//
// = DESCRIPTION
//   The per-consumer filtering mechanisms.
//   The EC needs to filter data passed to the consumers, so it can
//   correctly satisfy its subscription requirements.
//   This filtering can include correlations, sequences, timeouts,
//   etc. each consumer can request different filtering criteria.
//
//   Different filtering objects are associated with each consumer,
//   the filters are organized in a hierarchical structure,
//   corresponding to the subscription "expression" that the events
//   must satisfy.
//   The hierarchy is constructed using the "Builder" pattern.
//
// = CREDITS
//   Based on previous work by Tim Harrison (harrison@cs.wustl.edu)
//   and other members of the DOC group.
