Book Reasoning in Event Based Distributed Systems

Download or read book Reasoning in Event Based Distributed Systems written by Sven Helmer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-06-17 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the rapid expansion of the Internet over the last 20 years, event-based distributed systems are playing an increasingly important role in a broad range of application domains, including enterprise management, environmental monitoring, information dissemination, finance, pervasive systems, autonomic computing, collaborative working and learning, and geo-spatial systems. Many different architectures, languages and technologies are being used for implementing event-based distributed systems, and much of the development has been undertaken independently by different communities. However, a common factor is an ever-increasing complexity. Users and developers expect that such systems are able not only to handle large volumes of simple events but also to detect complex patterns of events that may be spatially distributed and may span significant periods of time. Intelligent and logic-based approaches provide sound foundations for addressing many of the research challenges faced and this book covers a broad range of recent advances, contributed by leading experts in the field. It presents a comprehensive view of reasoning in event-based distributed systems, bringing together reviews of the state-of-the art, new research contributions, and an extensive set of references. It will serve as a valuable resource for students, faculty and researchers as well as industry practitioners responsible for new systems development.

Book The Power of Events

Download or read book The Power of Events written by David C. Luckham and published by Addison-Wesley Professional. This book was released on 2002 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Complex Event Processing (CEP) is a defined set of tools and techniques for analyzing and controlling the complex series of interrelated events that drive modern distributed information systems. This emerging technology helps IS and IT professionals understand what is happening within the system, quickly identify and solve problems, and more effectively utilize events for enhanced operation, performance, and security. CEP can be applied to a broad spectrum of information system challenges, including business process automation, schedule and control processes, network monitoring and performance prediction, and intrusion detection. "The Power of Events" introduces CEP and shows specifically how this innovative technology can be utilized to enhance the quality of large-scale, distributed enterprise systems. The book describes the challenges faced by today's information systems, explains fundamental CEP concepts, and highlights CEP's role within a complex and evolving contemporary context. After thoroughly introducing the concept, the book moves on to a more detailed, technical explanation of CEP, featuring the Rapide(TM) event pattern language, reactive event pattern rules, event pattern constraints, and event processing agents. It offers practical advice on building CEP-based solutions that solve real world IS/IT problems. Readers will learn about such essential topics as: Managing the open electronic enterprise in the "global event cloud"Process architectures and on-the-fly process evolutionEvents, timing, causality, and aggregationEvent patterns and event abstraction hierarchiesCausal event tracking and information gapsMultiple views and hierarchical viewingDynamic process architecturesThe Rapide event pattern languageEvent pattern rules, constraints, and agentsEvent processing networks (EPNs)Causal models and event pattern mapsImplementing event abstraction hierarchies Several comprehensive case studies illustrate the benefits of CEP, as well as key strategies for applying the technology. Examples include the real-time monitoring of events flowing between the business processes of collaborating enterprises, and a hierarchically organized set of event-driven views of a financial trading system. One of the case studies shows how to apply CEP to network viewing and intrusion detection. The book concludes with a look at building an infrastructure for CEP, showing how the technology can provide a significant competitive advantage amidst the myriad of event-driven, Internet-based applications now coming onto the market. 0201727897B05172002

Book Event Processing and Stream Reasoning with ETALIS

Download or read book Event Processing and Stream Reasoning with ETALIS written by Darko Aničić and published by Sudwestdeutscher Verlag Fur Hochschulschriften AG. This book was released on 2012 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We face today a paradigm shift toward the real time information processing, and Event Processing (EP) has therefore spawned significant attention in science and technology. Due to omnipresence of events, EP is becoming a central aspect of new distributed systems such as cloud computing and smart grid systems, mobile and sensor-based systems, as well as of a number of application areas including financial services, business intelligence, social and collaborative networking, click stream analysis and others. However in many applications to process only events is insufficient. Detection of complex situations very often involves evaluation of background knowledge too. This knowledge captures the domain of interest (context). This book presents the ETALIS Language for Events (ELE), which is a declarative rule-based language for processing events in the context of background (domain) knowledge. The book explores how stream reasoning capabilities together with EP capabilities of ELE have the potential to provide powerful real time intelligence. Finally, to demonstrate usefulness of ETALIS approach, the book presents a few scenarios with an existing open source implementation.

Book Reasoning About Knowledge

Download or read book Reasoning About Knowledge written by Ronald Fagin and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2004-01-09 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reasoning about knowledge—particularly the knowledge of agents who reason about the world and each other's knowledge—was once the exclusive province of philosophers and puzzle solvers. More recently, this type of reasoning has been shown to play a key role in a surprising number of contexts, from understanding conversations to the analysis of distributed computer algorithms. Reasoning About Knowledge is the first book to provide a general discussion of approaches to reasoning about knowledge and its applications to distributed systems, artificial intelligence, and game theory. It brings eight years of work by the authors into a cohesive framework for understanding and analyzing reasoning about knowledge that is intuitive, mathematically well founded, useful in practice, and widely applicable. The book is almost completely self-contained and should be accessible to readers in a variety of disciplines, including computer science, artificial intelligence, linguistics, philosophy, cognitive science, and game theory. Each chapter includes exercises and bibliographic notes.

Book Event Processing in Action

Download or read book Event Processing in Action written by Peter Niblett and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-08-14 with total page 666 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike traditional information systems which work by issuing requests and waiting for responses, event-driven systems are designed to process events as they occur, allowing the system to observe, react dynamically, and issue personalized data depending on the recipient and situation. Event Processing in Action introduces the major concepts of event-driven architectures and shows how to use, design, and build event processing systems and applications. Written for working software architects and developers, the book looks at practical examples and provides an in-depth explanation of their architecture and implementation. Since patterns connect the events that occur in any system, the book also presents common event-driven patterns and explains how to detect and implement them. Throughout the book, readers follow a comprehensive use case that incorporates all event processing programming styles in practice today. Purchase of the print book comes with an offer of a free PDF, ePub, and Kindle eBook from Manning. Also available is all code from the book.
