Provided techniques manage and predict future events. For example, in a payment implementation, a supplier, at any given point in time, has multiple customer debtors that may owe payments (e.g., have outstanding invoices). Utilizing historical attributes for a given customer debtor payment predictions may be determined. By analyzing outstanding debts associated with this debtor customer an amount owed may be calculated and a predicted payment (e.g., a payment that has not yet been indicated by that debtor customer) created. Events may be provided to a second system to correlate predictions across multiple debtor collectors. Correlated information may be used to predict cash flow needs of an organization. Alternatively, optimization of help desk systems may be provided based on predictions from analysis of multiple events in an Event-driven feed back system. Provided techniques may be generalized to other applications as well.
