XM Conceptual Design

1. Conceptual design - this is where the lifetime design, high performance, low cost, modular design features are implemented.
   1. Read Refactored OSE Specifications
   2. Pursuant to OSE Specifications, calculate power requirements
   3. Define size/scale/performance of the machine
   4. Motivate your design for low cost
   5. Motivate your design for performance
   6. Motivate your design for accuracy requirements
   7. Motivate your design for ease of fabrication
   8. Define components of a technology
   9. Define relationships between components
   10. Research open source prior art available for the design
   11. Publish open source prior art available for the design
   12. Define the relevance/adaptations required for the open source prior art to fit OSE Specifications
   13. Develop the required adaptations of OS prior art and implement that in the design at hand
   14. Specify other options available for implementation
   15. Specify a specific instance suitable for prototyping
   16. Draw an editable diagram of the specific instance
   17. Populate a Task Management Platform with the above components that need to be developed
   18. Recruit developers to execute and add tasks to the basic platform.
   19. Promote active developers of the project to Project Leader Status. In conjunction with the GVCS Project Curator, this is the leading stakeholder in the project who has a direct interest in developing or using the technology; main overseer of physical project development and fabrication, and works with GVCS Project Curator on quality control for adherence to OSE Specifications
