RIF Standard Supports Data Integration, Enterprise Agility

 Today W3C published a new standard for building rule systems on
  the Web. Declarative rules allow integration and transformation
  of data from multiple sources in a distributed, transparent and
  scalable manner. The new standard, called Rule Interchange
  Format (RIF), was developed with participation from the
  Business Rules, Logic Programming, and Semantic Web communities
  to provide interoperability and portability between many
  different systems using declarative technologies. For more
  information, see the RIF FAQ.

  http://www.w3.org/2005/rules/wiki/RIF_FAQ

  The six new standards are:

    * RIF Core Dialect, which provides a standard, base level of
      functionality for interchange
    * RIF Basic Logic Dialect and RIF Production Rule Dialect
      provided extended functionality matching two common classes
      of rule engines
    * RIF Framework for Logic Dialects describes how to extend
      RIF for use with a large class of systems
    * RIF Datatypes and Built-Ins 1.0 borrows heavily from XQuery
      and XPath for a set of basic operations
    * and RIF RDF and OWL Compatibility specifies how RIF works
      with RDF data and OWL ontologies.

  Along with these standards, W3C today published five related
  documents: "RIF Overview," "RIF Test Cases," "OWL 2 RL in
  RIF," "RIF Combination with XML data," and "RIF In RDF." The
  RIF Working Group is also preparing a primer and a revision of
  its outdated "Use Cases and Requirements." Learn more about
  the Semantic Web Activity.
