I have been troubled by CEP marketing lately. It started when I read a statement by John Davies in his post Algorithmic trading with Twitter.
In his post, John boldly wrote to Peter Lin, and the world:
Peter,
The fuzzy logic is exactly what CEP companies specialise in, ….
-John-
I could not understand how someone who [...]

As we have seen, one of the best ways to predict global events is by placing the possible event outcomes in the community (marketplace). Here is a (free) Event Prediction Marketplace where technical folks in a community can place their virtual (not cash) bets on technology, science and technology M&A events (or non-events) such [...]

I think the following is a very good Google Adsense ad by Apama. I see this ad running on a number of sites:
Stream Processing Engine
Now you can monitor, analyze and act on streaming event data.

The ad above is accurate and does not confuse complex event processing with stream processing.
Great job Apama! Thanks for [...]

Here is an excellent Google TechTalk by Dr. Majorie Shapiro (LBL & LHC ATLAS), June 18, 2007, on processing complex events at the LHC called, Supersymmetry, Extra Dimensions and the Origin of Mass: Exploring the Nature of the Universe Using PetaScale Data Analysis.
This is really what I would call “real-time CEP.” Bean collisions at the [...]
