Rete-ECA: A Rule-based System for Device Control

摘要

This paper propose a new rule match algorithm, called Rete-ECA, based on Rete for context-aware device control environment. The Rete-ECA exploits the natural Event-Condition-Action feature of device control situations. This enables the implemtation of the Rete-ECA algorithm to perform better than the Rete algorithm with smaller size and more flexibility. The Rete-ECA system is evaluated using a mouse-tracking environment. Rete-ECA consumes about 2% of the clock ticks consumed by original Rete.
