C.17:5.2 - Optional applied characteristics

The following are executable local examples, not required universal templates. Use one only when the receiving question needs it and identify its bearer, rule, Scale, and evidence.

  • ReframeDelta. The bearer is an ordered pair of problem-frame epistemes. One local rule compares the earlier and later frame on an ordinal Scale such as None | Local | BoundaryShift | Systemic; a boundary or scope diff and a changed causal map support the reading. The frame change does not by itself prove improvement, so state Use-Value separately.
  • Compositionality. The bearer is the design or episteme being assessed. One local rule requires reuse of at least a declared number of components and evidence of at least one new relation among them; it may return a boolean plus a separately defined structure reading. Cite the component graph and component provenance.
  • Transferability. The bearer is the design, result, or episteme whose use is tested in one named receiving setting. One local ordinal Scale is not supported | supported with stated loss | supported for the stated use. Cite receiving-use pilot evidence and the preserved and lost meaning; use an F.9 Bridge only when a relation between different reference-scheme senses actually obtains.
  • DiversityOfSearch. The bearer is a finite set of dated Work attempts. Count distinct approach classes under a declared local typology, optionally as a rate over a stated time window, and cite the tagged Work and typology. Cosmetic variants do not create new classes.
  • Time-to-First-Viable. The bearer is one Work episode. Measure elapsed time from a declared start to the first dated result that passes the stated viability criterion; cite the timestamps and passing evidence. If no result passed, report not yet obtained or a right-censored duration rather than the time to the first runnable output.
  • Risk-BudgetedExperimentation. Compare the applicable WorkPlan with the resulting dated Work set. One local rule reports planned exploratory resource use divided by the allowed risk budget and the realized ratio separately, with any overrun visible. Cite the WorkPlan, actual Work, and resource evidence; the reading does not grant the budget or authorize the Work.

These examples do not create another universal characteristic family. Readings about actual attempts, elapsed time, or realized experimentation depend on dated Work; planned experimentation depends on a WorkPlan.
