See CONTRIBUTING.md for how to propose changes. Significant updates will be released as new versions with new DOIs.
The Cormorant Foraging Framework is the foundational taxonomy for the entire ecosystem:
Semantic Intent (Philosophy)
↓
Cormorant Foraging (3D Framework) ← This work
├─ PACE Pattern (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18049371)
├─ 6D Methodology (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18209946)
└─ HEAT Framework
└─ Extensions: DRIFT, Fetch
Once archived, this DOI will be referenced by:
- Future releases of PACE Pattern
- Future releases of 6D Methodology
- New frameworks building on the dimensional taxonomy
- Research papers and applications
The framework emerged from three production systems, each with its own documentation:
