Here is an amazing video by Pattie Maes from MIT Media Lab, presented at TED. Pattie presents a wearable device cobbled together for around $350 dollars that consists of a camera, a small projector with a mirror, and a device to communicate with a cell phone. I want to thank Perderabo over at The UNIX [...]

Here is a bit of good news for the complex event processing space. Folks on the Apache Mahout developers mailing list are showing an accelerated interest in topics related to real-time decision-making, starting with a Markov decision process. The Hidden Markov Model (HMM) is listed under “non map-reduce algorithms” on the Mahout wiki. The developer’s [...]

I was pleased to read the Paul Vincent’s post, TIBCO BusinessEvents 3.0. TIBCO has always had a forward thinking vision for distributed computing and this release of BE 3.0 is another step in the right direction. TIBCO now has the only commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) event processing platform on the market that supports distributed event processing, multi-agent [...]

A post in Technology content of current CEP products? reminds me of why I rarely, if ever, agree with anything that comes out of Aleri’s marketing team. To fair to Jeff, it is not only Aleri but others, who continually misdefine business process management (BPM) as CEP.
Jeff uses the example, “Smart Order Routing” as an example of [...]

Alan Lundberg wrote, Intelligent Business Process Platform? in response to Bringing Order to Chaos where someone from PWC linked event processing to business intelligence and business process management. In turn, James Taylor penned Using decision management to deliver intelligent business performance where James rightly said that it does not require “heroic efforts” to integrate event processing, BI, BPM and [...]

It was not too long ago that I penned Keyloggers: Why Banks Need Two-Factor Authentication. In that post, I briefly mentioned how a number of banks in Thailand use inexpensive SMS-based two-factor authentication (2FA) with one-time password (OTP) to authenticate transactions.
One of my favorite banks in Thailand is K-Bank. With K-Bank I can simply walk [...]

A blackboard architecture is a distributed computing architecture where distributed applications, modelled as intelligent agents, share a common data structure called the “blackboard” and a scheduling/control process. The blackboard can be either centeralized or distributed, depending on the requirements and constraints of the application(s).
To solve a complex problem in the blackboard-style, the intelligent [...]
