Résumé: In a fast-changing data-driven world, real-time data processing systems are becoming ubiquitous in everyday applications. The increasing data we produce, such as audio, video, image, and, text are demanding quickly and efficiently computation. Stream Parallelism allows accelerating this computation for real-time processing. But it is still a challenging task and most reserved for experts. In this paper, we present SPBench, a framework for benchmarking stream processing applications. It aims to support users with a set of real-world stream processing applications, which are made accessible through an Application Programming Interface (API) and executable via Command Line Interface (CLI) to create custom benchmarks. We tested SPBench by implementing parallel benchmarks with Intel Threading Building Blocks (TBB), FastFlow, and SPar. This evaluation provided useful insights and revealed the feasibility of the proposed framework in terms of usage, customization, and performance analysis. SPBench demonstrated to be a high-level, reusable, extensible, and easy of use abstraction to build parallel stream processing benchmarks on multi-core architectures.
