The annual International Web Rule Symposium (RuleML) is an international academic conference on research, applications, languages and standards for rule technologies. Since 2017 it is organised as International Joint Conference on Rules and Reasoning (RuleML+RR). It is a conference in the field of rule-based programming and rule-based systems including production rules systems, logic programming rule engines, and business rules engines/business rules management systems; Semantic Web rule languages and rule standards (e.g., RuleML, LegalRuleML, Reaction RuleML, SWRL, RIF, Common Logic, PRR, Decision Model and Notation (DMN), SBVR); rule-based event processing languages (EPLs) and technologies; and research on inference rules, constraint handling rules, transformation rules, decision rules, production rules, and ECA rules. RuleML+RR is the leading conference to build bridges between academia and industry in the field of Web rules and its applications, especially as part of the semantic technology stack.[http://www.aaai.org/ojs/index.php/aimagazine/article/view/2634 A Report on the Ninth International Web Rule Symposium. AI Magazine 37(1): 105-106 (2016)]. RuleML+RR is commonly listed together with other Artificial Intelligence conferences worldwide.See, e.g., [http://academic.research.microsoft.com/RankList?entitytype=3&topDomainID=2&subDomainID=5&last=0&start=101&end=200 In Microsoft Academic Ranking of the top conference in Artificial Intelligence it is on position 114 with a field rank of 15] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121103025047/http://academic.research.microsoft.com/RankList?entitytype=3&topDomainID=2&subDomainID=5&last=0&start=101&end=200 |date=2012-11-03 }}.See, e.g., [https://web.archive.org/web/20150216011623/http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/stats/venues RuleML is in the top 100 venues for impact factor on CiteSeerX (place 71)].See, e.g., [https://scholar.google.de/scholar?q=RuleML&hl=en&as_sdt=0,5 >9100 results in Google Scholar for RuleML].See, e.g., figure 3 in [http://www.disco.ethz.ch/publications/apweb08.pdf Michael Kuhn and Roger Wattenhofer.
