Workshop topics and goals
------------------------
Event based systems are considered as a basic building block for the design of
large-scale architectures able to withstand the complexities of today's
heterogeneous and dynamic applications. Event based systems are successfully
employed in several application fields like distributed remote monitoring,
business intelligence, air traffic control or collaborative security.

The AlMoDEP workshop aims at fostering discussion on theoretical aspects of
distributed event processing among participants from different research areas
like algorithm theory, event processing, distributed systems and databases.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Event-driven interaction models
- Complex event processing
- Stream processing
- Event-routing algorithms and protocols
- Algorithms for QoS-aware event distribution
- Event algebras, event schemas and type systems
- Languages for event correlation and patterns, streaming and continuous
  queries, data fusion
- Models for static and dynamic environments
- Design and programming methodologies
- Event-based business process management and modeling
- Performance modeling and prediction based on analytic approaches

The workshop is looking for contributions addressing research, ongoing work,
ideas, concepts, and critical questions related to algorithmic and modelling 
aspects of distributed event processing systems. The final workshop program will
include both talks presenting novel contributions and two keynote presentations.
