Abstract
This chapter describes how system supported optimization techniques can be applied to ECA rules to improve their runtime performance. In so doing, it is indicated how existing optimization techniques for passive databases can be adapted and extended for use with active rules, and in particular, how the results of rule analysis can be combined with multiple query optimization techniques to support effective optimization of rule bases.
