A.3.2:4.6 - Constructor and process-theory note
In the constructor-theory and process-theory interpretation used here, both informational and physical procedures are understood through possible or impossible transformations. That motivates a broad method-description kind without making software code privileged:
- an episteme about an information-transformation method may be represented through a program, proof script, or solver model;
- an episteme about a material, energetic, organizational, or mixed-transformation method may be represented through a procedure, lab protocol, or control recipe;
- an assertion or description about dated Work may cite a method description; §4.1 gives the Work-admission and conditional assignment-attribution route;
- a mechanism may declare law-governed operation structure for transformations, but that mechanism claim is separate from the method-description claim.
This interpretation explains why FPF can treat many representation forms uniformly after the current claim and described method are recovered.
