Chapter Chapter 11 in Agile Business Rule Development, 2011, pp 333-387 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Target audience Business analyst, developer, rule author In this chapter you will learn The different rule entry languages and rule artifacts, namely, technical rules, action rules, decision tables, decision trees, and scorecards How to build your custom rule language How to orchestrate rule execution with ruleset parameters and ruleflow How to optimize rule execution by selecting the appropriate rule execution algorithm for a given rule task Key points The Ilog Rule Language (IRL) is the foundation upon which other languages and rule artifacts are built. Action rules, decision tables, decision trees, and scorecards are translated into/executed as IRL technical rules. Be aware of the possibility to develop your own rule language (with the Business Rule Language Development Framework), but resist the temptation to. Refer to your application objects through ruleset parameters. Use ruleflows to orchestrate rule execution. They provide a high-level control mechanism and a context for rule execution. Ruleflows offer opportunities for speeding execution through run-time rule selection, and algorithm selection.
