Talk:Production system (computer science)
It might be nice to add a list of production rule systems (besides OPS5) -- just an idea
I don't care.
I don't know if it makes sense to merge these, but if not it certainly does make sense to have them link to each other. expert system is the real mess!--Jaibe 21:05, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
Merge
Production system, Business rules engine, production system, inference engine, all those are basically the same notion, alll these articles needs to be merged in the same document, maybe we can have differents paragraphs for each, but they are basically the same thing--Kompere (talk) 14:57, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
They are not basically the same notion. Production systems are a family of methods that can be applied to various tasks (graphics for example, with L-Systems), business rules engines are one application of them. Business logic and inference engines can be implemented as a production system but need not be. The merge call is therefore not well founded. Merging production systems with business logic and inference engines would be like merging the entry on First Person Shooters with the entries on Quake Wars and OpenGL. --62.172.138.4 (talk) 12:15, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
