| Abstract | These three technologies were and still are mainly treated separately. Since notmuch work has been carried out in defining and combining them together, we are going topresent what has been done and put accent on what could be done. Namely, they rely uponsimilar paradigms and concepts, as will be shown later on, and can be treated ascomplementary technologies. In this paper we will show that reactive agents reactaccording to some set of business rules and active databases can be used as a suitablemeans for implementing business rules and in those way reactive agents as well. Sincereactive agents have been well defined, recent improvements in the fields of activedatabases technology and especially business rules provide the reason to consider thebenefits to be achieved from combining these fields. |
