Published results
Research note, in Russian: Definition governance; independently versioned assignment streams; signed/authenticated policy publication; production host/transactional adapters and source connectors; federated scope/competence/delegation; adjudication; domain datatypes and multi-valued facts; fine-grained disclosure and retention/erasure; broad parent research holds. The published companion is a bounded original reference, not complete EM-XCT-02.
Subject boundary and candidate types
- FactAuthority
- Stewardship
- MastershipRule
Deep research questions
- Who may change a specific fact?
- How to resolve a conflict between equal sources?
- How to transfer responsibility without losing provenance?
Verifiable invariants
- The model owner is not automatically the instance owner
- A conflict is not resolved by a random import order
- A rule applies over time
End-to-end acceptance scenario
Two equal-authority sources create a contested fact and a resolution route instead of a silent overwrite.
Negative case
The last uploaded file is always considered more truthful than HRIS.
Approaches to compare
- Current Vercy protocol/MMAS/whole-object and the published WM-XCT
- W3C PROV/SKOS/SHACL/ODRL where applicable
- Practice of source connectors, versioned schemas and policy enforcement

Semantic fit requires boundary research; a published model does not by itself complete this card.
Result requirements
Every card is executed together with the full research contract: definitions, fields and cardinalities, lifecycle, sources, data mastership, rights, the five object facets, at least eight invariants, positive and negative examples, dependencies, migration and applicability limits.
