Abstract
A computer hardware-implemented method, system, and/or computer program product prevents a cascading failure in a complex stream computer system causing an untrustworthy output from the complex stream computer system. Multiple upstream subcomponents in a complex stream computer system generate multiple outputs, which are used as inputs to a downstream subcomponent, wherein the multiple upstream subcomponents execute upstream computational processes. An accuracy value is assigned to each of the multiple outputs from the upstream subcomponents, and weighting values are assigned to each of the inputs to the downstream subcomponent. If using the accuracy values and weighting values fails to adjust the downstream subcomponent to meet a predefined trustworthiness level for making a first type of prediction, then a new downstream computational process that produces a different second type of prediction is executed.
