Data series similarity search is a core operation for several data series analysis applications across many different domains. Nevertheless, even state-of-the-art techniques cannot provide the time performance required for large data series collections. We propose ParIS and ParIS+, the first disk-based data series indices carefully designed to inherently take advantage of multi-core architectures, in order to accelerate similarity search processing times. Our experiments demonstrate that ParIS+ completely removes the CPU latency during index construction for disk-resident data, and for exact query answering is up to 1 order of magnitude faster than the current state of the art index scan method, and up to 3 orders of magnitude faster than the optimized serial scan method. ParIS+ (which is an evolution of the ADS+ index) owes its efficiency to the effective use of multi-core and multi-socket architectures, in order to distribute and execute in parallel both index construction and query answering, and to the exploitation of the Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) capabilities of modern CPUs, in order to further parallelize the execution of instructions inside each core. 1 introduction [Motivation] An increasing number of applications across many diverse domains continuously produce very large amounts

Data series similarity search is a core operation for several data series analysis applications across many different domains. However, the state-of-the-art techniques fail to deliver the time performance required for interactive exploration, or analysis of large data series collections. In this work, we propose MESSI, the first data series index designed for in-memory operation on modern hardware. Our index takes advantage of the modern hardware parallelization opportunities (i.e., SIMD instructions, multi-core and multi-socket architectures), in order to accelerate both index construction and similarity search processing times. Moreover, it benefits from a careful design in the setup and coordination of the parallel workers and data structures, so that it maximizes its performance for in-memory operations. Our experiments with synthetic and real datasets demonstrate that overall MESSI is up to 4x faster at index construction, and up to 11x faster at query answering than the state-of-the-art parallel approach. MESSI is the first to answer exact similarity search queries on 100GB datasets in ∼50msec (30-75msec across diverse datasets), which enables real-time, interactive data exploration on very large data series collections.

Data series similarity search is a core operation for several data series analysis applications across many different domains. However, the state-of-the-art techniques fail to deliver the time performance required for interactive exploration, or analysis of large data series collections. In this Ph.D. work, we present the first data series indexing solutions, for both on-disk and in-memory data, that are designed to inherently take advantage of multi-core architectures, in order to accelerate similarity search processing times. Our experiments on a variety of synthetic and real data demonstrate that our approaches are up to orders of magnitude faster than the alternatives. More specifically, our on-disk solution can answer exact similarity search queries on 100GB datasets in a few seconds, and our inmemory solution in a few milliseconds, which enables real-time, interactive data exploration on very large data series collections.

This paper presents Odyssey, a novel distributed data-series processing framework that efficiently addresses the critical challenges of exhibiting good speedup and ensuring high scalability in data series processing by taking advantage of the full computational capacity of modern distributed systems comprised of multi-core servers. Odyssey addresses a number of challenges in designing efficient and highly-scalable distributed data series index, including efficient scheduling, and load-balancing without paying the prohibitive cost of moving data around. It also supports a flexible partial replication scheme, which enables Odyssey to navigate through a fundamental trade-off between data scalability and good performance during query answering. Through a wide range of configurations and using several real and synthetic datasets, our experimental analysis demonstrates that Odyssey achieves its challenging goals.
