A.15:5 - Archetypal Grounding
Use this alignment whenever the live question joins a holder system, exact local system-role kind, assignment occurrence, Method, plan, capability, or performed Work. Physical engineering, knowledge work, and socio-technical work can use the same distinctions without turning A.15 into a universal process ontology.
Boundary case — possessed algorithm versus enacted Method. Robot-7 : U.System is classified under InspectorSystemRole and is the holder of InspectionAssignment-17, an occurrence of a direct maintenance-assignment species. A capability claim may say that Robot-7 can inspect turbines, and source prose may say it “possesses inspection algorithm A”. Neither claim is dated performance, and neither makes TurbineInspectionProcedure-v3 a U.MethodDescription. If InspectionWork-17 occurs, first recover Robot-7’s full A.13 core through that same obtaining assignment and let A.15.1 independently admit the Work. Then, because this alignment also expressly consumes precise assignment-bound attribution, establish F.6 through InspectionAssignment-17. The already recovered performer performed the Work under that assignment, and the Work enacted TurbineInspection@Maintenance-2026. Use A.3.2 to decide whether the procedure episteme is a MethodDescription. Robot-7 acts; the kind, assignment, capability, algorithm wording, Method, and description do not.
| Alignment position | Manufacturing | Scientific peer review |
|---|---|---|
| Exact local system-role kind | WeldingRobotSystemRole | PeerReviewerSystemRole |
| Holder system | ABB_Robot_Model_IRB_6700, designating one particular robot U.System in this hypothetical case; IRB 6700 is its model designation | Dr_Alice_Smith, modeled as an admitted U.System |
| Direct assignment species and occurrence | FactoryWeldingAssignment with the robot and WeldingRobotSystemRole; include another participant, for example a factory line or work order, only if that species predicate depends on it | JournalReviewAssignment with Alice and PeerReviewerSystemRole; a commission-sensitive appointment species also carries the exact review commission |
| Separate semantic sources when used | FactoryProductionSystemRoles-2026 and Factory-Line-B-Scheme may be used as sources for classification or interpretation claims under the applicable source and evidence relations | PhysicsPeerReviewSystemRoles-2026 and PhysicsLetters-A-Review-Scheme may be used as sources for classification or interpretation claims under the applicable source and evidence relations |
| Selected model-use structure, only when current | Cited by the receiving factory interpretation claim, never inserted as a participant of every assignment species | Cited by the receiving journal interpretation claim, never inserted as a participant of every assignment species |
U.MethodDescription episteme | Welding_Procedure_WP-28A.pdf, with WeldingMethod as exact EntityOfConcern and substantive way-of-doing claims | Peer_Review_Guidelines_v3.docx, with PeerReviewMethod as exact EntityOfConcern and substantive way-of-doing claims |
| Holder capability, when relied on | ability to execute a 3F welding seam within a declared envelope and current window | ability to evaluate a quantum-optics manuscript within a declared envelope and current window |
| Work occurrence | Weld_Job_#78345, whose temporal relation covers 15:32–15:34 UTC; separate resource-use relations connect 1.2 kWh and 5 g Argon, and enactsMethod connects WeldingMethod | Review_of_Manuscript_#PL-2025-018, whose temporal relation ends on 2025-08-15; a separate resource-use relation connects four hours of reviewer time, and enactsMethod connects PeerReviewMethod |
Key takeaway. Both cases use an admitted holder System, a local system-role kind, an assignment occurrence and its declared species, a Method, a separate MethodDescription, a capability relied on for the case, and dated Work. Their taxonomies, schemes, commissions, records, and results remain separate values and relations. This common alignment does not erase their different domain ontologies.
A.15:5.1.a - Briefing guides orientation, not execution
Source set. A release team has one deployment method description, one current work plan, one approval or decision record when required, and the evidence records and evidence relations used to decide whether the rollout may proceed. A short rollout briefing is prepared for the daily stand-up.
Briefing slice. Status briefing only: rollback procedure appears verified in the current source bundle. Execution remains tied to the deployment method, work plan, required approval or decision record, and evidence relation.
This briefing may orient the team and cue attention. If the team wants to execute from the briefing alone, use A.15.4 or the evidence, gate, decision, or assurance pattern that defines or tests the claim to recover the missing project-side kind and reference. Inside A.15, keep only the system-role kind, assignment, Method, plan, and Work-occurrence separation.
A.15:5.1.b - P2W principle-scheme publication guides planning, not occurrence
Source set. A team has a principle scheme that shows an E.18.1 P2W carry-through structure for a fabrication task: signature or principle episteme, method-family selection, selected method, U.WorkPlan, an actual Work occurrence admitted under U.Work, a separate work-result record, and result measurement.
Published slice. For this batch family, method M-2 is selected from the declared method family; prepare work plan WP-17 before any actual Work occurrence exists.
This publication may guide method inspection and work-planning preparation under A.15. A conforming use keeps selected method, U.WorkPlan, actual dated Work occurrence, separate assertion or record about it, work-result record, and result measurement distinct. If the publication is used for evidence, provenance, engineering justification, gate or constraint decision, physical medium, screen, export, OCR behavior, or publication-use, use the pattern that defines or tests that claim. If no project-side kind and reference named by value exists, create only an A.15.4 repair request, decision-request record for the next decision, prospective work-plan entry, or explicit missing-source-relation note.
A.15:5.1.c - Scenario guides method selection, not performed work
Source set. A method-selection scenario says that material X is below threshold T, resource window W is available, and the fabrication cell is under setup condition S. The scenario is admitted source material; a publication form or carrier may expose that source material for choosing between method families but does not become the selected method or plan.
Published slice. Under scenario S, method family MF-2 is admissible for planning; choose the selected method and prepare the work plan before execution.
The scenario can guide method-family selection and work-planning preparation. Once the team selects a method or prepares a plan, state that project choice or plan in a separate episteme. If an actual Work occurrence is later claimed, ground that world-side individual independently under A.15.1; a separate assertion or performed-work record may designate it but does not become the occurrence. If the scenario is used for evidence, gate, or engineering-justification reliance, first recover the project evidence relation, gate or constraint decision, or engineering-justification record named by value under A.10, A.20, A.21, or B.3; otherwise record only an A.15.4 repair request, decision-request record, prospective work-plan entry, or missing-source-relation note.
