EVA1 is describing a new class of emotion-aware autonomous systems delivering intelligent personal assistant functionalities. EVA requires a multidisciplinary approach, combining a number of critical building blocks into a cybernetics systems/software architecture: emotion aware systems and algorithms, multimodal interaction design, cognitive modelling, decision making and recommender systems, emotion sensing as feedback for learning, and distributed (edge) computing delivering cognitive services.

We propose to develop a framework which provides the ability to apply complex event processing in realtime domains, thus allowing an easier process of developing and maintaining specific solutions for real-time event-based systems, while upholding the real time requirements of the system. Specifically, we propose to develop a framework that includes an integrated development environment for defining rules, and, given a set of rules, generates code for a complex event processing application for which it is able to determine time bounds on the response of this application to a set of supported events. In particular, the tool helps determine a time bound for the execution time of the code corresponding to each rule. Many Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) applications, in domains such as financial services, manufacturing, gaming and military/aerospace, have real-time performance requirements. We present real-life industry use cases from these domains as motivation for the potential benefit in developing real-time complex event processing applications. In support of a feasibility argument for the proposed approach we present some preliminary experimental results obtained on a partially implemented tool.
