Methods and apparatus for creation of parsing rules
First Claim
1. A method of constructing one or more message parsing rules in accordance with a user and a machine, comprising the steps of:
- obtaining message data representing past messages; and
generating one or more message parsing rules by a process based on at least one of one or more existing rule templates and user selection and classification of at least a portion of a message, wherein the one or more parsing rules are storable for access by a rule-based parsing system.

Abstract
Techniques for parsing rule creation are provided. A technique for constructing one or more message parsing rules may comprise the following steps. First, message data representing past messages, for example, associated with a network, an application and/or a system being analyzed, is obtained. For example, this may involve reading the past or historical message data from messages logs or having a system point to the message data in existing data storage. Parsing rules are then generated by a process from one or more existing rule templates and/or based on user selection and classification of at least a portion of a message. For example, the user may choose a message part and demonstratively classify the part, for example, as a positive or negative example. The generated rules may then be stored for access by a rule-based parsing system such as a message adaptation system. Prior to generation of the one or more parsing rules, a message structure may be established upon which generation of the rules may be based.
