An event management structure for an embedded system, which supports multiple waiters waiting on the same event without replicating the events for each waiter, is provided. Notifications of events are received from entities within an embedded system. The event management architecture then posts the events to a central queue and generates a unique identification tag for each posted event. Additionally, entities within the embedded system are allowed to wait on specific events. More specifically, entities may request access to specific events based on the unique identification tag associated with a particular event. In further implementations, data associated with queued events may be provided to the waiters. In some implementations, events matching a specific description since a particular event, identified by its unique identification tag, may be requested by entities in the embedded system.
