The RuleML 2016 Challenge is one of the highlights at the RuleML 2016 Confe=
rence, and seeks=20
to provide a competition among innovative rule-oriented applications, aimed=
at both the=20
research and industrial side.
Topics
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
Key themes of the RuleML 2016 Challenge include, but are not limited to the=
following:
- Demos related to the RuleML 2016 Track Topics
- Rule-based Event Processing and Stream Reasoning
- Business Rules Modeling
- Benchmarks and comparison results for rule engines
- Distributed rule bases and rule services
- Rules and model driven engineering
- Reports on industrial experience about rule systems
- Real cases and practical experiences
- (new) Mobile deployment of rule-based reasoning, including (but not limit=
ed to):
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 o Use cases of mobile rule-based reasoning
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 o Fine-tuning reasoning techniques to cope with mobile h=
ardware limitations
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 o Realizing efficient crowd-sourced, voting-based, ... p=
rocessing, by taking advantage=20
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 of distributed mobile peer-to-peer opportuni=
ties
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 o Benchmarking mobile rule system performances, and comp=
aring it to desktop/server=20
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 performance
Tracks=20
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
This year, the challenge presents eight main themes to inspire participant =
submissions (of=20
course, submissions on other themes are welcome as well).
Rules in Retail
- When a customer enters the store and an "offer of the day" is available, =
then push only=20
=C2=A0 one welcome notification and display the offer of the day.
- When a customer watches a specific product, then push related photos and =
information,=20
=C2=A0 including social media reactions, directly to their device.
Rules in Tourism
- Deliver a welcome message to POI visitors as they arrive nearby.
- When a visitor leaves a room in the museum, then push notifications regar=
ding the next=20
=C2=A0 recommended room, based on visitors' preferences and previous visit =
history.
- When a visitor completes the tour, then push goodbye messages and notify =
on upcoming/partner=20
=C2=A0 exhibitions.
Rules in Transportation
- When arriving at car parking, then push a notification on available place=
s.
- When selecting destination and inside a bus station, then display bus dat=
a (arrival time, notices).
- When bus nears destination, then push notification on time to arrival and=
suggest accommodations.
Rules in Geography
- A region X is part of a region Y if and only if all regions that connect =
to X also connect to Y.
- Two regions X and Y are overlapped if and only if there exists a region Z=
such that Z is part of X=20
=C2=A0 and Z is part of Y.
Rules in Location-Based Search
- If less than or equal to k POIs of type X (e.g., Restaurants) are found, =
then zoom in/out on the map=20
=C2=A0 to the axis-aligned minimum bounding box of all POIs.
- If more than k POIs of type X are found, then zoom in/out on the map to t=
he axis-aligned minimum=20
=C2=A0 bounding box of the k-nearest POIs.
- If the POIs searched for are of type X then suggest to the user subtypes =
of X (e.g., Italian, Greek)=20
=C2=A0 for a subsequent (i.e., refined) search.
Rules in Insurance Regulation
- If an item is perishable and is delivered more than 10 days after the sch=
eduled delivery date,=20
=C2=A0 then it may be rejected.
- Each tax schedule must have electronic signatures from two managers.
- If an inspector believes a vehicle is repairable then process the claim a=
s a repair; otherwise=20
=C2=A0 process the claim as a total loss.
Rules in Medicine
- If a Type II diabetes patient's current level of HbA1c is high, then the =
patient's current treatment=20
=C2=A0 is ineffective.
- Issue medical alerts to patients (e.g., on a mobile device), based on hea=
lth trend analysis and=20
=C2=A0 personalizable health value limits.
- If patient has low back pain without radicular pain or neurologic finding=
s, then consider urine drug=20
=C2=A0 screening and repeat neurologic test
Rules in Ecosystem Research
- If a plot in a monitoring network satisfies a number of prespecified requ=
irements, such as being a=20
=C2=A0 long distance off from any other plot, then it is eligible for stati=
stical analysis.
- If the percentage of a target species on a plot exceeds a certain thresho=
ld, then the plot is=20
=C2=A0 treated differently in statistical analysis than plots where the tar=
get species is less abundant.
- The percentage of a target species on a plot must not vary throughout the=
analysis.
