9 bundles · 20 layers · 22 findings · 60 questions
Identity, naming and classification How an agent tells one Semax from another, and a Semax from things that resemble it.
Recognition comes before every other claim. Without stable identity nothing else in the model can be trusted to be about the same thing twice.
Names and identifiers
The names this thing goes by and the identifiers that survive translation and time.
Preferred name, aliases and local names
Which name to use, which names mean the same thing, and which merely sound similar.
- What identifies and describes the name of a Semax, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about the name of a Semax, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once the name of a Semax is known, and what must it refuse? action
Stable identifiers and external keys
Identifiers that keep pointing at this kind of thing across systems and languages.
- What identifies and describes an identifier for a Semax, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about an identifier for a Semax, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once an identifier for a Semax is known, and what must it refuse? action
Classification and granularity
Where a Semax sits among kinds, and how finely a task needs to cut it.
Kind, parents and neighbouring kinds
The classes this thing belongs to and the ones it is next to.
- What identifies and describes the kind of a Semax, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about the kind of a Semax, by which method, and when was it true? provenance

What separates a Semax from the things most often confused with it.
- What identifies and describes what distinguishes a Semax, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about what distinguishes a Semax, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once what distinguishes a Semax is known, and what must it refuse? action
Form, composition and condition What a Semax is made of, what shape and size it takes, and what state it is in.
A physical thing can be measured, and a model that cannot record its measurements cannot support any decision that depends on them.
Form and dimensions
Shape, size, mass and the ranges these take across examples.
Measurable dimensions and their units
The quantities worth recording and the units they are recorded in.
- What identifies and describes the dimensions of a Semax, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about the dimensions of a Semax, by which method, and when was it true? provenance

Materials, parts and how they are put together.
Parts and materials
What a Semax is built from and which parts are replaceable.
- What identifies and describes the composition of a Semax, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about the composition of a Semax, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once the composition of a Semax is known, and what must it refuse? action

How the condition of a Semax is judged and by whom.
- What identifies and describes the condition of a Semax, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about the condition of a Semax, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once the condition of a Semax is known, and what must it refuse? action
Place and movement Where a Semax is, how it got there and where it may go (varies).
A thing that can move needs its position recorded with a time, or every later claim about it is about a place it has left.
Location and placement
Position, containment and the reference frame the position is given in.

Where a Semax is, and what that position is measured against.
- What identifies and describes the location of a Semax, and in what units or vocabulary? definition

- Who or what asserted this about the movement of a Semax, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once the movement of a Semax is known, and what must it refuse? action
State and lifecycle The states a Semax passes through and the events that move it between them.
Most decisions about a thing depend on what state it is in now, which is a claim with a time on it, not a property.

From coming into existence to ceasing to be one of these.
Stages and transitions
The stages worth naming and what moves a Semax between them.
- What identifies and describes the lifecycle of a Semax, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about the lifecycle of a Semax, by which method, and when was it true? provenance

- Who or what asserted this about an observation of a Semax, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once an observation of a Semax is known, and what must it refuse? action
Use and operation What can be done with a Semax and what it takes to do it.
An agent that can recognise a thing but not act on it has only half a model.

- Who or what asserted this about handling a Semax, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once handling a Semax is known, and what must it refuse? action

How much of a Semax there is and how fast it goes.
- What identifies and describes the supply of a Semax, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about the supply of a Semax, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once the supply of a Semax is known, and what must it refuse? action
Composition, grade and chemical identity What Semax is made of and how pure the thing in hand is.
Grade decides what a substance may be used for, so a model that records only the name cannot support any decision about use.
Chemical identity
Formula, structure and the registry numbers that name it unambiguously.
Identity and registry numbers
What identifies this substance across suppliers and regulators.
- What formula, structure and registry identifiers name Semax unambiguously? definition
- Which related substances share a name in common use but not an identifier? boundary
Grade, purity and impurities
The specification a batch meets and what else is in it.
Specification and assay
How purity is stated and measured, and which impurities matter.
- What grades of Semax exist, how is purity assayed, and which impurities are limited? measurement
- Which use requires which grade, and what happens when a lower grade is substituted? action
Properties and behaviour How Semax behaves under conditions an agent can measure or change.
Physical constants are the part of a substance model that transfers between contexts, and each needs its unit and its conditions.
Physical constants
Values that hold for the pure substance, with their conditions.
Constants and conditions
The quantities worth recording and the state they apply in.
- What are the defining physical constants of Semax, in what units and under what conditions? measurement
- Which of these values change with grade or form rather than being fixed? boundary
Stability and reactivity
What it reacts with, degrades into, and how it is stored.
Incompatibilities and degradation
What must not meet it, and what it becomes over time.
- What is Semax incompatible with, and what does it degrade into under storage? definition
- What storage and handling does that require, and who is competent to do it? action
Hazard classification and regulation How Semax can harm, and what the law says about holding and moving it.
A substance model without its hazard class and its regulatory identity is unusable in exactly the situations that matter.
Hazard classification
Classified hazards, exposure limits and protective measures.
Classified hazards and limits
The classification, the scheme it belongs to, and the limits set.
- How is Semax classified for hazard, under which scheme, and what exposure limits apply? definition
- What protection does handling require, and what must an agent refuse to do without it? action
Regulatory identity and control
Registration, restriction and transport rules by jurisdiction.
Controls and jurisdiction
Where it is restricted and what the restriction attaches to.
- Which registrations, restrictions or transport rules cover Semax, and where? provenance
- Does the control attach to the substance, its concentration, or its intended use? boundary
Provenance, evidence and time Where every claim about a Semax came from and when it held.
A claim without a source and a time cannot be superseded, only overwritten, and an agent that overwrites loses the ability to explain itself.
Source and authority
Who said it, on what evidence, and how strongly.
Claim provenance and confidence
The authority behind each claim about a Semax and how confident it is.
- What identifies and describes a claim about a Semax, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about a claim about a Semax, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once a claim about a Semax is known, and what must it refuse? action
Time, versions and supersession
When a claim was true, when it was learnt, and what replaced it.
Validity period and supersession
How an old claim about a Semax is retired without being erased.
- What identifies and describes the validity of a claim about a Semax, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about the validity of a claim about a Semax, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once the validity of a claim about a Semax is known, and what must it refuse? action
