چکیده
In the last few years, rules as a new focus in systems analysis have been of increasing interest. One reason for this are recent developments in active database research which have resulted in first commercially available database management systems with active components. To support this rule-based active mechanisms, it is desirable that rules can be taken into account on the conceptual level. Another important reason for focusing on rules is their importance within organizations; in this context the term business rules is used. This paper defines and structures business rules as a main component of systems analysis, presents results of a case study, and introduces a meta-model and a repository system for business rules.
