click wrap
The phrase used to describe a type of purchase or license agreement associated with tangible, shipped goods, for example boxed versions of computer software, or software which is purchased and distributed over the Internet. Like shrink wrap licensing, the click wrap purchase agreement is “bound with the product by plastic wrap (shrink wrap)” and by purchasing the product, removing the shrink wrap and opening the product, the consumer agrees acceptance of the terms and EULA. Where click wrap differs from shrink wrap licensing is on electronically distributed product. Here, a screen or Web page will launch with an “I Agree” button to check and submit before consumers can use the product.

- rule-based system
In computer science, a rule-based system is a set of “if-then” statements that uses a set of assertions, to which rules on how to act upon those assertions are created. In software development, rule-based systems can be used to create software that will provide an answer to a problem in place of a human expert. […]
- backward chaining
In artificial intelligence (AI) systems, backward chaining refers to a scenario where the AI has been provided with a specific goal and must “work backwards” to figure out how to achieve the set goal. To do this, the AI would look back through the rule-based system to find actions in the “then” rules.
- forward chaining
In artificial intelligence (AI) systems, forward chaining refers to a scenario where the AI has been provided with a specific problem must “work forwards” to figure out how to solve the set problem. To do this, the AI would look back through the rule-based system to find the “if” rules and determine which rules to […]
