http://trevoke.net/ruids/index.php?topic=3D5.0

Pretty much says it.   It takes a part in a set of like classes
(therefore the swarm).  There are multiple Types but the "standard"
type makes a few assertions, messages get attached (by the expert) and
a conclusion gets reached (5 sections / 5 DSLs)

The "big secret" to making some basic sense of the conclusions is that
each Ruid has basic "categorization" - done into the Header section of
the Ruid.

THEY are simple - so they can be authored using nothing more than a
"picklist" driven "expert session" which would be key part of a DEMO
system (and must be Web based).   And was done in WEE and tested and
so on.

The SWARM_READER is in charge of making sense of the "Image" made
after the Ruids contact "Screens".   Screens are about presenting
information (like a patient record) to the Ruid.   The Ru'id "docks"
with a "HelperClass" - the HelperClass is something also used by
Ruleby (the author is happy to report).

The "HelperClasses" is where a "Ru'id Programmer must spend his/her
effort.

=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

If you've followed along these terms are somewhat familiar.  If not
they may or may not make much sense but if I knew other terms I WOULD
USE THEM.  So I have "invented" what makes the very best sense to me -
and adopted when I get clues - for example the term "Boid" is being
carefully avoided.  The term "Swarm" fits WAY too well, I am not
giving that one up because the Ruids are executed in "Waves" -   a 2nd
wave can use the info deposited by the first Wave and so it goes.

So, Seebs, is this making some sense now, or does this seem like
something from another planet?   This medium has limited utility, this
type of thing is best done in conversation and I am sensitive to
glazed looks, and can adjust.
In this medium all I can do is blast my best effort out there and see
the postings to tell me if folks think I'm crazy or not.   If I could
not hit f5 and see 200 or so do what they do, well, I guess I'd be
wondering also.....

and that's my run at it, here
