Glossary / Dictionary #227
Description
There seems to be a disconnect between terms used in Google/Apple SDK, TCNCoalition, PACT, etc
Is there an authoritative/common glossary all contact tracing protocols can use?
Or at least, is there a glossary used in the DP-3T protocol?
Some terms for starters:
- daily tracing key / temporary exposure key / secret key for day / key for beacon id generation
- handshake / beacon
- handshake id / ephemeral id / beacon id
- contact / exposed (matched handshake or set of handshakes matched to diagnosed person)
- meeting duration / non-exposed contact (a series of handshakes / beacons traced to one device)
- diagnosis key / broadcast keys for beacons (keys shared by diagnosed individual for handshake matching by exposed individual)
- matching criteria / contact calculation / risk factors (a set of criteria to identify a contact / exposed status: duration, number of handshakes, signal strength)
