Abstract

In this paper, we propose a complex event processing framework on top of MapReduce, which may be widely used in many fields, such as the RFID monitoring and tracking, the intrusion detection and so on. In our framework, data collectors collect events and upload them to distributed file systems asynchronously. Then the MapReduce programming model is utilized to detect and identify events in parallel. Meanwhile, our framework also supports continuous queries over event streams by the cache mechanism. In order to reduce the delay of detecting and processing events, we replace the merge-sort phase in MapReduce tasks with hybrid sort. Also, the results can be responded in the real-time manner to users using the feedback mechanism. The feasibility and efficiency of our proposed framework are verified by the experiments.
