Abstract
Computer-readable storage media, computer-implemented methods, and systems are disclosed for a multi-platform calculation rule language and its environment. A calculation rule, presented in an expression language and specifying one or more functions, is received. The expression language, for a plurality of different platforms, allows each of a plurality of functions to be expressed using a common syntax. A selected platform is identified on which the calculation rule is to be executed. The calculation rule is resolved to the attributes of the data model in the selected platform to apply the calculation rule to the data model. The calculation rule is executed by performing the one or more functions specified in the calculation rule, and the results from executing the calculation rule are reported.
