| | WYSIWYG Editors And Bad Markup |
 | | Markup that is not based on standards and that does not follow best practices can therefore be considered "bad". | | | Below is an example of a data table, where the data in the table can only be understood in relation to column and/ or row headers. | | | Business users love to copy content from Microsoft Word then paste it into WYSIWYG editors. |

| | Gross Profit Margin And Markup |
| | While computing markup for an entire year for a business is very simple, using this valuable markup tool daily to work up price quotes is a bit more complicated. | | | Computing markup on last year’s numbers helps you understand where you have been and gives you a benchmark for success. | | | But computing markup on individual jobs will affect your business going forward and can often make the difference in running a profitable operation. |

| | Cover Pages: Business Rules Markup Language (BRML) |
| | Motivated by the importance of the content language aspect of agent communication, we focus in particular on business rules as a form of content that is important in e-commerce applications such as bidding negotiations. | | | CommonRules is a rule-based framework for developing rule-based applications with major emphasis on maximum separation of business logic and data, conflict handling, and interoperability of rules. | | | We argue for an XML encoding of business rules content, and give an alpha version of it, called Business Rules Markup Language (BRML), which we have implemented. |

| | Our reusable technology for business rules and rule-based intelligent agents is embodied as an extensible structured Java library, called CommonRules (formerly called DIPLOMAT; follow-on to RAISE and Agent Building Environment implemented in C++). | | | The courteous expressive extension provides some "common-sense" reasoning capabilities, in the sense of knowledge representation theory and artificial intelligence, because the prioritized conflict handling enables rules to be specified in a more modular and natural style, closer to natural language and object-oriented subclassing/inheritance. | | | New pilot applications for these fundamental business rules techniques in intelligent agents and e-commerce. |

| | Cover Pages: Workshop on Rule Markup Languages for Business Rules on the Semantic Web. |
| | Rule markup languages "support the expression of business rules as modular, stand-alone units in a declarative way and the publication/exchange of these rules between different systems and tools. | | | Whenever a rule refers to an incomplete predicate, for which explicit negative information has to be represented along with ordinary (positive) information, a second negation, supplementing negation-as-failure, is needed (as in the formalism of extended logic programs). | | | The organizing committee welcomes submissions on all topics related to rule markup languages; in particular, they encourage papers on reaction rules in the Semantic Web (event/action languages, execution models) and on defeasible rules in the Semantic Web (defeasible concept definitions in ontologies, resolving conflicts in triggered action sets). |
