New AggregateFamily.TimeWeighted serving TimeAverage, TimeAverage2, Total,
Total2 and Interpolative, evaluated by the shared Sql.Common
TimeWeightedAggregator for both SQL backends (identical results by
construction). HistoryAggregateType gains TimeAverage2 + Total2 (appended);
OtOpcUaNodeManager.MapAggregate maps their NodeIds. Gateway's mapper already
refuses unknown defined members => BadAggregateNotSupported per node.
Semantics (server defaults, client AggregateConfiguration ignored):
TreatUncertainAsBad=false, PercentDataBad=PercentDataGood=100,
UseSlopedExtrapolation=false. Sloped for Double/Int64, stepped for Boolean;
a usable sample followed by a Bad one is held up to the outage (AtTime rule);
stepped Uncertain extrapolation past the last sample. TimeAverage/Total use
interpolated bounding (bridge outages); TimeAverage2/Total2 exclude Bad time.
Bounding values: latest usable + latest any before start, first any + first
usable at/after end (four TOP 1 / LIMIT 1 seeks).
CLIENT-VISIBLE: Total on SqlServer/QuestDb was SUM of samples; it is now the
time-weighted integral (TimeAverage x interval seconds), matching Gateway's
Integral. Release note in docs/Historian.md.
Trade-off (deviation from the preferred hybrid pushdown, allowed by the
design): the time-weighted family is NOT pushed down. Each read streams the
window's rows plus the four bounds (SQL Server: one five-result-set batch;
QuestDB: bounds UNION ALL + window select) into the C# evaluator. Network is
O(samples in window), memory O(buckets). Writing the per-segment
interpolation/edge splitting twice in two SQL dialects and keeping them
bit-identical was judged the bigger risk; this also makes the QuestDB
lag/lead spike moot.
Tests: 35 hand-computed TimeWeightedAggregator unit cases (each of 10
implementation mutations goes red); served-aggregate pin 13 -> 17;
conformance sparse fixture (intervals wider and narrower than sample gaps)
+ an outage straddling both window edges (each of the four SQL seeks
disabled in turn goes red); node-manager NodeId mapping test.
