6 bundles · 13 layers · 15 findings · 45 questions

Identity, naming and classification How an agent tells one Hitachi Blues from another, and a Hitachi Blues 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.

  1. What identifies and describes the name of a Hitachi Blues, and in what units or vocabulary? definition

  3. What may an agent decide or do once the name of a Hitachi Blues 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.

  1. What identifies and describes an identifier for a Hitachi Blues, and in what units or vocabulary? definition

Kind, parents and neighbouring kinds

The classes this thing belongs to and the ones it is next to.

  1. What identifies and describes the kind of a Hitachi Blues, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
  2. Who or what asserted this about the kind of a Hitachi Blues, by which method, and when was it true? provenance

  3. What may an agent decide or do once what distinguishes a Hitachi Blues is known, and what must it refuse? action
Form, composition and condition What a Hitachi Blues 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.

The quantities worth recording and the units they are recorded in.

  1. What identifies and describes the dimensions of a Hitachi Blues, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
  2. Who or what asserted this about the dimensions of a Hitachi Blues, by which method, and when was it true? provenance

  3. What may an agent decide or do once the condition of a Hitachi Blues is known, and what must it refuse? action
Place and movement Where a Hitachi Blues 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 Hitachi Blues is, and what that position is measured against.

  1. What identifies and describes the location of a Hitachi Blues, and in what units or vocabulary? definition

  3. What may an agent decide or do once the movement of a Hitachi Blues is known, and what must it refuse? action
State and lifecycle The states a Hitachi Blues 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.

Observations and current status

What is observed about a Hitachi Blues, how often and by whom.

Observation record

How an observation of a Hitachi Blues is recorded so that it can be superseded rather than overwritten.

  1. What identifies and describes an observation of a Hitachi Blues, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
  2. Who or what asserted this about an observation of a Hitachi Blues, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
  3. What may an agent decide or do once an observation of a Hitachi Blues is known, and what must it refuse? action
Use and operation What can be done with a Hitachi Blues and what it takes to do it.

An agent that can recognise a thing but not act on it has only half a model.

Intended use and function

What a Hitachi Blues is for, and what it is used for anyway.

  2. Who or what asserted this about handling a Hitachi Blues, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
  3. What may an agent decide or do once handling a Hitachi Blues is known, and what must it refuse? action
Provenance, evidence and time Where every claim about a Hitachi Blues 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 Hitachi Blues and how confident it is.

  1. What identifies and describes a claim about a Hitachi Blues, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
  2. Who or what asserted this about a claim about a Hitachi Blues, by which method, and when was it true? provenance

What it is Derived, awaiting review

A physical thing registered under PHY.OBJ. The registry names it; this draft has not been given a definition yet.

Why it exists Derived, awaiting review

Give an agent a durable, checkable way to recognise a Hitachi Blues, record what state it is in, and decide what may be done with it.

Distinguishing features Derived, awaiting review

  • Names folded into this entry, which a task may need to split apart again: FS Class HTR.412.
  • 1 finer distinctions are held as aliases rather than separate entries, because telling them apart needs a task that asks for it.
  • Described in 5 Wikipedia languages, which is a measure of how widely the thing is known, not of how important it is.

What robots and AI may and may not do Derived, awaiting review

May

  • observe it, measure it, record its state

Moral aspects Missing, in the backlog

Links to other meta-models Derived, awaiting review

related

  • FS Class HTR.412 - covers: Finer kinds folded into this entry because telling them apart needs a task that asks for it. Each is a model waiting to be split out when one does.

What else AI and robots need to interact with it Incomplete

Identity and identifiers required Missing, in the backlog

Not described yet. This gap is in the card backlog.

Direct properties required Derived, awaiting review

  • Made of: matter you can touch
  • Mobility varies between examples.
  • Does nothing on its own; everything it does, something else did to it.
  • These come from the domain this entry sits in rather than from the entry itself, so treat them as a first guess about the whole domain applied to one thing.

Recognition required Derived, awaiting review

  • Recognised by form and material. The registry holds no appearance data, so what a Hitachi Blues looks like has to come from research.

Capabilities and actions required Derived, awaiting review

  • observed and measured

Hazards and failure modes required Missing, in the backlog

Not described yet. This gap is in the card backlog.

Standards and interfaces required Missing, in the backlog

Not described yet. This gap is in the card backlog.

Context of use required Derived, awaiting review

  • Described in 5 Wikipedia languages, which measures how widely it is written about rather than how important or how common it is. 1 finer distinctions are held inside this entry as names rather than as separate models.

Sources Missing, in the backlog
