SIE.Preface:7.1 - Source contributions behind the arrangement

The source-use account gives the qualified source cut and its dates. The shared architecture combines contributions that answer different questions; it does not treat a standard or tool family as a complete integration Method.

Terminology and registry practice, including ISO 704:2022 and ISO/IEC 11179-3:2023, makes source objects, concepts, definitions, designations, items, and versions distinguishable. SIE.2 adapts that contribution into the smallest inventory needed by the receiver. This improves on schema inspection plus informal recollection: a mapping can point to the operative definition and edition. It still cannot infer a cross-source relation from a registry entry. FPF’s source-local meaning and direct Bridge distinctions supply the separate generic questions used by SIE.2 and SIE.4.

SKOS supplies different correspondence forms; SSSOM 1.0 makes endpoints, predicates, justification, provenance, and source versions inspectable. OAEI 2025 contributes task-dependent alignment evidence. In SIE.4, SoTA-Echoing, SIE.4 uses those contributions to separate candidate generation, direct relation judgment, and a receiving-use qualification. A two-column crosswalk or score can help find a candidate, but the chosen relation, permitted loss, and counterexamples determine whether it can support this transformation. A new endpoint sense or defeating counterexample reopens that row.

ISO 8000-115:2024 contributes identifier ownership, semantics, restrictions, and resolution inputs within its declared scope. PROV-O supplies distinctions for derivation, attribution, revision, specialization, and alternate descriptions. SIE.5 and SIE.6 adapt these into two different results: an identity disposition and a source-qualified claim composition. A merged key cannot replace the first, and provenance cannot settle the second’s truth or authority. The SEMI and GS1 traceability sources in SIE.5, SoTA-Echoing make grain, issuer, and event-time failures concrete; they do not authorize a recall or establish an enterprise master identity.

R2RML and QVT 1.3 contribute bounded declarative mapping and transformation forms. The Ontop line demonstrates a virtual realization over mappings. SIE.7 and SIE.8 adapt those contributions into an independently inspectable semantic rule and a choice among whole arrangements. This costs explicit specification and comparison, but it permits an implementation to change while preserving the required behavior. Neither RDF nor MOF nor a graph store is required. Failure of a mapping premise returns to the semantic rule; an implementation discrepancy returns to its implementer.

SHACL supplies declared graph-constraint tests. DQV and the data-quality sources in SIE.10, SoTA-Echoing contribute dimensions, measurements, and process questions. SIE.10 retains their distinct evidence roles and adds the representative receiving-use replay. A passing shape can coexist with the wrong identity or a concealed stale branch. The arrangement therefore uses categorical pass, narrow, unresolved, and stop results under the contract, rather than a compensating overall score. Evidence for implementation and operation remains necessary when the conclusion relies on actual service behavior.

LOT contributes ontology requirements, development, publication, and maintenance to SIE.3. Sufficient model reuse remains a completed result. LOT4KG distinguishes ontology work from graph construction and relates changes to dependent mappings, constraints, and validation; SIE.11 uses those relationships for graph realizations. OBO Foundry principles contribute scoped module, term-stability, maintenance, and communication practices to SIE.12, with their community-specific rules qualified in the source account.

Reconsider the affected choice when a simpler qualified contribution supplies the same result, a represented use repeatedly needs a missing Method, or a source or case defeats a relied-on boundary. When the need is a reusable Method repertoire, ME.2 returns inspectable alternatives, source contributions, relations, and gaps for that comparison; the integration-specific question stays in SIE. A substantially independent practice remainder can reopen the field split described above.
