Efficient analysis of event processing applications
Gianpaolo Cugola, Alessandro Margara, Mauro Pezzè, Matteo Pradella · 2015
Complex event processing (CEP) middleware systems are increasingly adopted to implement distributed applications: they not only dispatch events across components, but also embed part of the application logic into declarative rules that detect situations of interest from the occurrence of specific pattern of events. While this approach simplifies the development of large scale event processing applications, writing the rules that correctly capture the application domain arguably remains a difficult and error prone task, which fundamentally lacks consolidated tool support.
