An abstract base class for integer values High Dynamic Range (HDR) Histograms

AbstractHistogram supports the recording and analyzing sampled data value counts across a configurable integer value range with configurable value precision within the range. Value precision is expressed as the number of significant digits in the value recording, and provides control over value quantization behavior across the value range and the subsequent value resolution at any given level.

For example, a Histogram could be configured to track the counts of observed integer values between 0 and 3,600,000,000 while maintaining a value precision of 3 significant digits across that range. Value quantization within the range will thus be no larger than 1/1,000th (or 0.1%) of any value. This example Histogram could be used to track and analyze the counts of observed response times ranging between 1 microsecond and 1 hour in magnitude, while maintaining a value resolution of 1 microsecond up to 1 millisecond, a resolution of 1 millisecond (or better) up to one second, and a resolution of 1 second (or better) up to 1,000 seconds. At it's maximum tracked value (1 hour), it would still maintain a resolution of 3.6 seconds (or better).

See package description for org.HdrHistogram for details.

  • Constructor Details

    • AbstractHistogram

      protected AbstractHistogram(int numberOfSignificantValueDigits)
      Construct an auto-resizing histogram with a lowest discernible value of 1 and an auto-adjusting highestTrackableValue. Can auto-resize up to track values up to (Long.MAX_VALUE / 2).
      Parameters:
      numberOfSignificantValueDigits - The number of significant decimal digits to which the histogram will maintain value resolution and separation. Must be a non-negative integer between 0 and 5.

    • AbstractHistogram

      protected AbstractHistogram(long lowestDiscernibleValue, long highestTrackableValue, int numberOfSignificantValueDigits)
      Construct a histogram given the Lowest and Highest values to be tracked and a number of significant decimal digits. Providing a lowestDiscernibleValue is useful is situations where the units used for the histogram's values are much smaller that the minimal accuracy required. E.g. when tracking time values stated in nanosecond units, where the minimal accuracy required is a microsecond, the proper value for lowestDiscernibleValue would be 1000.
      Parameters:
      lowestDiscernibleValue - The lowest value that can be discerned (distinguished from 0) by the histogram. Must be a positive integer that is >= 1. May be internally rounded down to nearest power of 2.
      highestTrackableValue - The highest value to be tracked by the histogram. Must be a positive integer that is >= (2 * lowestDiscernibleValue).
      numberOfSignificantValueDigits - The number of significant decimal digits to which the histogram will maintain value resolution and separation. Must be a non-negative integer between 0 and 5.

      recordValue in interface ValueRecorder
      Parameters:
      value - The value to be recorded
      Throws:
      ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException - (may throw) if value is exceeds highestTrackableValue

    • recordValueWithCount

      Parameters:
      value - The value to be recorded
      count - The number of occurrences of this value to record

    • recordValueWithExpectedInterval

      public void recordValueWithExpectedInterval(long value, long expectedIntervalBetweenValueSamples) throws ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
      Record a value in the histogram.

      To compensate for the loss of sampled values when a recorded value is larger than the expected interval between value samples, Histogram will auto-generate an additional series of decreasingly-smaller (down to the expectedIntervalBetweenValueSamples) value records.

      Note: This is a at-recording correction method, as opposed to the post-recording correction method provided by copyCorrectedForCoordinatedOmission(long). The two methods are mutually exclusive, and only one of the two should be be used on a given data set to correct for the same coordinated omission issue.

      See notes in the description of the Histogram calls for an illustration of why this corrective behavior is important.

    • shiftValuesLeft

      public void shiftValuesLeft(int numberOfBinaryOrdersOfMagnitude)

An ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException will be thrown if any recorded values may be lost as a result of the attempted operation, reflecting an "overflow" conditions. Expect such an overflow exception if the operation would cause the current maxValue to be scaled to a value that is outside of the covered value range.
      Parameters:
      numberOfBinaryOrdersOfMagnitude - The number of binary orders of magnitude to shift by

    • shiftValuesRight

      public void shiftValuesRight(int numberOfBinaryOrdersOfMagnitude)
      Shift recorded values to the right (the equivalent of a >> shift operation on all recorded values). The configured integer value range limits and value precision setting will remain unchanged.

      Shift right operations that do not underflow are reversible with a shift left operation with no loss of information. An ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException reflecting an "underflow" conditions will be thrown if any recorded values may lose representation accuracy as a result of the attempted shift operation.

      For a shift of a single order of magnitude, expect such an underflow exception if any recorded non-zero values up to [numberOfSignificantValueDigits (rounded up to nearest power of 2) multiplied by (2 ^ numberOfBinaryOrdersOfMagnitude) currently exist in the histogram.

      Parameters:
      numberOfBinaryOrdersOfMagnitude - The number of binary orders of magnitude to shift by
