be processed in a timely, robust, and failure-resilient manner patients would be able to leave the hospital sooner after major surgeries and those who require full-time care facilities may be able to stay at home, freeing limited health care resources for emergencies.
Efficient scheduling is needed to meet processing guarantees. Optimal placements are an instance of the resource-constrained scheduling problem, either NP-hard or NP-complete depending on problem characterization. Our focus is to use statistical and ML algorithms to guide placements to satisfy constraints in real time.
We have implemented fault-tolerance through replication and leveraged replicas to enable migrations for load-balancing purposes, allowing quick migrations. We also developed monitoring tools, allowing us to track resource usage on a per-computation basis which can help drive load balancing and computation placement strategies.
