Run-time composite event recognition
Alexander Artikis, Marek J. Sergot, Γεώργιος Παλιούρας · 2012
Events are particularly important pieces of knowledge, as they represent activities of special significance within an organisation: the automated recognition of events is of utmost importance. We present RTEC, an Event Calculus dialect for run-time event recognition and its Prolog implementation. RTEC includes a number of novel techniques allowing for efficient run-time recognition, scalable to large data streams. It can be used in applications where data might arrive with a delay from, or might be revised by, the underlying event sources. We evaluate RTEC using a real-world application.
