From event streams to process models and back: Challenges and opportunities

作者:

Highlights:

• Complex event processing (CEP) and business process management (BPM) can mutually benefit through a convergence of formalisms and methods from both worlds.

• For quadrants are discussed in detail: two for using CEP to create or extend process models and two on how process models can guide CEP.

• Challenges and opportunities for this combination are identified as a sound basis for future research agenda and applications.

• Identified issues bear cross-quadrant relevance and should be addressed fundamentally, not in the context of a specific application.
