A distributed digital rule processor to create a single system image (SSI) o n a cluster of von Neumann processors. The rule processing engine has a group of digital rule nets each having their own local bindery (500) and local controllers (200) which are interconnected by a global bindery (400). Slave translators are interfaced to the global bindery (400) to receive rule calls from the rule nets and return statuses. A compiler maps the typical source code instructions into groups of rules which are stored in the rule nets' storage area (100). The rules contain groups of input variables and output variables. The output variables of a calling rule become the input and data for the called rule. Slave application processes on the von Neumann processo rs perform slave activities for the slave translators, as the rule nets are unable to manipulate data.
