Business Rules Forum 2008: on the Web, & Emerging Trends

Finishing up BRForum this week were 3 sessions:

A panel of worthies discussed questions on “Rules on the Web” in front of a large audience, chaired by John Hall, which turned into a panel on Rule Standards (all the panellists were involved in standards like W3C RIF, RuleML, and SBVR). So presumably “the web” is pretty irrelevant for most users.
*Another panel of worthies then discussed “Emerging Trends and Decisioning” in front of a much smaller audience, chaired by Kristen Seer. This had a bit more of interest from a CEP perspective:
- Jim Sinur commented that events, rules, processes and agility were coming together, pretty much mirroring Paul Haley’s view the day before.
- Ron Ross “confessed”, if I heard correctly, that the biggest business value of business rules were the decisions they drive.
- Jim Sinur commented on the move from a market-driven to a resource-driven economy.
- James Taylor commented that predictive analytics on pre-bust data is not going to be any worse than making no decision analysis at all.
- Jim Sinur added that there was a need to simulate rules against complex event (driven) scenarios.
The last panel of worthies discussed Rule Standards, in front of an even smaller audience. Must have been the end of the day! But we had a good discussion on the merits and roles of PRR, RIF, SBVR, BPMN etc.

So was this a worthwhile conference? Yes, as usual there were a number of great sessions. Will it happen next year? I guess that depends on how the rule market adapts to the big guys being involved. And I apologize to the TIBCO customers present for not giving any updates on iProcess Decisions…

NAME

       panel_show, show_panel, hide_panel, panel_hidden - panels deck manipulation routines

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lpanel  -lcurses  [ library .. ]
       #include <panel.h>

       int show_panel(PANEL *panel);

       int hide_panel(PANEL *panel);

       int panel_hidden(PANEL *panel);

DESCRIPTION

       show_panel() makes panel, previously hidden, visible and places it on top of the deck of panels.

       hide_panel() removes panel from the panel deck and, thus, hides it from view. The internal data structure of the panel is retained.

       panel_hidden() returns TRUE(1) or FALSE(0) indicating whether or not panel is in the deck of panels.

RETURN VALUES

       show_panel() and hide_panel() return the integer OK upon successful completion or ERR upon error.
