• A Closer Look at the Java Rules Engine API (JSR 94) by Benoy Jose   - [Clicks: 195]
  The most frustrating part of a project is change and the sad reality is that change is inevitable. To help us deal with this Benoy investigates the new Java Rules Engine API, which defines guidelines to provide a common API for use in rule engines.

• Author of FuzzyJess Talks About AI and Java by Jason Morris   - [Clicks: 74]
  Bob Orchard is the author of FuzzyJess, the Java-based, fuzzy logic API extension to Jess, and a veteran of many expert systems projects. In this interview, he discusses the state of artificial intelligence (AI), expert systems (ES), and the richness of possibilities for Java developers to utilize his tools for building fuzzy rule-based expert systems.

• Ruling Out: Rule Engines and Declarative Programming Come to Java by N. Alex Rupp   - [Clicks: 115]
  Rule engines and declarative programming offer a markedly different style of programming, one that's particularly well-suited to certain kinds of applications. N. Alex Rupp kicks off his "Ruling Out" column with an introduction to the rule engine JSR and how this technology can be used.

• The Logic of the Bottom Line: An Introduction to the Drools Project by N. Alex Rupp   - [Clicks: 85]
  Part one of this article revisits an old concept and introduces a new technology for the Java Enterprise developer's utility belt. I'll discuss how Rules Engines can improve the agility of your business by helping you isolate the "logic of the bottom line" from the technical logic of your software applications. I'll also introduce the JSR-94 Rules Engine API and an Open Source product called Drools, the forerunner implementation of this up-and-coming technology. In part two, we'll revisit our examples in greater depth and take a closer look at some of the intricacies of both the Drools engine and its JSR-94 extensions.

• JESS by Mark Maslyn   - [Clicks: 20]
  The Java Expert System Shell (JESS) is a rule engine and scripting environment written entirely in Java. You write declarative rules, if/then, and the system generates code that does artificial reasoning to find solutions to your constraints. Using Jess, you can build Java software that has the capacity to "reason" using knowledge you supply in the form of declarative rules. Jess is small, light, and one of the fastest rule engines available. Come learn the foundational concepts of rule programming and describing in the Jess language.

• JRules - A brief overview by Simon Harris   - [Clicks: 38]
  As requested, my brief overview of JRules. I'm sure I will have failed to answer many questions so feel free to ask. If I know the answer, I'll add it to the entry, othwerwise I'll either cop out and say I don't know or go and find out. As always, if I've made a mistake or three, feel free to point them out.
