This year the ACM Distributed Event Based Systems conference (i.e. the CEP conference for researchers) is taking place at IBM Research, York Town Heights, New York in July this year. Highlights in past years included the Industrial Track and Tutorials: for example in 2009 Richard Tibbetts taught about CEP in Capital Markets, and in 2010 Prof Mike Franklin presented Truviso’s story on Continuous Analytics.
This year the Industrial Track has 2 options to make life easier for those of us busy in the world of commerce and/or not in the business of writing conference papers. These are:
- Industry Track papers from industry researchers on commercially-based algorithms and developments (~10 pages)
- Industry Experience papers from CEP implementors on interesting applications of CEP (~4 pages)
The Call For Papers mentions possible areas as event processing in…
- ETL and System Integration across business systems,
- real-time customer recommendations and notifications,
- augmenting business processes, business process management, and case management,
- use of functional, logical, and/or statistical methods,
- software architectures based on or incorporating distributed event-centric computing and event processing networks,
- SLA enforcement, governance, or regulatory compliance,
- security and defense/defense-related intelligence, including sensor interpretation and command and control,
- fault tolerance and disaster recovery approaches,
- cloud-based architectures,
- real-time analytics and information discovery, including new event pattern discovery,
- monitoring and interpretation of event streams,
- adaptations of existing commercial software solutions, systems and technologies to exploit event processing techniques,
- business value demonstrations.
Should be interesting, and hopefully some of the CEP community will find time to submit their latest and greatest as papers at this event…
