A computable framework for accountable data assets
Synoposis
This article prescribes an algebraic approach to manipulate data content in a unifying data abstraction framework. For non-mathematicians, this computational framework can be thought of as an highly automated and mechanized accounting system that can be extended to serve a wide range of resource authentication and authorization applications. In other words, this article will define the data capture and data verification procedure as an algebraically-formulated accounting process, so that it can leverage the mathematical rigor of reasoning about integrity of data, at the same time, provide an implementation specification to the construction of industry-strength data processing and workflow automation system.
Introduction
According to Rambaud and Pérez[1][2], an algebraically-defined accounting (data capture and verification) practice may systematically automate the decision procedures for the following activities:
- Decide how to classify the data collected and send the collected data to relevant data processing workflows.
- Whether a given data set is considered admissible or not. This is judged in terms of its data formats and legal value ranges.
- Whether a transaction process is allowable, or not. This include whether a given transaction is feasible, in relevant operational/business logics.
