Sports center customer segmentation: a case study

Customer segmentation is a fundamental process to develop effective marketing strategies, personalize customer experience and boost their retention and loyalty. This problem has been widely addressed in the scientific literature, yet no definitive solution for every case is available. A specific case study characterized by several individualizing features is thoroughly analyzed and discussed in this paper. Because of the case properties a robust and innovative approach to both data handling and analytical processes is required. The study led to a sound proposal for customer segmentation. The highlights of the proposal include a convenient data partition to decompose the problem, an adaptive distance function definition and its optimization through genetic algorithms. These comprehensive data handling strategies not only enhance the dataset reliability for segmentation analysis but also support the operational efficiency and marketing strategies of sports centers, ultimately improving the customer experience.

A Survey on Transactional Stream Processing

Transactional stream processing (TSP) strives to create a cohesive model that merges the advantages of both transactional and stream-oriented guarantees. Over the past decade, numerous endeavors have contributed to the evolution of TSP solutions, uncovering similarities and distinctions among them. Despite these advances, a universally accepted standard approach for integrating transactional functionality with stream processing remains to be established. Existing TSP solutions predominantly concentrate on specific application characteristics and involve complex design trade-offs. This survey intends to introduce TSP and present our perspective on its future progression. Our primary goals are twofold: to provide insights into the diverse TSP requirements and methodologies, and to inspire the design and development of groundbreaking TSP systems.

A Survey of State Management in Big Data Processing Systems

State management and its use in diverse applications varies widely across big data processing systems. This is evident in both the research literature and existing systems, such as Apache Flink, Apache Samza, Apache Spark, and Apache Storm. Given the pivotal role that state management plays in various use cases, in this survey, we present some of the most important uses of state as an enabler, discuss the alternative approaches used to handle and implement state, propose a taxonomy to capture the many facets of state management, and highlight new research directions. Our aim is to provide insight into disparate state management techniques, motivate others to pursue research in this area, and draw attention to some open problems.
