Domain-specific languages in Prolog for declarative expert knowledge in rules and ontologies

Based on the declarative rules and the integration with the Prolog-based deductive database system DDbase, multiple rules acquired in practical case studies can be combined, compared, graphically analysed by domain-experts, and evaluated, resulting in an extensible system for expert knowledge. As a result, the actual modeling Dsl becomes executable; the declarative forward-chaining evaluation of deductive databases can be understood by the domain experts. Our Dsl for rules can be further improved by integrating ontologies and rule annotations.
