Rules Development Environment

Curam Express Rules (CER) is a language for defining questions that can be asked, and the rules for determining the answers to those questions. The environment for developing CER rules is the CER Rules Editor.

In CER, each question specifies:

• The question name.
• The type of data which provides the answer to the question.
• The rules for providing the answer (if the question is asked).

The answer to a question can be as simple as yes or no. For example, the question "Is this person eligible to receive benefits?". However, CER lets you define answer types to be as complex as you need. For example, the question "Which groups of people in the household have an urgent need?" is answered by providing a list of household groups, with each household group containing a list of people.

The environment for developing CER rules is the CER Rules Editor. This editor provides a user-friendly environment and interface for both technical and business users to create, edit and validate a rule set and its rule classes. For more information on the CER Rules Editor, please see IBM Curam Express Rules Reference Manual and Working With Curam Express Rules guides
