Sequential Processing Task

A Sequential Processing Task is a processing task that processes input elements in a fixed order (through sequential operations).

• AKA: Linear Processing.
• Context:
  • Task Input: Ordered Data, Sequential Data, Time Series Data
    • Optional Input: Processing Order, Sequence Parameters
  • Task Output: Processed Sequence, Sequential Results
  • Task Performance Measure: Processing Order Adherence, Sequential Quality Score, Processing Time
  • ...
  • It can perform Sequential Operations through ordered processors.
  • It can maintain Processing Order through sequence controllers.
  • It can track Element Position through position trackers.
  • It can ensure Order Dependency through dependency checkers.
  • It can validate Sequence Integrity through validation rules.
  • ...
  • It can range from being a Simple Sequential Task to being a Complex Sequential Task, depending on its sequence complexity.
  • It can range from being a Fixed Order Task to being an Adaptive Order Task, depending on its order flexibility.
  • It can range from being a Single Pass Processing Task to being a Multi Pass Processing Task, depending on its iteration requirement.
  • It can range from being a Forward Processing Task to being a Bidirectional Processing Task, depending on its processing direction.
  • It can range from being a Deterministic Sequential Task to being a Probabilistic Sequential Task, depending on its processing certainty.
  • ...
  • It can integrate with Order Management Systems through sequence interfaces.
  • It can support Order Optimization through sequence optimization.
  • It can implement Order Validation through sequence validation.
  • It can enable Order Recovery through sequence recovery.
  • ...
• Examples:
  • Sequential Data Analysis Tasks, such as:
    • Sequential Data Prediction Tasks, such as:
      • Time Series Forecasting Tasks for future value prediction.
      • Sequence Pattern Prediction Tasks for pattern continuation.
      • Event Sequence Prediction Tasks for event forecasting.
    • Sequential Data Classification Tasks, such as:
      • Sequence Label Assignment Tasks for sequence categorization.
      • Time Series Classification Tasks for temporal pattern recognition.
      • Event Sequence Classification Tasks for event pattern recognition.
    • Frequent Subsequence Mining Tasks, such as:
      • Pattern Discovery Tasks for sequence pattern identification.
      • Motif Finding Tasks for recurring pattern detection.
      • Association Rule Mining Tasks for sequential rule discovery.
  • Sequential Processing Operations, such as:
    • Sequential Selection Tasks, such as:
      • Ordered Element Selection Tasks for sequence filtering.
      • Priority Based Selection Tasks for ordered selection.
      • Dependency Based Selection Tasks for constrained selection.
    • Sequential Transformation Tasks, such as:
      • Order Preserving Transform Tasks for sequence modification.
      • Sequential Mapping Tasks for element transformation.
      • Sequential Aggregation Tasks for sequence summarization.
  • Sequential Control Tasks, such as:
    • Order Management Tasks, such as:
      • Processing Order Control Tasks for sequence execution.
      • Dependency Resolution Tasks for order enforcement.
      • Order Optimization Tasks for sequence efficiency.
    • Sequential Validation Tasks, such as:
      • Order Verification Tasks for sequence validation.
      • Consistency Check Tasks for order consistency.
      • Integrity Validation Tasks for sequence integrity.
  • ...
• Counter-Examples:
  • Parallel Processing Tasks, which process elements simultaneously rather than sequentially.
  • Random Access Tasks, which access elements arbitrarily rather than in order.
  • Independent Processing Tasks, which handle elements without order dependency.
  • Concurrent Processing Tasks, which execute multiple operations simultaneously.
