Input

Output

U At Risk Model Convertible Price Potential Theft Rating
Boolean Boolean Currency ($) {High, Moderate,Low}
1 True - - High
2 False True - High
3 False False >45K High
4 False False [20K...45K] Moderate
5 False False <20K Low

But wait... There's more!

Traditional Execution

Information doesn't
do anything. 

We do things with
information.

The Knowledge Base Paradigm

A Knowledge Base System as a multi-directional execution system for DMN

Knowledge Base System

based on

First Order Logic
