Mark,
Thanks for the link. I'll look into it. I'm not sure I'll have time to learn enough about Drools to actually modify it for this project. Do you think it's not practical to attempt to build a simulator without modifying Drools?

I have read through the Documentation for Drools Expert, Flow and skimmed through Fusion and I believe that Drools looks it provides many features we need. However, I am concerned about one aspect of the way that the system seems to operate and was wondering if anyone could point me to a section of documentation (chapter of the manual / wiki / external how-to blog post... whatever) that will clear things up for me. I would like to use Drools Flow to define behaviors of agents as Flow Processes to create an agent-based simulation. This application requires that the processes are kept synchronized with each other by a simulated (faster than real time) clock. Is there a Drools mechanism that enables this? Would I need to create a set of WorkItemHandler classes that perform the synchronization manually? Is what I want to do not really practical within the Drools Flow framework? I have something prototyped and it works, but I need to refactor the api and make it much simpler. so if you use it, expect it to change a lot and get a lot simpler and better :) http://blog.athico.com/2009/07/drools-simulation-and-test-framework.html Mark Thanks in advance, Jonathan Labin _______________________________________________ rules-users mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/rules-users
