  • Patent number: 8631420
    Abstract: Various embodiments of systems and methods for electronic processing of context-aware business events are described. According to one aspect, business events are enriched with more business semantics by encapsulating business contexts that define the events' producing environment. The produced context-aware events include a structure of context items describing with system and application parameters the producing environment when the events originally happened. During reconstruction of the structure of context items, the contextual business information is retrieved and can be included in the business events to provide the event consumer with more information about the business event.
