Abstract
ABSTRACT Controls must be changed when information systems are modified. Audit, assurance, and quality-control (AAQC) personnel must evaluate the reliability of controls in the new system versions. Based on Bunge (1977, 1979) and Wand and Weber (1989a, 1990), we describe a model and search-space algorithm that AAQC personnel can use to determine where required control changes are likely to be located in the new system version, thereby mitigating the need for an exhaustive evaluation of all controls. To use the model and algorithm, AAQC personnel must have (1) accurate and complete requirements specifications for the old and new versions of the system, (2) a controls specification for the old version that covers all errors and irregularities that might occur, (3) evidence to conclude all controls for the old version are in place, adequate, and working, and (4) specifications for the new version expressed as a level structure of systems and subsystems.

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
