  • On basic classification of terms
    Opher Etzion clarifies some terminology in the context of event processing: functions - what is being done; technique - how it is done; application - what it is being done for. For example, BAM is an application; business rules are a technique; CEP is a set of functions.
  • Complex Systems and CEP
    Tim Bass discusses the nature of complex systems: disorganised complexity (disparate but possibly related components) and organised complexity (systems exhibiting emergent properties). CEP is the process of making sense of the complexity. His view is that CEP is really about processing complex events in complex systems
  • Architectural Principles and Solution Architectures
    Jack van Hoof calls out the difference between architectural principles and solution architecture: Architectural principles help in decision-making, solution architectures help in building systems solutions.

Hi Neal,

Thank you for your summary.

You said "His [Tim's] view is that CEP is really about processing complex events in complex systems."

Here is what I actually said (quote):

"What is required in the evolution of our critical understanding of telecommunications and data networks as a complex system is far beyond what we are seeing in the self-described CEP commercial marketplace. What customers require are the capabilities to process complex events in and from complex systems. This capability is what we call “CEP”.

Yours faithfully, Tim
