C.29.3:4.4 - Construct result interpretation

Identify the state or indication that the receiver can actually obtain, and explain how it yields the computational result. Give its scale, reference, timing and aggregation rule wherever those change the answer. When several observations yield an estimate, include their dependence in the sampling argument; the number of readings alone does not determine the estimate’s uncertainty.

Derive this interpretation from the executing relation. An input scale need not be the output scale. In the analog example below, each input uses one volt for ten units, while the output uses one volt for twenty units.

Check whether different possible outcomes have become indistinguishable to the readout. Counting unavailable cards can bound occupancy without determining it. A command acknowledgment can establish receipt without establishing completed motion. In each case, return the consequence the indication supports.

Use C.16 when reading the result requires a measurement model. Instrument loading, calibration, finite resolution or disturbances enter that model when they change the inference. A bound or another suitable indication can answer the question without reconstructing an inaccessible exact value.
