  • Inheritance and relationship to directory information in an e-commerce application
    Patent number: 7171400
    Abstract: A system and method for dynamically determining a set of relevant rule instances based on a set of context attribute values comprising a directory server, an attribute data store, and a rules engine. The directory server includes rule instances having hierarchical structure. The attribute data store has a hierarchical structure and is configured to provide a set of hierarchically relevant context attribute values optimized from the rule instances, based on the set of context attribute values. The rules engine is configured to provide the set of context attribute values to the attribute data store in accordance with the context from the context provider, and to determine a set of relevant rule instances, based on the hierarchically relevant context attribute values from the attribute data store.

  • Hierarchical rule determination system
    Publication number: 20030069737
    Abstract: A system and method for dynamically determining applicable rule instances and a rule value utilizing a hierarchical context, hierarchically specified ruled with inheritance, and a hierarchically relevant conflict resolution strategy. The system includes a context provider, an attribute data store, and a rules engine. The context provider is configured to provide a context comprising an application configuration parameter and the set of context attribute values. The attribute data store has a hierarchical structure and is configured to provide a set of hierarchically relevant context attribute values, based on the set of context attribute values. The attribute data store is designed to permit the clear specification of rules and their applicability conditions.
