<h1 class="title">Rules</h1>
<p>Stanbol Rules is a component that supports the construction and
execution of inference rules. An <strong>inference rule</strong>, 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 <strong>recipe</strong>, which
identifies a set of rules that share the same business logic and interpret them
as a whole.</p>
-<p>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.</p>

+<p>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 <a
href="enhancer.html">Enhancer</a>, 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. <br />

information from different semantically enhanced contents.</p>
