Opher (as chair of the
Event Processing Technical Society) just sent out an email to EPTS members, reminding us of the progress on EPTS working groups. EPTS is a lightweight, low-cost industry body of Event Processing vendors, users, analysts and researchers: in some ways EPTS is following the role played by
BPMI, remembered for kick-starting the (now prevalent)
BPM industry.
Current workgroups up for discussion and approval by members include:
- Glossary (continuing work from the current EPTS Glossary version 1.1) - standardized terminology
- Use Cases (continuing work) - standardized format for describing use cases
- Interoperability Analysis - how EP tools can interoperate
- Languages Analysis - potential metalanguages for describing EP constructs, possibly aiding interoperability in the longer term
- Metamodelling - support for existing and future EP-related model standardization efforts in the official standards bodies like OASIS, W3C and OMG
- Reference Architectures - continuing some of the earlier work on common architectures for describing EP systems
EPTS members will be discussing and voting on these over the next few weeks.
[Disclosure: TIBCO is a member of the EPTS Steering Committee, and is co-chairing the Metamodel and Reference Architecture workgroup proposals.]
