Handling Overload in Publish/Subscribe Systems

— This paper proposes a new approach for handling overload in Publish/Subscribe systems. We focus on the fact that every service has to cope with the limitations imposed by the external environment (e.g., network congestion) and the limitations resulting directly from within the service itself – e.g., the maximum available computational power. This work seeks to aid Publish/Subscribe mechanisms with the ability to handle both aforementioned constraints in a graceful way, simultaneously ensuring for the most valuable information to be given the highest chance of a successful delivery.
