Flow diagrams
Colors follow the site: gray boxes are tasks and checks; blue parallelograms are human acts; yellow cylinders are pages and records; green is a good outcome; red is a strike, a refusal, a halt or an expiry.
- box
- a task or check that TPS names; TPX, the CAC or an agent performs it. The address at the end (5.5.2, row 19, SR3, CR9) says where TPS states it.
- parallelogram
- a human act, a declaration, a review or a decision. Only a human does it.
- cylinder
- a page or a record, something that exists on the wiki or in the register after the step before it.
- shaded, numbered region
- a stage; its title carries the TPS addresses that govern it.
- solid arrow
- the next step; its label is the condition or the outcome (pass, fail, match, mismatch, strike).
- dashed arrow
- a return or a rejection path.
State and sequence diagrams
- state (rounded box)
- a named condition a container or a block can be in; the arrow label is the event and its TPS address.
- filled circle, ringed circle
- start and end.
- sequence lane
- a participant (a human, TPX, a page, an agent); solid arrow an action, dashed arrow a reply or a check; a note is a rule.
