            <div>Hi,<br>
              <br>
              Thanks for your prompt reply. Actually, I'm not into
              middle of writing some rules. I'm working to implement
              Drools in a NMS product. Where Root-Cause Analysis is done
              to identify the exact problem in a network.<br>
              <br>
              I'm initially working on a POC trying to identify pros and
              cons.<br>
              The approximate scenarios include<br>
              <ul>
                <li>timing window</li>
                <li>generating new co-related events</li>
                <li>escalation, and so on....</li>
              </ul>
              <br>
              I'm not looking for a solution here. At least, I've not
              grown to that extent in Drools. I'm expecting someone to
              guide me. Is the resources I have is sufficient or is
              there some other resources available elsewhere?<br>
              <br>
              To be more precise, I want to the following<br>
              <ul>
                <li>possible keywords in a .drl file</li>
                <li>sematics</li>
                <li>syntax, and</li>
                <li>usage</li>
              </ul>

                        <div>Hi,<br>
                          <br>
                          I'm a newbie to Drools and Rules. I see this
                          Mailing list provides lot of valuable
                          information regarding Drools.<br>
                          Actually I'm looking for some good resources
                          which helps in writing Rules. I.e Rule Syntax
                          and Semantics. It's since 3 months I have
                          started showing interest in Drools. But still
                          I can't proceed more than the examples given
                          in the books, which is not sufficient to work
                          on real time projects.<br>
                          <br>
                          I'm referring books like<br>
                          1. Drools JBoss Rules 5.0<br>
                          2. JBoss Drools Business Rules<br>
                          also,<br>
                          1. Drools documentation and Manuals.<br>
                          <br>
                          But still there's no definitive guides for
                          writing rules. The Drools Documentation has
                          listed all the possible keywords. But, their
                          Syntax and Semantics are missing.<br>
                          I went through this entire Mailing List hoping
                          someone would have asked this question before
                          me. But in vain. <br>
                          <br>
                          So, please refer/point me some good resources
                          for Rules. Because in Drools, I believe,
                          everything is possible only through Rules.<br>
                          <br>
                          Thanks and Regards,<br>
