Distributed Event-Based Systems
The International Conference on Distributed Event-Based Systems (DEBS) is held annually, aiming to achieve at least:
- Publication and dissemination of original academic research
- Sharing relevant experiences in the deployment and use of event-based computing
Event-based systems are gaining prominence in many application domains, such as:
- real-time data processing in web environments,
- logistics and networking,
- complex event processing in finance and security.
Event-based principles underlay many paradigms in event-driven architectures, systems processing big data, the Internet of Things, business process management, publish/subscribe systems, particular types of web services, message-oriented middleware and stream processing systems.
The DEBS conference provides a forum for researchers and practitioners to share their experiences and help shape future approaches to common problems. The conference typically has a broad international delegation, that spans both academia and industry.
History
The DEBS event began as a series of five workshops run annually from 2002 to 2006. These DEBS workshops were co-located variously with ICDCS, SIGMOD/PODS and ICSE.[1]
The inaugural DEBS conference was held in 2007, in Toronto, Canada,[2] and has been held annually since.
