Abstract

Certain example embodiments described herein relate to forecasting the future behavior of event streams in Complex Event Processing (CEP) environments. For each received event in an event stream, a reference window indicative of a predefined temporal range during which the forecast is to be computed is updated so that the reference window ends with the received event, with the reference window moving with the event stream. Within this processing loop, when a forecasting update policy indicates that the forecast is to be updated based on the received event: a forecasting window indicative of a temporal range in which events are to be forecasted is updated; and while the time period of the forecasting window is not exceeded, (a) a next forecasted event is generated via at least one processor and (b) the next forecasted event is inserted into the forecast window; and the forecast window is published.
