B.1.6:2 - Solution — separate measurement from aggregation

Start with one direct sentence:

Dated aggregation work W_agg applied policy P to the exact C.16 resource-result epistemes for work set W_set, under declared work-part/overlap relations and accounting boundary B, and obtained aggregation result R_agg; C.2.1 episteme E_agg states that result and A.10/G.6 record its provenance.

If any referenced resource value lacks its resource Characteristic, measurement work, result episteme, Scale/Unit, uncertainty when current, or provenance, it is not repaired by adding a ledger row.

WorkResourceAggregation@Context is a descriptive account for one aggregation claim:

WorkResourceAggregation@Context:
  aggregationConcernRef
  claimScopeRef?: U.ClaimScope
  accountingBoundaryRefs
  timeWindowRefs
  aggregatedWorkOccurrenceRefs
  resourceUseRelationRefs
  workPartOrOverlapRelationRefs
  nonWorkCarrierPhaseRelationRefs?
  resourceCharacteristicRefs
  measurementWorkRefs
  measurementResultEpistemeRefs
  aggregationMethodRef
  aggregationOperationDeclarationRef?
  aggregationPolicyRef
  conversionOrNormalizationRefs?
  aggregationWorkRef
  aggregationResultRef
  aggregationResultEpistemeRef
  provenancePathRefs
  admissibleUse
  stopOrReturnCondition
  nonAdmissibleOverread?

stopOrReturnCondition states when to stop or return to another pattern. Include nonAdmissibleOverread? only when it passes F.19’s plausible-reader test. groundedNonAdmissibleOverread? is an alias for that same optional value.

Recover each of these objects and claims independently:

  • a resource Characteristic says which quantity or property is accounted for;
  • measurement work and a C.16 measurement-result episteme supply each attributed resource value, Scale, Unit, uncertainty, model, calibration, and time stance;
  • the aggregation policy declares inclusion, conversion, weighting, missing-value, partition, overlap, and deduplication rules;
  • aggregation work has its actual performer identified through A.13 and is independently admitted as dated U.Work through A.15.1; if the aggregation account must also identify the assignment under which the Work was performed, F.6 checks that relation separately; Method, actual inputs through direct relations or A.6.1 bindings, resources, and temporal extent remain separate;
  • the B.1.6 aggregation result is the typed total, vector, interval, or bounded estimate obtained under that policy and work set;
  • a distinct C.2.1 aggregation-result episteme states the result, work set, policy, boundary, time window, qualifications, and uncertainty; and
  • A.10/G.6 provenance makes the measurement sources, transformations, aggregation work, and result episteme replayable.

A ledger, dashboard, policy, profile, clause, citation, or graph edge may represent or cite this chain. None establishes work occurrence, actual participation, measurement, aggregation, or result identity by presence.

B.1.6:2.1 - Subject Pattern Map

Current claimSubject pattern
Resource Characteristic, Scale, Unit, measurement model/calibration, measurement work and resultC.16 for measurement; A.13 for each actual performer; A.15.1 for independent Work admission; F.6 when the result must also identify the assignment under which the Work was performed; and A.6.1 for actual bindings
Dated aggregation Work and actual performerA.13 identifies the actual performer, then A.15.1 independently admits the Work. Add F.6 only if the result must also identify the assignment under which the Work was performed. Method enactment and actual inputs remain separately governed, including A.6.1 bindings when used.
Work temporal part, episode, operational part, partition, overlap, retry, resumption, or later occurrenceA.15.1 and the exact Work relation pattern; use B.1.4 only to aggregate already recovered temporal relations
Proper temporal restriction of another enduring carrierthat carrier’s direct identity pattern plus A.14 PhaseOf; never a substitute for Work relations
Overlap, shared-stock, boundary, and deduplication factsC.27.TA for interval overlap; the exact stock, resource-use, boundary, or accounting relation pattern for the other fact
Aggregation policy and typed aggregation resultB.1.6
Measurement-result and aggregation-result epistemesC.2.1; A.15.PROD only when their inception through work matters
Source recovery and provenanceA.10 and G.6; E.17 for publication
