Reversibility: Is the solution reversible between the agent and key stakeholders?
Harm/Beneficence: Does the solution minimize harm? Does it produce benefits that are justly dis tributed among stakeholders?
Publicity: Is this action one with which you are willing to be publicly identified? Does it identify you as a moral person? An irresponsible person? A person of integrity? An untrustworthy person?
Code: Does the solution violate any provisions of a relevant code of ethics? Can it be modified to be in accord with a code of ethics? Does it address any aspirations a code might have? (Engineers: Does this solution hold paramount the health, safety, and welfare of the public?)
Global Feasibility: Do any obstacles to implementation present themselves at this point? Are there resources, techniques, and social support for realizing the solution or will obstacles arise in one or more of these general areas? At this point, assess globally the feasibility of each solution.
The solution evaluation matrix presented just below models and summarizes the solution testing process.

Solution/ Test	Reversi- bility	Harm/ Benef-icence	Public-ity/ Values	Code	Global Feasi-bility
Descrip- tion	Is the solution reversible with stake-holders? Does it honor basic rights?	Does the solution produce the best benefit/ harm ratio? Does the solution maximize utility?	Does the solution Express and integrate key virtues?	Does the solution violate any code provi-sions?	Are there constraint or obstacles to realizing the solution?
