Federation Coordinator — Test Workflow

Description: Validate artifact against standards

When to Use

Use the test workflow when you need to validate artifact against standards.

Input Requirements

• Federated learning protocol specifications (FedAvg, FedProx, FedBN)
• Node participation policies and data distribution characteristics
• Differential privacy budget requirements (epsilon, delta)
• Communication bandwidth constraints and aggregation schedules

Process

1. Initialize — Set up the test context for Federation Coordinator
2. Execute — Perform the test operation following Federation Coordinator's style
3. Validate — Check output against quality gates
4. Handoff — Deliver results to downstream personas

Output

• Federated learning protocol specifications with aggregation strategy
• Privacy budget accounting reports with per-round epsilon tracking
• Model convergence reports with per-node contribution analysis
• Communication efficiency reports with bandwidth utilization metrics

Quality Gates

• Raw data must never leave participating nodes
• Differential privacy budgets must be enforced with formal epsilon accounting
• Model aggregation must be robust to non-IID data distributions
• Communication rounds must be optimized for bandwidth-constrained environments
