The 3rd International Symposium on Rules, Applications and Interoperability (RuleML-2009) will take place in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, collocated with the 12th Business Rules Forum, the world's largest Business Rules event, from November 5-7, 2009. RuleML-2009 is devoted to practical distributed rule technologies and rule-based applications. 

The main goal of RuleML-2009 is to stimulate the cooperation and interoperability between business and research, by bringing together rule system providers, participants in rule standardization efforts, open source communities, practitioners, and researchers. The concept of the symposium has also advanced continuously in the face of extremely rapid progress in practical rule and event processing technologies. As a result, RuleML-2009 will feature hands-on demonstrations and challenges alongside a wide range of thematic tracks, thus and will be an exciting venue to exchange new ideas and experiences on all issues related to the engineering, management, integration, interoperation and interchange of rules in open distributed environments such as the Web.
