Abstract

Making a database system active entails developing an expressive event specification language with well-defined semantics, algorithms for the detection of composite events, and an architecture for an event detector along with its implementation. This paper presents the semantics of composite events using the notion of a global event history (or a global event log). Parameter contexts are introduced and precisely defined to facilitate efficient management and detection of composite events. Finally an architecture and the implementation of a composite event detector is analysed in the context of an object-oriented active DBMS.
