The document describes the ONTORULE standards-based architecture for rule engines and ontologies. It discusses the relationship between abstract concepts and concrete implementations, and how the platform brings together foundations like replicability, adaptability, and modularity through open standards. Various abstract components and implementations are presented for ontology extraction, modeling, authoring, execution, and quality assurance.
