Counting machine for manufacturing and validating event-relevant identities via an ensemble network

A counting machine comprising:

• a distributed network comprising set of counters, each of which keeps a current count, said current count initialized at the value zero and incrementing whenever a signal in the form of a data record is received by the counters;
• said set of counters comprising more than one mechanical, electrical or digital counter arrayed in a distributed network with each said counter connected such that said incrementing accumulates a number of non-duplicative said data records;
• said data records selected from a group consisting of:
• an entity identification verification from a physical or digital data record containing an asserted purported identity of said entity;
• supporting information about said entity submitted to the distribution network by a network participant;
• and
• users/appliers (referred to as Members) of identity validation services who also have their own data relating to said entity's identity;
• wherein the count of the counting machines is modified as the transaction proceeds, as additional supporting data becomes available and is supplied by network participants;
• wherein the counting machine utilizes a counting methodology, said counting methodology selected from a group consisting of:
• Event Associated Record Linking Identities (EARLI), which is initiated upon receiving a request for validation of an identity, triggering processing by Members and Partners participating in an ensemble network, facilitating the control of data flow related to entity identification verification and supporting information;
• Bounded Iterative Network-Enabled Analysis and Response (BIN-NEAR), which guides the data flow controlled by EARLI until a stopping condition or completion status is indicated by a separate mechanism;
• and
• Hasse Diagram Ensemble Unified Fusion (HAD-ENUF), which determines a termination point of data processing by the counting machine, signaling a cessation of accumulation of non-duplicative data records and computing a final response or output regarding the identity verification or creation;
• wherein the totality of supporting information is continuously compared to a previous iteration and modified to incorporate changes and is a digital record consisting of sequences of counts pertaining to items related to identity verification and the network is an electronic digital network, and further comprising:
• a network participant routing sequence;
• and
• a governor provided validation of an entity's digital identity in response to the network participant routing sequence.

• whereby the first recipient can specify rules limiting distribution of the newly submitted digitally-signed data record;
• and
• whereby all rules limiting distribution are different for each member and the totality of supporting information are stored in a Managed Secure-Immutable-Nonreputable-Replicated-Verifiable and Fault-Tolerant Distributed Datastore.
