Abstract
Stream processing can be performed using a pull-based, anchor-based methodology that guarantees once and only once processing and repeatability of the creation of output with no additional communication overhead during normal processing. Each node (computing device) in the graph (representing interconnected computing devices) establishes a system of anchors. An anchor describes a point in the output stream of the node, so that every event in the stream is either before or after any given anchor.
