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 [...]

Following up on KMeans Clustering Now Running on Elastic MapReduce, Stephen Green has generously documented the steps that was necessary to get an example of k-Means clustering up and running on Amazon’s Elastic MapReduce (EMR) on the Apache Lucene Mahout wiki.
Mahout on Elastic MapReduce by Stephen Green
As a side note, there has been considerable [...]

The Amazon Elastic MapReduce team has a sample application, CloudFront LogAnalyzer, designed to analyze Amazon CloudFront access logs. This tool provided users with the power of Amazon Elastic MapReduce to quickly turn access log data into actionable intelligence.
Access logs are activity records about all requests delivered through Amazon CloudFront and contains a valuable set [...]

In A Review of Zabbix - Zabbix Rules! (Part 1) we provided a brief introduction to Zabbix in the context of network and security management. In this post I will discuss Zabbix as an event processing platform.
Zabbix is like most event processing platforms. Zabbix provides both agent-initiated events as well as server-requested events. [...]

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 [...]

Using NIST as computer science reference, an online algorithm is an algorithm that processes data (including events) element-by-element (and event-by-event), serially without having the entire problem space available from the beginning. In contrast, an offline algorithm is provided the entire problem set from the start.
Hence, real-time event processing applications generally involve online processing. Offline processing is useful when creating models [...]
