Primes

• Abstract Data Type
  • Standards practice across industries: the discipline of conformance to a specification transferred across standards bodies, carrying the same contract-versus-implementation separation. Mechanism specification into protocol design: specifying a mechanism by its function rather than its instantiation transferred into the design of decentralised protocols.

    This sourceCanonical statement of mechanism design / implementation theory: a desired social-choice goal is specified as a function (the what) and then implemented by some mechanism (the how), so the mechanism is specified by its function independent of any particular instantiating institution.
