About Rule Challenge 2016 ========================= The RuleML 2016 Challenge is one of the highlights at the RuleML 2016 Conference, and seeks to provide a competition among innovative rule-oriented applications, aimed at both the research and industrial side.
Topics ====== Key themes of the RuleML 2016 Challenge include, but are not limited to the following: - Demos related to the RuleML 2016 Track Topics - Rule-based Event Processing and Stream Reasoning - Business Rules Modeling - Benchmarks and comparison results for rule engines - Distributed rule bases and rule services - Rules and model driven engineering - Reports on industrial experience about rule systems - Real cases and practical experiences - (new) Mobile deployment of rule-based reasoning, including (but not limited to): o Use cases of mobile rule-based reasoning o Fine-tuning reasoning techniques to cope with mobile hardware limitations o Realizing efficient crowd-sourced, voting-based, ... processing, by taking advantage of distributed mobile peer-to-peer opportunities o Benchmarking mobile rule system performances, and comparing it to desktop/server performance
Tracks ====== This year, the challenge presents seven main themes to inspire participant submissions (of course, submissions on other themes are welcome as well).
Rules in Retail - When a customer enters the store and an "offer of the day" is available, then push only one welcome notification and display the offer of the day. - When a customer watches a specific product, then push related photos and information, including social media reactions, directly to their device.
Rules in Tourism - Deliver a welcome message to POI visitors as they arrive nearby. - When a visitor leaves a room in the museum, then push notifications regarding the next recommended room, based on visitors' preferences and previous visit history. - When a visitor completes the tour, then push goodbye messages and notify on upcoming/partner exhibitions.
Rules in Transportation - When arriving at car parking, then push a notification on available places. - When selecting destination and inside a bus station, then display bus data (arrival time, notices). - When bus nears destination, then push notification on time to arrival and suggest accommodations.
Rules in Medicine - Suggest medical treatments, based on Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG) encoded as rules in a Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS). - Issue medical alerts to patients (e.g., on a mobile device), based on health trend analysis and personalizable health data limits. - Aid physicians in diagnosing patients, by continuously encoding & updating medical knowledge and experience inside a rule base.
Rules in Geography - A region X is part of a region Y if and only if all regions that connect to X also connect to Y. - Two regions X and Y are overlapped if and only if there exists a region Z such that Z is part of X and Z is part of Y.
Rules in Ecosystem Research - If a plot in a monitoring network satisfies a number of prespecified requirements, such as being a long distance off from any other plot, then it is eligible for statistical analysis. - If the percentage of a target species on a plot exceeds a certain threshold, then the plot is treated differently in statistical analysis than plots where the target species is less abundant. - The percentage of a target species on a plot must not vary throughout the analysis.
Rules in Location-Based Search - If less than or equal to k POIs of type X (e.g., Restaurants) are found, then zoom in/out on the map to the axis-aligned minimum bounding box of all POIs. - If more than k POIs of type X are found, then zoom in/out on the map to the axis-aligned minimum bounding box of the k-nearest POIs. - If the POIs searched for are of type X then suggest to the user subtypes of X (e.g., Italian, Greek) for a subsequent (i.e., refined) search.
Prizes ====== As in previous editions, RuleML Inc. will offer two prizes: - RuleML Challenge Award - RuleML Challenge Runner-up Award (more details on these awards to be announced soon!)
Important Dates =============== Paper submission: June 1st, 2016 Notification: June 13th, 2016 Camera ready: June 19th, 2016 Rule Challenge 2016: July 6-9, 2016
Submission Guidelines ===================== High quality, original papers, potentially referencing online material, and ranging between 5-15 pages can be submitted at: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ruleml2016 ("10th International Rule Challenge" track).
All submissions must conform with the 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 clarity and significance of objectives and demonstration of results.
