Scientific and industrial examples of data streams abound in astronomy, telecommunication
operations, banking and stock-market applications, e-commerce and other fields. A
challenge imposed by continuously arriving data streams is to analyze them and to modify
the models that explain them as new data arrives. In this paper, we analyze the
requirements needed for clustering data streams. We review some of the latest algorithms in
the literature and assess if they meet these requirements.
