Primes¶
- Precedent (Stare Decisis)
- Platform content moderation: Past moderation decisions increasingly treated as precedent for consistency; some platforms (e.g., Meta Oversight Board) publish case decisions explicitly as guidance. Software engineering: Code-review decisions, design-doc decisions, architectural decisions accumulate as organizational precedent ("we decided in Q2 2023 not to do X for reason Y"); ADRs (Architectural Decision Records) make precedent explicit — a transfer of case-based reasoning into engineering practice consistent with the broader CBR framework Aamodt and Plaza (1994) systematize.
This sourceFoundational AI survey: systematizes case-based reasoning as retrieve-reuse-revise-retain over a corpus of prior cases, providing the technical-domain analogue of judicial precedent for engineering and decision-support systems.

Mechanisms¶
- Case-Based Reasoning System
- It is organized around the four-Re cycle — retrieve the closest prior case, reuse its solution, revise it to match the differences, and retain the finished case for next time.
This sourceDefines the case-based reasoning cycle as retrieving a similar prior case, reusing its knowledge, revising the proposed solution, and retaining the resulting experience.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 2 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
