New Rule Responder HCLS Use Case

Dear Susie,

Unfortunately, I can not participate in the HCLS RDF telecon today since I
will travel to a one-week REWERSE meeting later.

But I would like to announce a new Rule Responder use case for Health Care
and Life Science. 

http://ibis.in.tum.de/projects/paw/hcls/

This use case develops a rule-based eScience inference infrastructure in the
domain of Health Care and Life Science, which will dynamically integrate, by
the use of rules and common query languages, existing Web-based scientific
services and data sources. Following the idea of Web Services and Grid
infrastructures this use case addresses the problem of rule-based
heterogeneous data integration from Web sources/services and service
composition. That is, it provides semantic-enriched rule-based inference
(e.g. to implement expert decision logic) and dynamic access to web-based
service, e.g. the EMBL-EBI patent database
(http://srs.ebi.ac.uk/srsbin/cgi-bin/wgetz?-page+query+-id+3BCib1WGHAl) W3C
HCLS knowledge base (http://sw.neurocommons.org/2007/kb.html), SWAN
(http://swan.mindinformatics.org/), GoPubMed (http://www.gopubmed.org/).
Web-based service and data sources can be easily integrated using the rich
query built-ins of Prova for SQL, SPARQL, RDF Triples, RDFS/OWL DL
reasoning, XPath/XQuery.

I would be happy to give a demo about it in one of the next HCLS RDF
telecons, e.g. on December, 10th; if possible combined with the promised
demo about goPubMed (http://www.gopubmed.org/).

The Rule Responder architecture consists of four essential parts:

1. RuleML / Reaction RuleML as common platform-independent (PIM layer) rule
/ message interchange format:

http://www.ruleml.org/

2. Prova as a rule-based message / process flow engine used to describe and
execute in a declarative rule-based way the flow of inbound/outbound
messages between rule inference endpoints (arbitrary rule engines /
inference services) 

http://www.prova.ws/

3. The Rule Responder middleware with an integrated enterprise service bus
used as communication middleware to transport messages over 30 different
transport protocols (such as JMS, HTTP, SOAP) and as Web-based object-broker
to install distributed inference services (rule engines).

http://responder.ruleml.org/

4. Arbitrary platform-specific rule engines (e.g. OO-jDrew, Prova etc.) (PSM
layer) deployed as inference services on the ESB to answer queries and
execute rules wrt to the local rule bases of the rule engines.
