This paper investigates the definition, detection, and management of events in the active object-oriented database system SAMOS, and presents various event specification facilities based on simple but nevertheless powerful constructs which support the modelling of time aspects.
Abstract
In this paper we investigate the definition, detection, and management of events in the active object-oriented database system SAMOS. First, we present various event specification facilities based on simple but nevertheless powerful constructs which support the modelling of time aspects as well. Second we show how events can be detected in an efficient way. Finally, we deal with the internal representation of events using the benefits of the underlying data model.

The HiPAC (High Performance ACtive database system) project addresses two critical problems in time-constrained data management: the handling of timing constraints in databases, and the avoidance of wasteful polling through the use of situation-action rules that are an integral part of the database and are monitored by DBMS's condition monitor.

288 Citations1992Narain Gehani, H. V. Jagadish +1 more
This work proposes a language for specifying composite events as eveti expressions, formed using event operators and events (primitive or composite), and shows how to efficiently implement event expressions using finite automata.
Event specification in an active object-oriented database
248 Citations1992Narain Gehani, H. V. Jagadish +1 more
A new Event-Action model is proposed, which folds into the event specification the condition part of the well-known Event-Condition- action model and avoids the multiple coupling modes between the event, condition, and action trigger components.

Detecting composite events in active database systems using Petri nets
241 Citations2002Stella Gatziu, Klaus R. Dittrich
It is demonstrated how Petri nets can be used as the basis of a mechanism suitable to model the semantics of composite events and to implement the event detector in the context of the SAMOS active database system prototype.

It is argued that ECA rules should be thought of as first class objects in an object-oriented data model and the association of timing constraints and contingency plans with rules is discussed.
Research Portal (King's College London)Rule Management in Object Oriented Databases: A Uniform Approach
140 Citations1991Óscar Díaz, Norman W. Paton +1 more
A uniform approach to adding rules to Object Oriented DBs is presented, in which rules are described and handled in the same way as any other object in the system, without any additional mechanisms being introduced.

A new perspective on rule support for object-oriented databases
88 Citations1993Eman Anwar, L. Maugis +1 more
An event interface is introduced, which extends the conventional object semantics to include the role of an event generator, and provides a basis for the specification of events spanning sets of objects, possibly from different classes, and detection of primitive and complex events.
Integrating active concepts into an object-oriented database system
76 Citations1992Stella Gatziu, Andreas Geppert +1 more
The main approach is the integration of rules in the sense of active database systems into a general object-oriented data model and the effort is also focussed on integrating the rule system with transaction processing in a meaningful way.
