Abstract: An event management system includes an email consumer for handling email, a paging consumer, an active scripting consumer, a log file consumer, an event log consumer, and a command line consumer. The events in the event management system are represented as objects and each consumer is represented as a class. The system also includes an event forwarding consumer to forward events. The event management system allows the creation of an instance of an event filter which filters events based on event filter properties. The system also allows the creation of an instance of an event consumer which defines an action and creation of a binding between the instance of the event filter and the instance of the event consumer such that the binding includes properties identifying the instance of the event filter and the instance of the event consumer.

Abstract: An event distribution and event handling system receives a first event at a first event filter. The first event filter has a set of associated filter criteria, which is applied to the first event. If the first event satisfies the filter criteria, the first event is transformed into a second event and the second event is communicated to a second event filter having a set of associated filter criteria. The second event filter is associated with an event consumer, which performs an action if the second event satisfies the filter criteria associated with the second event filter. The second event includes an event header having a standard format and a payload having multiple payload objects.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for receiving input specified by a consumer, determining a unique product derived from the input, determining a price associated with the unique product, and displaying a visual representation of the unique product and the determined price. The apparatus, system, and method enable the consumer to select a unique product and to view a visual representation of the unique product with the determined price. The apparatus, system, and method further determine a quantity of material required to produce the unique product and an optimal delivery method for delivering the unique product.
