RuleML-2008Devoted to practical distributed rule technologies
and rule-based applications Semantic Web, Intelligent Multi-Agent Systems, Event-
Driven Architectures and Service-Oriented Computing Applications
Collocated with 11th International Business Rules Forum
2nd RuleML symposium (highly successful RuleML-2007)
Goal to bring together rule system providers, rule standardization efforts and open source rules communities, practitioners and technical experts, developers, users, and researchers.

The RuleML Initiative (http://www.ruleml.org)
Organized by representatives from academia, industry and government for promotion of the modern and future generations of rule technology, which provides enhanced usability, scalability and performance.
Goal: to be a general and open intermediary between various “specialized” rule vendors, applications, industrial and research working groups and standardization efforts.
