The annual International Web Rule Symposium (RuleML) is an international conference on research, applications, languages and standards for rule technologies. It is a conference in the field of rule-based programming and rule-based systems including production rules systems, logic programming rule engines, and business rules engines/business rules management systems; Semantic Web rule languages and rule standards (e.g., RuleML, LegalRuleML, Reaction RuleML, SWRL, RIF, Common Logic, PRR, decision rules and decision tables (DMN), SBVR); rule-based event processing languages (EPLs) and technologies; and research on inference rules, transformation rules, decision rules, production rules, and ECA rules. RuleML is the leading conference to build bridges between academia and industry in the field of Web rules and its applications, especially as part of the semantic technology stack. RuleML is commonly listed together with and related to other major high impact Artificial Intelligence conferences worldwide. [1] [2] [3] [4]
History and past events
The conference series has been held without interruption since 2002. The RuleML Symposium has evolved from an annual series of first international workshops since 2002, international conferences in 2005 and 2006, to the premier International Symposium for the Web rules community since 2007.
A list of RuleML conferences/symposia and the contents of their proceedings (2004-2013, 2002) is provided online by the DBLP computer science bibliography project at the University of Trier.
International Rule Challenge
The International Rule Challenge is one of the highlights of the RuleML symposium. It calls for submissions of benchmarks/evaluations, demos, case studies / use cases, experience reports, best practice solutions (e.g. design patterns, reference architectures, models), rule-based implementations/ tools/ applications, demonstrations engineering methods, implementations of rule standards and industrial problem statements.
The International Rule Challenge has been held since 2007.
The International Rule Challenges have been published with additional CEUR Workshop Proceedings and among others is indexed in Scopus and Compendex. Accepted demos of the previous Int. Rule Challenges are published in the growing demo pool and a list of demo papers is provide online.
RuleML Doctoral Consortium
Since 2011 the RuleML symposium organizes a Doctoral Consortium for PhD students.
