Batched Processing for Information Filters

This paper describes batching, a novel technique in order to improve the throughput of an information filter (e.g. message broker or publish & subscribe system). Rather than processing each message individually, incoming messages are reordered, grouped and a whole group of similar messages is processed. This paper presents alternative strategies to do batching. Extensive performance experiments are conducted on those strategies in order to compare their tradeoffs.
