Abstract :
The performance of various methods for the implementation of large production rule bases is studied. The authors first give a brief overview of the basic techniques, and then present some optimization alternatives for one of them. The results obtained indicate that both the Rete network method and the one based on COND relations are feasible in a relational database system environment. One major advantage of the method based on COND relations is that it localizes the search for applicable rules. That is, for a given update to the database only a single relation (the corresponding COND relation) needs to be searched
