Professor Luckham wrote about CEP and the future of global Air Traffic Control (ATC) in The Future Event Driven World: Global Air Traffic Management. One of the first commercial applications of complex event processing was in the early 1960s in the field of commercial aviation, for example see the history of Air Traffic Control.
Although experimental [...]

Folks are worried about the future of CEP.
Vendors have spun so much misinformation around the term “CEP” that this three letter acronym (TLA) has begun to have little meaning other than to reflect a confusing web of solutions overhyped around a few relatively simple stream processing engines, used primarily in financial services. Frankly speaking, in [...]

Seemingly inundated with blog posts about CEP and BRMS, it seems we should simply rename the current CEP space, BRMS. All of the current self-described CEP products on the market today are rules-engines, this includes the continuous query stream processors and the RETE engines. Furthermore, a quick review of Wikipedia says BRMS is, as follows [...]

The CEP Users Group I started on LinkedIn now has nearly 700 members. This group was created to be a users group, not a vendor product marketing group or a group for headhunters to post their job searches. For that reason, and to keep the group from future marketing spam, to be fair to all, [...]

I read the debate (here, here and here) on how Complex Event Processing (CEP) fits into the wider software architectural themes of Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) and Event Driven Architectures (EDA). More comments and blog posts followed (including this one, and this one). Frankly speaking, I was surprised to see so much misunderstanding on fundamental [...]

Recently I have been reading so many laughable posts by CEP software vendors, it makes me want to cry!
Vendors are still confusing CEP and EDA. Vendors are touting CEP as BRMS. There is so much CEP misinformation on the netwaves that it pains me to read my Google alerts these days!
I was planning to write [...]

One of the many effects of the credit crisis is that Wall Street firms have found a new focus for their complex event processing projects. Although they’re not abandoning CEP-based algorithmic trading, new CEP initiatives are focused on measuring and managing risk.
With its ability to watch and apply business [...]
