【 摘 要 】

In this paper we present a rule-based (declarative) approach for rule verification. We focus on anomalies, which may appear in rule bases, containing production rules and semantic constraints. The presented approach defines special rules, called verifier rules, which look for anomalies in business rules. The approach is flexible and easy to maintain in the sense that verifier rules can easily be added or modified if new anomalies are found and have to be detected. Examples of verifier rules in Drools syntax are given at the end of the paper.
