Stanbol Rules is a component that supports the construction and execution of
inference rules. An __inference rule__, or transformation rule, is a syntactic
rule or function which takes premises and returns a conclusion. Stanbol Rules
allows to add a layer for expressing business logics by means of axioms, which
encode the inference rules. These axioms can be organized into a container
called __recipe__, which identifies a set of rules that share the same business
logic and interpret them as a whole.
-For instance, with Stanbol Rules the administrator can define integrity checks
for data fetched from heterogeneous and external sources in order to prevent
unwanted formats or inconsistent data. Also, Stanbol Rules can be used to
derive new knowledge or integrate information from different semantically
enhanced contents.
+## Usage Scenarios
+
+### Integrity check from data fusion
+With Stanbol Rules the administrator can define integrity checks for data
fetched from heterogeneous and external sources in order to prevent unwanted
formats or inconsistent data.
+In such a way the administrator is able to configure the CMS in order filter
knowledge retrieved in Linked Data, e.g., via the [Enhancer](enhancer.html),
that satisfies some integrity driven constraint. The constraint can be defined
by means of Stanbol Rules.
+For instance in a CMS which collects core knowledge about musicians it might
possible to define integrity check rules which keep only entities that are
typed as Musicians in DBpedia <a href="#dbpedia">[5]</a> and have an associated
image, a birth place and the instrument played.
+Any other entity not satisfying the constraints is discarded.

+Also, Stanbol Rules can be used to derive new knowledge or integrate
information from different semantically enhanced contents.
