It was 1992, the Internet was still an uncertain “dream technology” by scientists, and I was working at SprintLink. My role was the lead systems engineer to set up the network and security management center for SprintLink and Managed Router Network (MRN) team.
We used HP Open View Network Node Manager (NNM) for our core network [...]

When discussing CEP and EP, someone recently blogged:
“There is even one person who declared a full fledged cyber war on anybody who uses the term “complex event processing” not in what he believes to be the original intent of past DARPA project in the area of security and military operational applications.”
Actually, I think that blogger [...]

Recently Peter Lin was kind enough to stop by and post this comment to our post, CEP Software Saves the Universe!
Here’s my [Peter Lin's] bias perspective as a user and developer of expert system shell[s]. A business rule engine, expert system shell or CEP engine at best provide[s] a foundation for creating an expert system, [...]

Paul Vincent misquotes me in his recent post, Situation Awareness in CEP…. So, keep your eyes on the blog-o-rink because it looks like there may be a lot of sparks flying between bloggers over the next few days or weeks on this topic. The problem with many folks in this dialog is that they do [...]

In a short follow-up to CEP Software Saves the Universe!, I thought it would be helpful to post some quotes from Wikipedia on reasoning and complexity.
Cognitive science sees reasoning by the analogy to a data processing, where relations between observed properties of reasoning are used in numerous models leading to evident logically correct conclusions in [...]

Professor Luckham posted a question, Is there a commercial need for quantum leap in CEP products? He then goes on to answer his own question, reminding readers of the original CEP discussion of “event hierarchies,” now an apparent “quantum leap” technology. When folks discuss “event hierarchies” they are actually discussing Classification in Complex Event Processing [...]

In Streambase Again!!!! Arghhhhh!, Marc Adler concludes,
“This is why organizations like STAC Research are so important to our industry.”
STAC has publicly stated that the stream processing engines they evaluate should not be called “complex event processing” platforms. STAC refers to these this class of software as “event processing platforms” (EPP).
“EPP is a fairly new product [...]
