Abstract
A method and related system to concurrently process a temporal message stream. The method comprises obtaining messages of a message stream, each message having an associated timestamp. The method further comprises storing each message in at least one of a plurality of queues, wherein the messages of each queue are ordered based on their timestamp such that a message with the earliest timestamp is positioned at the front of the queue. The method then comprises controlling retrieval of the target message from the front of a target queue based on a timing difference between the timestamp of the message and the timestamps of the front message of each of the other queues of the plurality of queues.
