A.3.3:4.6 - Prediction use in comparison or gating

A prediction used for comparison, release, gate, assurance, or work preparation states the exact dynamics edition, predicted Coordinates, operating region, horizon, and relevant error or uncertainty. State any time step, parameter regime or source-currentness condition on which the prediction or receiving use depends. The direct consumer’s policy then states which observation, validation, sensitivity, robustness, stability, or normalization-composition conditions that use requires.

A fresh observation may replace or check the prediction when the policy calls for it. A non-expansive bound, another sensitivity bound, or commutation with a normalization step is required only when the named use relies on that property. If the required conditions are absent or fail, the prediction cannot carry that use. State a needed currentness claim through C.27.TA. Use C.27 when a separate authored temporal-claim adequacy question remains. Obtain a needed internal-constraint result through A.20; use A.21 for a gate decision or the applicable decision pattern for another decision.
