Abstract
Abstract. Feature interaction detection methods, whether online or offline, depend on previous knowledge of conflicts between the actions executed by the features. This knowledge is usually assumed to be given in the application domain. A method is proposed for identifying potential conflicts in call control actions, based on analysis of their pre/post-conditions. First of all, pre/postconditions for call processing actions are defined. Then, conflicts among the pre/post-conditions are defined. Finally, action conflicts are identified as a result of these conflicts. These cover several possibilities where the actions could be simultaneous or sequential. A first-order logic model-checking tool is used for automated conflict detection. As a case study, the APPEL call control language is used to illustrate the approach, with the Alloy tool serving as the model checker for automated conflict detection. This case study focuses on pre/post-conditions describing call control state and media state. The results of the method are evaluated by a domain expert with pragmatic understanding of the system’s behavior. The method, although computationally expensive, is fairly general and can be used to study conflicts in other domains. Keywords: Call control, conflict detection, feature interaction, policy, APPEL, Alloy, logic model checking.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
