Weight Functions on Extensions of the Compound Manual

It has been shown ([8], [2], [1], [3], [9]) that a collection of physical operations or experiments can be represented by a nonempty set of nonempty sets satisfying certain technical conditions. Such a set is called a manual. The operations in are looked at as having no “before” and no “after”, i.e....

Description
Summary:It has been shown ([8], [2], [1], [3], [9]) that a collection of physical operations or experiments can be represented by a nonempty set of nonempty sets satisfying certain technical conditions. Such a set is called a manual. The operations in are looked at as having no “before” and no “after”, i.e., they are isolated in time. If we wish to look at connected sequences of operations—in particular, if we wish to condition by events in —we must look at the compound manual c whose elements represent compound operations built up from the operations in the base manual .
