ABSTRACT:
A system for mapping rules and objects from a database system during an inference cycle includes a database system a knowledge request translator, and an inference system. The database system stores both the facts and rules. The knowledge request translator, in response to rule retrieval requests, retrieves rules from the database system, each rule retrieval being based on rule selection criteria that are included in the rule request. The inference system generates rule retrieval requests, including rule selection criteria, for use by the knowledge request translator. The inference system initiates inference operations in connection with rules retrieved by said knowledge request translator, and facts in the database system. In initiating inference operations, the inference system supplies fact criteria to the knowledge request translator, which generates, in response thereto, database inquiries to initiate pattern matching operations in connection with the facts in the database system. The results of the pattern matching operations are used in connection with subsequent processing during the inference operations.
