This year, the 3rd International Symposium on Rules, Applications and Interoperability (RuleML-2009) takes place in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, collocated with the 12th Business Rules Forum, the world's largest Business Rules event. RuleML-2009 is devoted to practical distributed rule technologies and rule-based applications which need language standards for rules (inter)operating in, e.g., the Semantic Web, Multi-Agent Systems, Event-Driven Architectures, and Service-Oriented Applications. The main goal of RuleML-2009 is to stimulate the cooperation and interoperability between business and research, by bringing together rule system providers, participants in rule standardization efforts, open source communities, practitioners, and researchers. The concept of the symposium has also advanced continuously in the face of extremely rapid progress in practical rule and event processing technologies. As a result, RuleML-2009 will feature hands-on demonstrations and challenges alongside a wide range of thematic tracks, and thus will be an exciting venue to exchange new ideas and experiences on all issues related to the engineering, management, integration, interoperation and interchange of rules in open distributed environments such as the Web. Conference Theme =================================================================== This year, we particularly welcome submissions that address applications of Web rule technologies for business and information systems. We invite you to share your ideas, results, and experiences: as an industry practitioner, rule system provider, technical expert and developer, rule user or researcher, exploring foundations, developing systems and applications, or using rule-based systems. We invite high-quality submissions related to (but not limited to) one or more of the following topics: Track Topics ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rule Transformation and Extraction - Transformation and extraction with rule standards, such as SBVR, RIF and OCL - Extraction of rules from code - Transformation and extraction in the context of frameworks such as KDM (Knowledge Discovery meta-model) - Extraction of rules from natural language - Transformation or rules from one dialect into another Rules and Uncertainty - Languages for the formalization of uncertainty rules - Probabilistic, fuzzy and other rule frameworks for reasoning with uncertain or incomplete information - Handling inconsistent or disparate rules using uncertainty - Uncertainty extensions of event processing rules, business rules, reactive rules, causal rules, derivation rules, association rules, or transformation rules Rules and Norms - Methodologies for modeling regulations using both ontologies and rules - Defeasibility: modeling rule exceptions and priority relations among rule - The relationship between rules and legal argumentation schemes - Rule language requirements for the "isomorphic" modeling of legislation - Rule based inference mechanism for legal reasoning - E-contracting and automated negotiations with rule-based declarative strategies Rule-based Game AI - Rule-based movement, decision making, strategies, behavior design - Rule-based environmental programming, virtual reality - Rules for multi-agent/character games - Rules for serious games - Rule-based agent design Rule-based Event Processing and Reaction Rules - Reaction rule languages and engines (production rules, ECA rules, logic event action formalisms, vocabularies/ontologies) - State management approaches and frameworks - Concurrency control and scalability - Event and action definition, detection, consumption, termination, lifecycle management - Dynamic rule-based workflows and intelligent event processing (rule- based CEP) - Non-functional requirements, use of annotations, metadata to capture those - Design time and execution time aspects of rule-based (Semantic) Business Processes Modeling and Management - Practical and business aspects of rule-based (Semantic) Business Process Management (business scenarios, case studies, use cases etc.) Rules and Cross Industry Standards - Rules in Current Industry Standards, including: - XBRL: Extensible Business Reporting Language - MISMO: Mortgage Industry Standards Maintenance Org - FIXatdl: FIX Algorithmic Trading Definition Language - FpML: Financial products Markup Language - HL7: Health Level 7 - Acord: Association for Cooperative Operations Research and Development (Insurance Industry) - Rules for Governance, Risk, & Compliance (GRC), e.g., rules for internal audit, SOX compliance, enterprise risk management (ERM), operational risk, etc - Rules and Corporate Actions General Rule Topics - Rules and ontologies - Execution models, rule engines, and environments - From rules to FOL to modal logics - Rule-based reasoning with non-monotonic negation, modalities, deontic, temporal, priority, scoped or other rule qualification - Rule-based default reasoning with default logic, defeasible logic, and answer set programming - Graphical processing, modelling and rendering of rules - Rules in Semantic Web Technologies - Miscellaneous rule topics Case studies, experience reports, and industrial problem statements are particularly