Hello everyone, 1. If there are not many common facts i.e all rules are operating on distinct facts / data. Does this mean the algorithm will not bring in much benefit ? 2. Also if the facts are same but the LHS of a rule is quite different from others then will RETE have its benefits. I have gone through the RETE algorithm documentation and RETE node diagram chart but still finding difficulty to understand it. Can somebody please provide a layman language link to understand RETE.

Yes Mark. It is definitely beneficial. I would really appreciate your answer on my questions. I have read a lot about RETE performance boost but struggling to find answer to my questions as my understanding on RETE is limited. 1. If there are not many common facts i.e all rules are operating on distinct facts / data. Does this mean the algorithm will not bring in much benefit ? 2. Also if the facts are same but the LHS of a rule is quite different from others then will RETE have its benefits.

I hope learned people on rete and drools can help me on this.. 2010/11/11 Mark Proctor <mproctor(a)codehaus.org <mailto:mproctor@codehaus.org>> On 11/11/2010 05:28, Harshit Bapna wrote: > Hello everyone, > 1.

I would forget about the algorithm and focus on the language. Does the declarative language allow you to solve your problem in a better way?
