Rule Base Inheritance
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract We study the transposition of the inheritance mechanism of class-based languages in a forward-chaining rule-based environment. This mechanism allows to specify various levels of organization for a rule base, which represent a notion of generalization/specialization. We show that this mechanism has some interesting practical effects : a conceptual one (the vision of a rule base as a specialization of other rule bases), and in relation with control (the inheritance tree is associated to a particular control structure). We describe our implementation of the mechanism in the NéOpus system, which integrates first order forward-chaining rules within Smalltalk-80. We finally give some examples of applications.

Rule firing with metarules
We describe a technique for the control of production rules firing in an object-oriented setting. This technique is based on the separation of control rules from ordinary domain rules. Control rules operate on "control objects" which are created during the reasoning process of the rule base under control. They constitute a separate and independent rule base which contains a declarative specific...
متن کاملInheritance rules for flexible model retrieval 1 Hai
Convenient model management requires flexible model retrieval. This paper presents a new flexible retrieval approach for mathematical model bases. The approach defines a multi-valued model inheritance relationship among models at a signature level. The inheritance provides a rich semantic information for the retrieval mechanism to refine inexact retrieval requirements. An inheritance rules reas...
متن کاملA Critical Study of the Well-known Opinion of Shiite Jurists on the Inheritance of a Bastard
According to the well-known opinion of Shiite jurists a child born out of wedlock is prohibited from inheriting from his/her own natural parents. This rule, however, is not among those consensual laws which accept no new rereading. The evidence supporting this law is, basically, some single hadiths (khabar wāhid) which suffer from weakness in terms of authenticity and indication and implication...
متن کاملReport on the NéOpus system experience
The NéOpus system integrates production rules with Smalltalk objects in a seamless way, avoiding the so-called "impedance mismatch problem" by proposing a rule formalism which does not constraint the objects and expressions used in condition or action parts. We outline here the basic asumptions underlying the design of the Opus and NéOpus systems, and stress on two original features of NéOpus t...
متن کاملRule-based of Monetary Policy in Iran Inspired by McCallum Rule
Economists have reached a consensus that an independent central bank could improve its policy efficiency by following a monetary policy rule. One of the important rules is McCallum rule where that requires central banks to target the growth rate of nominal GDP using the monetary base as its instrument. One of the features of the McCallum rule uses the monetary base rather than the interest rate...