encouraged. RuleML-2009 Challenge =================================================================== The RuleML-2009 Demo Challenge is one of the highlights of RuleML-2009. We invite submissions of demo papers and demos where rules are used in interesting and practically relevant ways to, e.g., derive useful information, transform knowledge, provide decision support and provide automated rule-based monitoring, enforcement, validation or management of the behavioural logic of the application. The Challenge offers participants the chance to demonstrate their commercial and open source tools, use cases, and applications. Submissions are solicited in these categories: - Benchmarks (test cases, suites) with evaluations of (their own, other) rule engines and/or rule translators, possibly drawing on our growing pool at http://ruleml-challenge.cs.nccu.edu.tw - Case studies (use cases) implemented via engines/translators employing rule standards such as RIF, RuleML, CLIPS, Common Logic, SBVR, and ISO Prolog. We welcome all demos about tools and applications using rules such as: - Derivation rules, including query and integrity rules - ECA rules, including production rules, reaction rules, and rule-based CEP languages Authors of demo are also invited to submit a Challenge demo paper for publications in the conference proceedings, see the submission section below for submission details. Prizes will be awarded to the two best applications from each category. All accepted demos will be presented in a special Challenge Session. A submission to the RuleML Challenge has to meet the requirement that declarative rules explicitly play a central role in the application. Basically this means that: Rules are explicitly represented in a declarative format and they are decoupled from the application (rather than being compiled or hard-coded into the application logic). The demo should preferably (but not necessarily) be embedded into a web-based or distributed environment so that there will be a need for features related to the RuleML conference topics, as listed in the call for papers. For more details and the demo site web link please consult the RuleML-2009 Challenge website: http://ruleml-challenge.cs.nccu.edu.tw Student Grant Awards =================================================================== Two travel grants are available to students who are authors or co-authors of papers or demos accepted for presentation at the symposium. The grants include free registration and cover travel expenses up to 1000 dollars. Conference Language =================================================================== The official language of the conference will be English. Submission =================================================================== Authors are invited to submit original contributions of practical relevance and technical rigor in the field, experience reports and show case/use case demonstrations of effective, practical, deployable rule-based technologies or applications in distributed environments. Papers must be in English and may be submitted at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ruleml2009 as: Full Papers (15 pages in the proceedings) Short Papers (8 pages in the proceedings) RuleML-2009 Challenge Demo Paper + Show Cases (3-5 pages in the proceedings) Please upload all submissions as PDF files in LNCS format (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html). To ensure high quality, submitted papers will be carefully peer-reviewed by 3 PC members based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition. Authors are requested to upload the abstracts of their papers before June 9, 2009 and to upload their complete papers by June 16, 2009. The selected papers will be published in book form in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series along with a CD with demo software and documents. The best paper from all submissions will be determined by the PC and a Best Paper Award will be handed over at the Symposium by a Sponsor. All submissions must be done electronically. A selection of revised papers will be resubmitted to a special issue of a journal. Submissions to the RuleML Challenge 2009 consist of a demo paper of 3-5 pages, describing the demo show case, and a link to more information about the demo/show case, e.g. a project site, an online demonstration, a presentation about the demonstration, or a download site for the demonstration. In case of product demos, the link can be password-protected: please submit a password for anonymous login from any Web browser, giving us the permission to pass the password on to 3 PC members. The submissions should satisfy the minimal requirements defined in the topics of interest and preferably exhibit some of the additional desiderata. The more desiderata are met by an application, the higher the score will be. The demos will be evaluated by the RuleML-2009 Program Committee and prizes will be awarded to the two best applications, sponsored by the RuleML Inc. non-profit organization. Review Process =================================================================== The submitted papers will pass the blind review process. At least three members of the Program Committee will review each submission.
