Verification Runtime v5.0

Simulation Engine

The QUORUM Simulation Engine is a deterministic verification runtime. It executes the full decision lifecycle against synthetic scenarios to validate the consistency and correctness of the underlying architecture.

Engine Logic Specification

quorum-sim-engine.ts
// CORE SIMULATION RUNTIME
export class QuorumSimulationEngine {

  runScenario(scenario: SimulationScenario): SimulationContext {
    const context = this.initContext();

    /** PHASE 01: INGESTION */
    this.emit("STATE_CHANGE", "INGESTED");

    /** PHASE 02: NORMALIZATION */
    const normalized = this.normalize(scenario.input);
    context.decision_object.input = normalized;
    this.emit("NORMALIZATION", "NORMALIZED");

    /** PHASE 03: ENRICHMENT */
    const enriched = this.enrich(normalized);
    context.decision_object.behavior = enriched.features;
    this.emit("ENRICHMENT", "ENRICHED");

    /** PHASE 04: ARBITRATION */
    const arbitration = this.arbitrate(enriched.features);
    context.decision_object.arbitration = arbitration;
    this.emit("ARBITRATION", "ARBITRATED");

    /** PHASE 05: EXECUTION */
    const execution = this.execute(arbitration);
    context.decision_object.decision = execution;
    this.emit("EXECUTION", "EXECUTED");

    /** PHASE 06: AUDIT & COMMIT */
    this.audit(context.decision_object);
    this.emit("STATE_CHANGE", "COMMITTED");

    return context;
  }

  private arbitrate(features) {
    const score = features.risk_score + features.anomaly_score;
    return {
      conflict_detected: score > 0.6,
      resolved_path_id: score > 0.6 ? "ESCALATE" : "APPROVE",
      authority_chain: ["policy", "rules", "model"]
    };
  }
}

Engine Responsibilities

Deterministic Replay

The engine guarantees that identical scenario inputs always yield identical trace timelines and decision outputs, validating the deterministic nature of the platform.

Temporal Transparency

By emitting granular trace events at every state transition, the engine provides an observable "slow-motion" view of how decisions evolve over time.

Audit Reconstruction

Every simulation pass generates a full forensic state vector, allowing developers to reconstruct the entire causal chain backward from the final commitment.

Verification Principles

Simulation as Validation

The engine is not a toy; it is a structural validator. If a decision logic path fails in simulation, it is mathematically guaranteed to fail in production.

Behavioral Replay

Scenarios can be scripted to simulate complex adversarial behavior, allowing for the stress-testing of arbitration rules before institutional deployment.
