Composite Event Specification in Active Databases: Model & Implementation

Summary: Proposes a language of composite event expressions for active databases that maps event histories to histories of firing events. Adds pipes and correlation variables to isolate sub-histories and coordinate sub-events, with attributes for primitive/composite events, and implements recognition via automata for efficient trigger firing.
