Survey of Event Processing
Thomas John Owens · 2007
In the past decade, event processing technology has exploded from research at universities to a number of commercial products. In this paper, event processing technology will be reviewed, starting with the motivations behind its development and ending with a look into the future of event processing. A number of important topics closely related to event processing will also be examined, including applications of the technology, various academic and commercial implementations, event processing languages, and benchmarking techniques for event processing engines.
