Abstract
Processing multiple kinds of event messages in a computing system includes storing the event messages as records associated with event messages. Each event message includes a timestamp and the records include a field indicating a target delivery time for an event result for the event message, the target delivery time being determined according to a kind of the event message. The event messages are processed to deliver event results based on information in the event messages and the target delivery times. Event messages are prioritized to deliver event results according to information indicating priority. A target delivery time is computed for event messages having a same priority based on fixed delays relative to their timestamps. Event results are delivered based on a comparison of their target delivery times to a clock time.
