Rule Representation, Interchange and Reasoning on the Web ; International Symposium, RuleML 2008, Orlando, FL, USA, October 30-31, 2008. Proceedings
This book is organized in topical sections on rule engineering, rule-based methodologies and applications in policies, electronic contracts and security, rule representation languages and reasoning engines, rule-based methodologies and applications in distributed and heterogeneous environments, natural-language and graphical rule representation and processing, as well as exemplary contributions to the RuleML-2008 challenge.
Global Specification and Validation of Embedded Systems : Integrating Heterogeneous Components
Global modelling and validation is required to master the design of systems made of heterogeneous components. These systems are now omnipresent in our life, and they may be found in several domains such as communications (ex. mobile terminals, optical switches), health (e.g. cardiac stimulators, cochlear implants), transportation (ex. automotive and aeronautical), etc. The main difficulties for their design are modelling and validation of the interactions between different components (hardware, software, analogue, RF, optical and micro-mechanical).

Advances in Rule Interchange and Applications ; International Symposium, RuleML 2007, Orlando, Florida, October 25-26, 2007, Proceedings
The goal of RuleM is to develop an open, general, XML-based family of rule languages as intermediaries between various ‘specialized’ rule vendors, applications, industrial and academic research groups, as well as standardization efforts such as OMG’s PRR or W3C’s RIF. A general advantage of using declarative rules is that they can be easily represented in a machine-readable and platform-independent manner, often governed by an XML schema. This fits well into today’s distributed, heterogeneous Web-based system environments. Rules represented in standardized Web formats can be discovered, interchanged and invoked at runtime within and across Web systems, and can be interpreted and executed on any platform.
