[rules-users] Re: scheduled starting of a ruleflow-group / drools fusion docs

[Edson Tirelli]

   Do you know the concept of sliding time windows? Meaning you define a
time interval, for instance the last 30 seconds, so at time T30, the window
contains anything that happened between T1 and T30. At T31, it forgets
anything that happened on T1 and the window now contains everything from T2
to T31, and so on.

   So, think about sliding windows as a filter.

StockTick( symbol == "RHAT" ) over window:time( 60s )

   The pattern above will match all StockTicks whose symbol is RHAT and that
happened in the last 60 seconds. Since time is continuous (unless you use a
pseudo clock that you control manually), events will age and fall outside
the boundary of the window (in this case, older than 60 seconds). When that
happens, they will expired and will no longer match.

   Once a regular activation is created, it will remain in the agenda until
it is fired. Even if the event expires before the activation is fired. The
only "special case" for this are the aggregations, that are constantly
updated and at fire time, will contain the current result.

   Over is just the keyword used to introduce behaviors of a pattern, like
time windows, length windows and so on. Hopefully docs will contain a better
explanation.
