The Viability Bridge

The fit

Where a coded solution meets a coded problem. The navigation word is plain; the formal term is the Viability Bridge.

Effective versus allowed

Viable is not the same as admissible

A behaviour can be viable and inadmissible, or admissible and non-viable. The bridge keeps those axes apart so fitness claims stay honest.

The two maps

Solution space × problem space

Arts occupy the Total Solution Space. Contexts occupy the Total Problem Space. The fit is the reading of one against the other — including the 24×5 viability matrix in the full model.
