This kind of functionality would be VERY useful for the project I'm
working on, too. Currently, we have a large multi-agent system that is
using CLIPS 6.x (COOL) to partition the rule base. My current design for
porting this to JESS was going to involve using a separate Rete engine
for each agent (probably each in its own thread), and then providing a
mechanism for simulating CLIPS export/import functionality. If anyone
else has been looking at this kind of functionality, I'd be very
interested in starting a discussion! :)
