A collection of links for streaming algorithms and data structures

General Background and Overview

  1. Probabilistic Data Structures for Web Analytics and Data Mining : A great overview of the space of probabilistic data structures and how they are used in approximation algorithm implementation.
  2. Models and Issues in Data Stream Systems
  3. Philippe Flajolet’s contribution to streaming algorithms : A presentation by Jérémie Lumbroso that visits some of the hostorical perspectives and how it all began with Flajolet
  4. Approximate Frequency Counts over Data Streams by Gurmeet Singh Manku & Rajeev Motwani : One of the early papers on the subject.
  5. [Methods for Finding Frequent Items in Data Streams](http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.187.9800&rep=rep1&t

You're Missing the Point of Promises

This article has been given a more permanent home on my blog. Also, since it was first written, the development of the Promises/A+ specification has made the original emphasis on Promises/A seem somewhat outdated.

You're Missing the Point of Promises

Promises are a software abstraction that makes working with asynchronous operations much more pleasant. In the most basic definition, your code will move from continuation-passing style:

getTweetsFor("domenic", function (err, results) {
 // the rest of your code goes here.

First, let's talk about the SK combinator calculus and how it contributes to solving your problem.
The SK combinator calculus is made of two functions (aka combinators): S and K. It is sometimes called the SKI combinator calculus,
however, the I combinator can be derived from S and K. The key observation of SK is that it is a turing-complete system and therefore,
anything that can be expressed as SK is also turing-complete. Here is a demonstration that Scala's type system is turing-complete
(and therefore, undecidable) for example[1].
The K combinator is the most trivial of the two. It is sometimes called "const" (as in Haskell). There is also some discussion about

The K function might be paraphrased as, "takes a value and returns a (constant) unary function that always returns that value."
