| 6 | 17 /What is a directed graph?/ |
| 18 | |
| 19 Several systems take the form of a directed graph: | |
| 3 | 20 |
| 4 | 21 - dependencies |
| 3 | 22 - workflow |
| 23 | |
| 7 | 24 IntentMadeManifest *utilizes* directed graphs. A framework is provided |
| 25 along with instances to form a library: | |
| 4 | 26 |
| 7 | 27 - VCS: git, hg, etc. |
| 28 - decorators: actions | |
| 6 | 29 |
| 7 | 30 http://k0s.org/hg/WSGraph is built upon for interface. |

| 5 | 50 |
| 6 | 51 * hybrid: of course, since IRL |
| 52 `workflow = DAG; dependencies = DAG => ...` , | |
| 9 | 53 Since a `transition` is causal but necessarily with the `t` |
| 54 of spacetime, indeed from the above: `workflow == dependency processing`. | |
| 55 You can do some crazy things: | |
| 6 | 56 - actions: a class with method dependencies noted by decorators |
| 57 (see actions.py) | |
