We have presented a suite of tools on top of Protégé and Jess for
developing guideline-based CDSS. Our tools provide a visualized
environment for modeling guidelines and a translator for
converting the logic and rules of a guideline into Jess rules that
are executable in a Java-Jess environment. Once a guideline is
properly modeled in the Protégé-based development environment,
an executable CDSS in Java is automatically synthesized
from the logic and rules of the specified guideline.
