Pass/Fail and States #610
Comments
Thinking out loud through some scenarios. Production: I think this issue applies pretty much to "workflow" sequences of processes, where the same resource is input and output if all goes well. But am including Transportation: The beef use case fits in here. There are temperature readings taken throughout transportation in different parts of a container. All or part of a resource might be failed as unconsumable (if it is a frozen product that thaws); or might be down-graded but still tradeable (if it is a cooled product that become too warm, but within some tolerances). These are not separate quality testing processes, they are part of the transportation process, with Workflow processes: This includes taking a resource through more than one stage of development. It also includes doing an explicit quality testing (QT) process. And processes that repair or maintain a resource. In workflow processes, the resource reports the process specification of the last process it went through as the stage, to differentiate it from the same kind of resource at other stages. So you can tell if a translation was proofread, or a component was tested after production. The actions are Some observations from those scenarios:
Some tentative conclusions, for discussion, feedback welcome.

Don't know that I have anything clear for all this just yet, but the basic contention that handling state assignment with resources also means splitting them up into separate resources certainly rings true. So, as you say we need this extra bit of processing at the output of the What you're describing above also made me consider the idea of using |
Sounds good, will be interesting to see how that hangs together - I think it will. |
We have moved the ValueFlows organization from GitHub to https://lab.allmende.io/valueflows. This issue has been closed here, and all further discussion on this issue can be done at If you have not done so, you are very welcome to register at https://lab.allmende.io and join the ValueFlows organization there. |
This is related to #603 but I think involves a different decision point. That one is about how to define measurement and test events themselves; this is to reconsider how to define the implications of measurements and tests in terms of economic events and economic resources.
Noting that we currently have
pass
andfail
actions, which become the state of the resource referenced by the event. And noting that we have an active use case of a beef supply chain which includes longish transportation and various quality or validity tests, some of which go beyond pass or fail. For example, various tolerances of temperature readings may not "fail" the resource, but change the expiration date, which changes the price (and possibly the product, but that is part of this discussion, and we don't have full details on how they look at it).So some questions:
