Speeding Up Production Systems: From Concurrent Matching to Parallel Rule Firing

this memory as aunit called a Working Memory Element (WME).A rule stored in the production memory consists of a set of conditionsand a set of assertions. The rules are usually syntactically expressed withthe conditions positioned to the left of an arrow. Therefore, the conditionsare called the Left Hand Side (LHS) of the rule. Similarly, the assertions oractions, positioned to the right of the arrow, are called the Right Hand Side(RHS) of the rule. Some research groups [4] adopted a...
