Agenda● Other ways to express rules ○ Domain Specific Languages ○ Decision Tables

Other ways to express rules ● DSL -> Express Rules in natural Language● SpreadSheets -> Express rules as decision tables

Domain Specific LanguagesExample:DRL:Song(genre == "Jazz")DSL: [Condition]There is a Jazz Song = Song(genre == "Jazz")

Domain Specific Languages● Focused on Subject Matter Experts● Natural Language● Can be used in guided editor● Its just mapping your business language in DRL

DSL ExampleDSL files have two main sections (condition / consequence) with thefollowing semantics: [condition or consequence] natural language expression = drools mapping/execution expressionDSL semantics allow binding of variables in the natural languageexpression to the drools expression: When the user is called {userName} = User(name== "{userName}")DSL resources must be added to kbuilder previous to DSLR
