Abstract

A computer system controls processing elements associated with a stream computing application. A stream computing application is monitored for the occurrence of one or more conditions. One or more processing element groups are determined to be restarted based on occurrence of the one or more conditions, wherein the processing element groups each include a plurality of processing elements associated with the stream computing application. Each processing element of the determined one or more processing element groups is concurrently restarted. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and program product for controlling processing elements within a stream computing application in substantially the same manner described above.
