<br>
Writing individual rules is quick, bad for maintenance, and probably<br>
best, if a session has only a few inputs as it starts fast from a<br>
precompiled rule base.<br>
<br>
Parameter facts take a little time for development, are very good for<br>
maintenance (see below) and have a tolerable overhead if they are not<br>
too numerous and/or the session runs long.<br>
<br>
What should be considered is that a set of parameter facts can be<br>
maintained by non-technical personnel, e.g., in a spreadsheet or in<br>
some other data preparation tool. This could be a boon for long-ter<br>
maintenance.<br>
