Architecture Principles

Structural constraints that govern the design of OmegaOS™ Kernel.

Deterministic Resolution

Identical inputs, policy version, and evidence set produce identical outcomes. No stochastic component, no weighted scoring, no contextual reinterpretation. The evaluation function is a pure mapping.

Evidence Accumulation

Evidence is submitted, timestamped, and sealed before it participates in evaluation. Evidence accumulates over the lifecycle of a decision and is never replaced or retroactively modified.

Governance Thresholds

Resolution outcomes are determined by versioned, auditable thresholds in the policy layer. No threshold change takes effect retroactively.

Human Oversight

The runtime produces structured evaluation outputs that inform human operators. INDETERMINATE results are a first-class outcome type designed to require human review.

Audit Trace Integrity

Every evaluation, evidence submission, and policy change is recorded in an append-only trace. Records cannot be updated or deleted. Revocations are new records.

No Probabilistic Inference

No probabilistic inference, statistical modeling, or machine learning in the evaluation path. Where probability measures are attached to evidence, they are treated as structured input, not decision mechanisms.

Canonical references: Product owns the three-layer architecture. Technical Artifact owns formal definitions and invariants. This page states design constraints only.
