The Jess README file describes how Rete works and how it is implemented in
Jess (it actually explains the advantage Rete has over if-then in a
loop, as well.) Jess does the same thing that CLIPS or any Rete implementation
does: it 'compiles' the left-hand-sides of the rules into a network of
tests. This compilation is don as each defrule is parsed. The
right-hand-sides of the rules run at runtime, of course.
