EasyCIE(Easy Clinical Information Extractor) is a rule-based clinical information extraction tool designed for non-NLP(natural language processing) expert users. It a GUI wrapper on top of EasyCIE, an UIMA-based command line version that allows executing on servers.

1. Add Adaptable CPE descriptor runner, which allows run cpe descriptor with customized rule-based AE component with dynamically generated types, and allows update component configurations after compilation.
2. Add Adaptable AEs runner, which read AE descriptors from a directory, uses the project configuration xml to update AE configurations, dynamically generate rule-base types.
