Continuous Integration of Data Histories into Consistent Namespaces
Mark Burgess, Andras Gerlits
We describe a policy-based approach to the scaling of shared data services, using a hierarchy of calibrated data pipelines to automate the continuous integration of data flows. Whi…
On system rollback and totalised fields
Mark Burgess, Alva Couch
In system operations it is commonly assumed that arbitrary changes to a system can be reversed or `rolled back', when errors of judgement and procedure occur. We point out that thi…
Testing the Quantitative Spacetime Hypothesis using Artificial Narrative Comprehension (I) : Bootstrapping Meaning from Episodic Narrative viewed as a Feature Landscape
Mark Burgess
The problem of extracting important and meaningful parts of a sensory data stream, without prior training, is studied for symbolic sequences, by using textual narrative as a test c…
Testing the Quantitative Spacetime Hypothesis using Artificial Narrative Comprehension (II) : Establishing the Geometry of Invariant Concepts, Themes, and Namespaces
Mark Burgess
Given a pool of observations selected from a sensor stream, input data can be robustly represented, via a multiscale process, in terms of invariant concepts, and themes. Applying t…
Information and Causality in Promise Theory
Mark Burgess
The explicit link between Promise Theory and Information Theory, while perhaps obvious, is laid out explicitly here. It's shown how causally related observations of promised behavi…
Candidate Software Process Flaws for the Boeing 737 Max MCAS Algorithm and Risks for a Proposed Upgrade
Jan A. Bergstra, Mark Burgess
By reasoning about the claims and speculations promised as part of the public discourse, we analyze the hypothesis that flaws in software engineering played a critical role in the…
