Verbalising R2ML Rules into SBVR

Nowadays, business rules receive a lot of attention from both industry and academia, as they are considered the ideal vehicle for capturing business logic. The purpose of our paper is to raise the level of business logic abstraction with the help of existing, mature enough, R2ML language, in order to obtain higher semantic representations of rules and their basic constructs i.e. SBVR. Our paper focuses on the informal translation from R2ML derivation and integrity rules, into SBVR structured English in order to provide means for business rules validation and authorization. SBVR semantic formulations of R2ML rule sand their basic atoms are also described and exemplified, as they are the unique construct of SBVR standard, that captures and structures the meaning of rules to enable further translations into executable rule languages/engines, following MDA abstract levels of rule modeling.
