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.
