    <span style="font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;">Rules Fest, the
      <em>International Conference on Reasoning Technologies</em>, was
      established 3 years ago to present a technical forum by
      developers, for developers ... the people who are chartered with <em>computational
        reasoning</em>, the most applied category of artificial
      intelligence, to further technology development. Given the
      exhilarating, and sometimes frightening, pace with which
      technology evolves and its fickle and unpredictable propensity to
      do so, Rules Fest has diversified its technology portfolio to
      include powering the semantic web, controlling autonomous agents,
      and adding intelligence to a myriad of mobile apps. In addition,
      cloud-based technology offers a value not previously available in
      the history of computing: data and mechanics are ever-more
      accessible to developers, making the cloud more practical and
      efficient. These topics will be presented and discussed --
      formally and socially -- at the Rules Fest 2011 conference.<br>
