Behaviour Twin KIT

Applies to roles: skill provider, data provider, calculation service provider and delegator

OVERVIEW​

Data and calculation services must be bound to the knowledge graph by binding agents. To make the bindings accessible to the Knowledge Agents, they must be registered as a graph assets at the EDC connector. In addition, when providing a skill, this must be registered as a skill asset at the EDC connector. For both cases, policies and contract definitions are also needed.

GRAPH ASSETS​

GRAPH ASSET POLICY​

The graph asset policy can be used by more than one graph asset. The policy refers to a Use Case Framework Agreement. There may be more requirements for policies within a use case.
