How to Regain Equilibrium without Losing your Balance? Scenarios for Bx Deployment (Discussion Paper)

Much of the bx literature, especially that couched in terms of consistency restoration, presupposes a workflow based on strict sequentialisation of model updates, and in some cases explicitly via a centralised broker of shared state. Put another way: the underlying mathematical semantics of bx take little account of the deployment context for such artefacts, which, from a user’s perspective, are typically concurrent and distributed. This discussion proposal invites discussion of the bx deployment context.
