&lt;span style=&quot;FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial&quot;>After the discovery activities it may be important to spend some time&#xD;
to classify the rules in different categories or patterns. This will help to decide where to implement the rules, and&#xD;
help to design future rule templates. We can represent the different classification schemes for business rules using&#xD;
the following diagram:&lt;/span>&#xD;

&lt;span style=&quot;FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial&quot;>This scheme represents a conceptual breakdown of the different types&#xD;
of rules that are of interest to the business. Structural rules define the terms used by the business in expressing&#xD;
their business rules and the relationships (facts) among those terms. These comprise the vocabulary used in rule&#xD;
authoring. Structural rules are represented in ILOG JRules in the Business Object Model and externalized to rule&#xD;
authors as vocabulary (verbalizations of BOM classes and members in phrases that enable the business rules to be&#xD;
expressed in natural language.&lt;/span>&#xD;

&lt;span style=&quot;FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial&quot;>Decision logic is the core of what is typically referred to as&#xD;
‘business rules.’ When a business decision needs to be made (e.g. whether to sell a given insurance policy, whether to&#xD;
accept or reject a claim), the business rules are the individual statements of business logic that determine the result&#xD;
of the decision. The following table is coming from Barbara Von Halle’s book “Business Rule Applied”. It details those&#xD;
categories:&lt;/span>&#xD;

An important item to note in computation rules is that we need to manage the actual calculation but also if there are&#xD;
rules that are required to be managed prior to those calculations and the rules that are required to manage that are&#xD;
included in terms of the calculation – then the entire rule set needs to be managed not only just the actual&#xD;
computation rule. &amp;nbsp;&#xD;

Process flow rules are rules that purely direct the movement through a process flow (or workflow, etc.). It may be&#xD;
helpful to distinguish process flow rules from the business logic rules that determine the values of the parameters on&#xD;
which the process flow is directed.&#xD;

ETL rules, or data transformation rules, are often considered separately from other business rules, although in pattern&#xD;
they are essentially inference rules and computation rules. Data transformation rules, while important to the business,&#xD;
are a side-effect of system implementation rather than a reflection of core business logic per se. For implementation,&#xD;
the decision to use a rule engine for ETL rules should depend on whether the rules are static or dynamic, but also the&#xD;
maturity of the mapping knowledge. We used rule engine to easily implement transformation rules between two data model,&#xD;
and once the environment is more stable, some of those mapping are put back on the code.&#xD;

Classifying the rules will help to decide for the best implementation. Inference and action enabler type of rules are&#xD;
good candidates for a rule engine. Pure computation will most likely been done in code unless computation rules are&#xD;
subject to frequent changes. It is also helping to evaluate the complexity of the rule and so to evaluate the workload&#xD;
to implement it.&#xD;
