R2ML
{{cleanup rewrite|date=February 2025}}
The REWERSE Rule Markup Language (R2ML) is developed by the [http://www.rewerse.net REWERSE Working Group I1] for the purpose of rules interchange between different systems and tools.
Scope
- An XML based rule language;
- Support for: integrity rules, derivation rules, production rules and reaction rules;{{citation needed|date=October 2019|reason=need an in-context explanation of the different types of repulse supported. I have removed the speculative wikilinks for now.}}
- Integrate functional languages (such as OCL) with Datalog languages (such as SWRL);
- Serialization and interchange of rules by specific software tools;
- Integrating rule reasoning with actual server side technologies;
- Deploying, publishing and communicating rules in a network.
Design principles
- Modeled using MDA;
- Rule concepts defined with the help of MOF/UML;
- Required to accommodate:
- Web naming concepts, such as URIs and XML namespaces;
- The ontological distinction between objects and data values;
- The datatype concepts of RDF and user-defined datatypes;
- Actions (following OMG PRR submission);
- Events;
- EBNF abstract syntax;
- XML based concrete syntax validated by an XML Schema;
- Allowing different semantics for rules.
