PHY.2:10 - Architectural Rationale

The operative contribution is constructing physical mechanisms that can work together. Correspondence becomes usable after there is enough source behavior to compare. Preparation, coupling and the means of producing an effect therefore belong inside construction, where they can change the selected source.

The method accommodates both a known target account and development of a target hypothesis. Their first results differ: a derived transfer can answer a target question under its physical premises; a proposed mechanism can reveal a consequence that directs inquiry. This keeps early physical imagination useful while making the strength of its result recoverable.

FPF supplies common first-model reasoning, state construction, correspondence, computation and inquiry choice. Mathematical Thinking and MMP supply the required mathematical operations and formulation methods. The physical contribution here selects interactions, their connections and their attainable behavior. A circuit or a moving-shuttle construction demonstrates that contribution.
