Description:	Open-source rule engine, and lightweight Business Rule Engine (aka Rule-Based Engine). NxBRE offers to approaches: - the Flow Engine, which uses XML as a way to control process flow for an application in an external entity. It is basically a wrapper on C#, as it offers all its flow control commands (if/then/else, while, foreach), plus a context of business objects and results. It is a port of Sloan Seaman's JxBRE v1.7.1 (Java platform) to C#. - the Inference Engine, which is a forward-chaining (data driven) deduction engine and that supports concepts like Facts, Queries and Implications (as defined in RuleML 0.8 Datalog) and like Rule Priority, Mutual Exclusion and Precondition (as found in many commercial engines). It is designed in a way that encourages the separation of roles between the expert who designs the business rules and the programmer who binds them to the business objects.
