Thinking inside the box

Introducing new boxed expressions to DMN

As presented by:

Denis Gagné, CEO & CTO at Trisotech

Abstract

The Decision Model and Notation (DMN) standards aims at being a business-friendly language for specifying and automating business decisions. In DMN, Decision Requirement Diagrams (DRD) are visual depictions of decisions’ requirements and Boxed Expressions (BE) are visual depictions of the decisions’ logic. The current version of Boxed Expressions provides visual constructs for simple Friendly Enough Expression Language (FEEL) expressions but does not provide Boxed Expression constructs for more complex FEEL expression statements that business users struggle with.

In this presentation we will explore the problems faced by business users in specifying various more advanced FEEL statements and introduce new Boxed Expressions that address these shortcomings of the current DMN spec.
