The Physical Asset Execution Engine (PAEE) executes logistics workflows as a Logistics State Machine (LSM). Given the same inputs, it produces identical successor states. Determinism is a first-class property.
What PAEE does
- Applies formally defined transitions for protocol actions
- Refuses probabilistic outcomes inside the execution layer
- Stays separate from ACE recommendations
- Produces auditable progression of custody and obligation states
What PAEE does not do
PAEE does not “guess” the best traveler. Optimization belongs to ACE. Final commercial and custody effects belong to deterministic transitions participants can independently verify. J1USD movement is keyed off those transitions, not off a model score.
Implementation independence
A compliant Host portal, mobile app, or enterprise connector should agree on whether a collect event occurred. They may differ in UX. They must not differ in δ(s, e).
