The COMPEL Glossary Graph visualizes relationships between framework terminology, showing how concepts interconnect across domains, stages, and pillars. Term nodes cluster by pillar affiliation while cross-references reveal semantic dependencies — for example, how risk appetite connects to control effectiveness, model governance, and assurance requirements. This network representation helps practitioners navigate the framework vocabulary and understand that COMPEL terminology forms a coherent conceptual system rather than isolated definitions.
COMPEL Glossary / augment-assist-automate-arbitrate
Augment / assist / automate / arbitrate
Named collaboration patterns where AI respectively enhances human work (augment), supports human decisions (assist), executes bounded work under oversight (automate), or adjudicates between conflicting human inputs (arbitrate).
What this means in practice
Each pattern has distinct oversight, literacy, and governance requirements; selection is the central act of human-AI role redesign.
Synonyms
4A collaboration framework , augmentation-automation continuum
