Opher Etzion responds to the onging confusion with On basic classification of terms. First of all, there has been confusion in the CEP/EP community since the term “CEP” was coined, so the confusion is nothing new. Second, one of the main sources of confusion is the Event Processing Technical Society (EPTS), chaired by Opher. The [...]

Many folks have been sending me email, inquiring if I will be attending the Gartner Event Processing Summit, September 15-16 or the 4th Event Processing Symposium, September 17-19, 2008 (the EPTS meeting). I regret not attending either event this year and will miss getting together with everyone. In addition, I would like to thank Opher and the EPTS team for [...]

A post in Technology content of current CEP products? reminds me of why I rarely, if ever, agree with anything that comes out of Aleri’s marketing team. To fair to Jeff, it is not only Aleri but others, who continually misdefine business process management (BPM) as CEP.
Jeff uses the example, “Smart Order Routing” as an example of [...]

For interested readers, here are the event processing definitions we provided to the (future) EPTS working group on September 20, 2006, coordinated (edited) by David Luckham and Roy Schulte;
adaptive process management (n.) an element of resource and business process management, adaptive search and event processing. Sometimes referred to as “Level 4” event processing or process refinement.

A number of months ago we posted Some Comments on the EPTS Member Agreement where we concluded, in summary:
“I have quite a few other concerns the with EPTS Member Agreement. Basically, the agreement needs to be written with an eye toward a more flexible, open and inclusive process that puts the future of the EPTS square into [...]

I am back at the glaring computer screen after a day in Lamphun, Northern Thailand, hanging out will my friends who are preparing for a Bonsai tree competition. I spent the day eating Thai and Chinese food and relaxing in a lounge chair under imported blue palm trees with the sound of exotic birds making background music to [...]

In CEP as a Discipline, David Luckham wrote:
“Actually, it is fair to say that some of CEP can be found in other disciplines. Event processing has been going on in one form or another, for the past 50 years. Simulation, Networking, Active DBs, Middleware.
{ …. }
CEP has only just begun. The foundations are unexplored. Its [...]

Folks defining CEP, and now this new term IEP, have been very passionate over the past few years that “Complex Event Processing” means the Processing of “Complex Events” not the “Complex Processing” of Events.
Grammatically speaking, it follows that Complex is an adjective describing a noun, Event; and Processing is a verb.
Complex events are defined by the same community as composite [...]
