Abstract
Certain example embodiments described herein relate to techniques for dynamically selecting rule processing modes. The processing mode does not need to be specified during rule design/authoring. Two sets of artifacts may be generated to support a desired processing mode. This may occur in the designer's local workspace, e.g., so that rule invocation can be tested locally. Additionally, or alternatively, both sets of artifacts may be installed on the rule engine running on a remote server when the project is deployed. The designer need not be aware that both sets of artifacts are being generated. In certain example embodiments, the designer may have the ability to sequence rules within metaphors (or decision entities such as decision tables), and/or the ability to sequence metaphors within rule sets. During rule invocation, a parameter may be provided to indicate the processing mode (e.g., sequential or inferential) to be used by the rule engine.
