A Semantic Design Pattern Language for Complex Event Processing.
Adrian Paschke · National Conference on Artificial Intelligence · 2009
Complex Event Processing (CEP) is an emerging enabling technology to achieve relevant situational knowledge from distributed systems in real-time or almost realtime. It gains more and more attention due to the industry hype and momentum regarding situation-aware computing and service-orientation. Support for CEP is considered to become a critical success factor for many businesses, especially regarding the recent failures of many industrial ventures due to insufficient situation-awareness. However, first experiences in using the CEP technology and setting up CEP applications have shown that the potential adopters have major problems in understanding and adequately designing and implementing successful CEP solutions. CEP engineering remains a laborious trial and error process with slow development and change cycles.
