The Design Concept is the first step of implementing the machine Requirement into an actual design.
The distinction between Requirement and Concept may be blurred - as a Requirement may be so detailed that it specifies actual technology/design choices. In the limit of a fully-detailed Requirement - we have a concept. In the limit of a concept being filled in with technical details - we have a Technical Design.
Protocol
A concept should be in the form of a cloud, collaboratively editable document such as a google doc which allows various parts of a design to be detailed.
- To write a concept, start a google doc based on the Google Slides Template - click edit below the template to get to the viewable document, and make a copy of the document
- Include Design Rationale information for as many aspects of the design as possible. The Design Rationale should frequently refer to OSE Specifications as the basis.
- Name that document Machine_Name_Concept
- Embed in wiki, in a page named Machine_Name_Concept. If there is a naming conflict, add some more words to your title, such as Machine_Name_Version#_Concept.
