Use this page to define notification channels.
Notification
channels define the filter criteria for a given subscriber that should
be called for an event. A subscriber is a program subscribing all,
or a defined subset of, the events arriving for a given event group.
It dispatches the arriving events to Location Awareness Services for WebSphere® Sensor Events notification
programs, which are programs or Web services that can be triggered
when an event is logged.
