Abstract
A rule-partitioning system for converting at least a portion of a target expert system program to a rule partitioned RETE network for execution on multiple processors, including a rule partitioning portion for assigning different rules of the target expert system program to different partitions on the basis of previously collected processing statistics and on the use of node sharing; and a compiler for converting the target expert system program to the RETE network, wherein the rules of the RETE network are assigned to the multiple processors in accordance with the partition assignments.
