What I would like to find in the next column is something about backward-chaining rule engines. In fact, what has been presented only refers to forward-chaining rule engines. Backward-chaining rule engines are also very interesting. A couple of them are typically prolog-based.
For example, take a look at
http://jinniplugin.sourceforge.net.
where an IDE for a backward-chaining rule engine called Jinni is provided. |
