> Below is the stacktrace for the NPE, it appears to be an issue when accumulate function is called under multi-threading condition. Please look at the remove function in the RightTupleIndexHashTable.java file. The remove function does not appear to have proper null checking around the "current" object.
>    public void remove(final RightTuple rightTuple) {
>         RightTupleList memory = rightTuple.getMemory();
>         memory.remove( rightTuple );
>         this.factSize--;
>         if ( memory.first == null ) {
>             final int index = indexOf( memory.hashCode(),
>                                        this.table.length );
>             RightTupleList previous = null;
>             RightTupleList current = (RightTupleList) this.table[index];
>             while ( current != memory ) {  
>                 previous = current;
>                 current = (RightTupleList) current.getNext();
>             }
>             if ( previous != null ) {
>                 previous.next = current.next;
>             } else {
>                 this.table[index] = current.next;
>             }
>             this.size--;
