Abstract
Certain example embodiments described herein relate to techniques for introducing semantic concepts into complex event processing (CEP) systems and/or methods. In an event processing system, for example, an event bus is configured to receive a stream of events, each having a predefined event type. An event processing agent is configured to execute predefined queries on the events, with each query conforming to a query language, and with the query language being enhanced via a semantic extension corresponding to an ontology. An ontology management component in communication with the event processing agent stores mappings (optionally specified at design time) between concepts of the query language and concepts of the ontology that enhances the query language. Processing resources of the component translate (optionally at compile time) references to ontology concepts into translated queries processable by the event processing agent in accordance with the query language, without the semantic extension enhancement.
