Putting events in context
Adrian Holzer, Lukasz Ziarek, K. R. Jayaram, Patrick Th. Eugster · 2011
Event-based programming is an appealing paradigm for developing pervasive systems since events enable the decoupling of interacting components. Unfortunately, many event-based languages and systems have hardwired notions of physical or logical time and space. This limits their adaptability and target deployment environments, as pervasive systems rely on inherent interaction and interchanging of different protocols and infrastructures.
