    Abstract: Techniques for generating software code for event processing applications are described herein. In one example, a method can include detecting, via a processor, a concept model, wherein the concept model comprises concept data related to an actor, an event, a domain, and a fact. The method can also include detecting, via the processor, a logic model comprising logic data related to event derivation and fact computation, wherein the logic model is not based on an operating environment. The method can also include creating, via the processor, a set of inferences that indicate a relationship between the concept data and the logic data. In addition, the method can include validating, via the processor, an accuracy of the logic model based on validation data, and generating, via the processor, software code based on the concept model and the logic model.

  • Patent number: 8073801
    Abstract: A business decision modeling system graphically models business decisions using a rule family structure that adheres to Decision Model principles. In tabular representations, for example, two-dimensional rule families have a heading and a body. The heading includes one or more condition fact types and one conclusion fact type. The body includes unique logic statements corresponding with the heading's fact types, with operators and operands indicating how the logic operates on conditions to determine conclusions. All tested conditions fact types must be true for the conclusion fact type to be true. No two rule families can have the same conclusion fact type, and the conclusion fact type of a first rule family can be a condition fact type of a second rule family. Logic statements are atomic and cannot be further decomposed. The semantic and business integrity of the business rules ensure high quality logic traceable to business objectives.
