Overview of complex event processing technology and its application in logistics Internet of Things

Abstract

Complex Event Processing(CEP) is currently an advanced analytical technology which deals with high velocity event streams in a real-time way and primarily gets applied in Event Driven Architecture(EDA) system domain.It is helpful to realize intelligent business in many applications.For the sake of reporting its research status,the paper introduced the basic meaning and salient feature of CEP,and proposed a system architecture model composed of nine parts.Afterwards,the main constituents of the model were reviewed in terms of key technology and its formalization.In order to illustrate how to use CEP in the logistic Internet of things,an application framework with CEP infiltrating in it was also proposed here.It can be concluded that CEP has many merits and can play an important role in application fields.Finally,the shortcomings of this research domain were pointed out and future works were discussed.The paper systematically analyzed the CEP technology in terms of theory and practice so as to further develop CEP technology.
