CEP History – CEP Engines Continue to Evolve
Posted by: Tim Bass From a commercialization perspective, Mark Palmer and John Bates of Progress Apama have done a excellent job of beginning to document the history of CEP. One of the biggest problems prior to commercialization of event processing engines was that each event processing application was yet-another hand-made custom implementation. For example, in [...]

Posted by: Tim Bass In What is Complex Event Processing? (Part 5), we discussed situation refinement, the functional component of event processing that describes refining multiple event objects in order to estimate and identify business situations and scenarios in real-time. Today, in Part 6 of What is Complex Event Processing, we discuss impact assessment – [...]

(Originally Published by Tim Bass, TIBCO Software Inc., May 9, 2007) In What is Complex Event Processing? (Part 4), we discussed event refinement, also referred to as object refinement or track and trace. Today, in part 5 of What is Complex Event Processing, we discuss the heart of CEP, situation refinement. Situation refinement is the [...]

(Originally Published by Tim Bass, TIBCO Software Inc., April 30, 2007) In What is Complex Event Processing? (Part 3), we discussed event preprocessing in event processing applications. Now, in Part 4, we discuss event refinement, also referred to as object refinement or track and trace. Event refinement is the functional aspect of event processing that [...]

(Originally Published by Tim Bass, TIBCO Software Inc. , April 27, 2007) In an earlier blog entry, What is Complex Event Processing? (Part 1), we introduced a functional reference architecture for event processing. Now, we discuss another important component of distributed CEP architectures, event preprocessing. Event preprocessing is a general functionality that describes normalizing data [...]

(Originally Published by Tim Bass, TIBCO Software Inc. , April 23, 2007) In a previous blog entry, What is Complex Event Processing? (Part 1), we introduced a few basic event processing concepts and a functional reference architecture for CEP based on the JDL model for multisensor data fusion. One of the most important concept in [...]

(Originally Published by Tim Bass, TIBCO Software Inc. , April 23, 2007) Complex event processing (CEP) is an emerging network technology that creates actionable, situational knowledge from distributed message-based systems, databases and applications in real time or near real time. CEP can provide an organization with the capability to define, manage and predict events, situations, [...]
