Working with Rules Engines

Rule based programming allows us to develop applications using declarative rules. These can simplify development in applications where such rules based knowledge is used for decision making.

In this presentation we will take a look at the tools and techniques for developing rule based applications. We will take a look at open source tools, discuss their strengths, capabilities, and limitations.
