Event Tunnel: Exploring Event-Driven Business Processes

Abstract. Event processing rules may be prescribed in many different ways, including by finite state machines, graphical methods, ECA (event-conditionaction) rules or reactive rules that are triggered by event patterns. In this paper, we present a model for defining event relationships for event processing rules. We propose a so-called correlation set allowing users to graphically model the event correlation aspects of a rule. We illustrate our approach with the eventbased system SARI (Sense and Respond Infrastructure) which uses correlation sets as part of rule definitions for the discovery of event patterns. We have fully implemented the proposed approach and compare it with alternative correlation approaches.

“…And fourth, sensor networks are used as the elements that capture data from the environment and push it into the event processing system. The processing of RFID events is approached by using CEP in [17]. Some of the issues related to the nature of RFID events, including aggregation of events, high volumes of data and on-the-fly processing, are addressed with a framework.…”

SUMMARYA variety of ubiquitous computing devices, such as radio frequency identification (RFID) and wireless sensor network (WSN), are generating huge and significant events that should be rapidly processed for business excellence. In this paper, we describe how complex event processing (CEP) technology can be applied to ubiquitous process management based on context-awareness. To address the issue, we propose a method for context-aware event processing using event processing language (EPL) statement. Specifically, the semantics of a situation drive the transformation of EPL statement templates into executable EPL statements. The proposed method is implemented in the domain of ubiquitous cold chain logistics management. With the proposed method, context-aware event processing can be realized to enhance business performance and excellence in ubiquitous computing environments.

“…In the rule management client, business operators then assemble rules as natural-language sentences from sodefined clauses. On the event analysis side of the architecture, business operators may investigate historical event data using the Event Analyzer [21], a rich visualization and data mining framework tailored to the specific characteristics of (possibly complex) events. To shorten the navigation through potentially vast amounts of event data, business operators are provided with so-called visualization templates for event data that are assumed to be relevant in the given domain.…”

Abstract-Complex Event Processing (CEP) enables companies to monitor and control business processes in near real time. Despite the vast potential of generic CEP frameworks, experience showed that adopters are often overwhelmed with the inherent complexity of CEP, and heavily rely on external expertise to set up the required event-processing logic. In this paper we present a novel approach to creating, packaging and deploying event-based applications. Based on the eventprocessing framework SARI, so-called solution templates allow offering well-proven, standardized event-processing logic for common business needs. Delivering many benefits of off-theshelf software while maintaining the flexibility of a CEP-based architecture, solution templates can easily be tailored to the specific business processes and needs of an individual corporation by customer-side domain experts. Real-time event processing logic is assembled from predefined, easy-to-use building blocks, in a way that fully abstracts from the underlying complexity. Event analysis is supported by predefined configurations for querying and visualizing historic event data. We demonstrate our approach using a real-world application from the workload automation domain.
