public interface Context
The context represents the area(s) of an organization's activity where a rule applies and where the terms used to create the rule are defined and relevant. An equivalent phrase often used is business domain. Rules only make sense in a particular context and because they must be evaluated against the information in that domain or context.

For example, rules that are specifically authored and that are meaningful in an application on a Research Proposal would be most unlikely to make sense or be relevant in the context of a Student Record even if the condition could be evaluated.
