Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of managing decision logic. The method includes receiving data, storing the data, and receiving a set of rules. A decision is generated based at least in part on the data and on the set of rules, and is a part of the decision logic. The decision logic is managed in a first mode or a second mode. When in the first mode or the second mode, the set of rules is managed in the context of the data by a first user. The managing includes reviewing and editing the set of rules for the decision logic in the context of the data. The editing is done by at least one of (i) modifying a rule in the set of rules, (ii) creating another rule and adding it to the set of rules and (iii) making an exception to a rule in the set of rules.

Abstract: The present invention is a method of creating decision logic. A first set of rules for the decision logic is received. The user is queried for data and this data is stored in a memory. A first decision is generated for a user based at least in part on the data. Input is received from the user for editing the first set of rules to create a new set of rules for the decision logic in the context of data. A final decision is generated derived at least in part from the data using the new set of rules.

Abstract: The present invention is a method for business users to collaborate on a decision within a decision bubble. A decision bubble is a specifically created environment in which a group of collaborators can interact with the purpose of creating and modifying decisions or business rules, and through which the system captures interactions between collaborators and enables traceability with respect to the resulting decisions. Using a lightweight business process, a decision bubble is initiated by a business user, the bubble owner, and can have in its scope any section of the decisions being managed. The bubble owner may issue invitations to the bubble to collaborators, some of which may be suggested by the system using a reputation system that scores users with respect to types of tasks and entities. The decision bubble contains all the contextual information required for the bubble collaborators to collaborate on the implementation or modifications of the decisions or rules.
