Nile: a query processing engine for data streams

We present the demonstration of the design of "STEAM", Purdue Boiler Makers' stream database system that allows for the processing of continuous and snap-shot queries over data streams. Specifically, the demonstration focuses on the query processing engine, "Nile". Nile extends the query processor engine of an object-relational database management system, PREDATOR, to process continuous queries over data streams. Nile supports extended SQL operators that handle sliding-window execution as an approach to restrict the size of the stored state in operators such as join.
