ABSTRACT:
A rule-based data processing system includes a memory having stored therein a number of groups of agents. Each group is defined by respective sets of rules, with the system running the respective sets of rules in parallel. The agents are in two clusters: "script agents" which are arranged as a sequentially enabled chain and "operator agents" arranged to carry out selected procedural steps. The selection of the procedural step is made within each operator agent based on of one or more external factors, and is triggered by enablement of a script agent of the sequence prior to that script agent carrying a marker identifying an operator agent.
