The idea of Stream Reasoning originated in Politecnico di Milano in 2007, when I and Stefano Ceri were helping writing the LarKC project proposal. In the last three years, lot of investigation has been done.

Davide Barbieri, Daniele Braga, Stefano Ceri, Michael Grossniklaus, I defined the notion of RDF Stream together with an extension of SPARQL for continuous querying RDF Stream (i.e., our C-SPARQL). Most recently, we also investigated techniques for incremental reasoning on RDF streams. I was invited to give a key note in NeFoRS 2010 and I though that I should have used this opportunity to tell where Stream Reasoning research got so far.

Thanks to Frank van Harmelen and Heiner Stuckenschmidt for helping spreading Stream Reasoning concept.
There’s much more to come.
