Abstract
Complex Event Processing – the identification of event patterns in event streams, the analysis of their impact, and the execution of corresponding actions – is gaining momentum within various research disciplines and business areas. However, one of the major problems associated with Complex Event Processing is its lack of usability, especially the complexity of its management, preventing its wide diffusion and adoption by users. This usability issue is addressed in this paper by applying Business Process Modeling Notation as graphical support for the definition of complex event patterns.
