ATM Semantic Rules

Description

Our client needed to consolidate a number of code bases into one. One of the major problems was that though the code was similar it was invoked in different order and with different error handling at the end of each step.

Solution

Our solution was to create a rules library. Each rule was a granular set of code that identified with a specific semantic check for provisioning ATM. When a programmer wished to use the rules library, they would identify which rules to invoke, the order they wished to invoke them in and what error handling should be performed. The solution provided an easy way to incrementally add new rules to the system. This proved to be ideal since the code base migrated to the new rules library over time. The rules library resulted in code reduction, code reuse and provided for ease of maintenance.
