In Corticon, rule assets are the essential files that meld the Corticon Rule Language with the structure and typing you created in a vocabulary (.ecore) onto worksheets (.ers) that define the rules and embeds other worksheets into a Ruleflow (.erf) that can be packaged and deployed. Some designs have hundreds of rules in dozens of Ruleflows that use an elaborate Vocabulary of entities, attributes, and associations to define a single Decision Service.

A Corticon Decision Service has all its rule assets embedded in a compiled Decision Service.
