Business-oriented development methodology for complex event processing: demonstration of an integrated approach for process monitoring

In this demonstration, we showcase an integrated approach for event-driven process monitoring in the Internet of Services. Our business-oriented development methodology for Complex Event Processing (CEP) utilizes the idea of the Zachman framework with modeling on different perspectives. Starting with the Business Motivation Model (BMM) on a strategic perspective, an Event Hierarchy with key performance indicators (KPIs), objectives, noticeable situations and reactions is successively built in a top-down approach. The demonstration includes an Eclipse-based prototype for modeling and a runtime component using the open source CEP engine Esper with a seamless integration.
