Patent Images
1. A computer system for context-driven automated transactions comprising:
- a semantic network comprising data that forms a plurality of objects;
at least one relation between pairs of the plurality of objects, wherein each relation defines one or more rules between the pairs, and wherein the relations and objects form a context for the data; and
a monitoring system that monitors the objects and relations, and automatically triggers a transaction upon recognizing a change in any of the rules or objects, wherein the transaction includes a change to related objects based on the relations.

Abstract
In a business environment, a method for executing context-driven transactions includes defining one or more relations among two or more objects in a semantic network, and defining one or more rules relating to the relations. The “transaction” refers to a request or a sequence of information exchanges for one or more objects. The method includes monitoring the semantic network for changes in any of the objects and relations, and upon detecting a change, automatically triggering a transaction based upon a rule in the system.
