Documented
Purpose, measurement role and operating boundary are recorded.
DEFINEDSO-EMS MASTER R&D PROJECT
SO-EMS is organized as one modular research architecture rather than a collection of disconnected experiments.
M01 establishes the measurement foundation. Each later module can then extend measurement, logging, analysis, storage, recovery, control or system integration while remaining part of the same energy-accounting framework.
ONE MASTER SYSTEM
New modules should not create isolated datasets or incompatible measurement methods.
Each module should contribute to our ability to understand energy input, output, storage, recovery, losses and operating conditions.
MODULE STATUS
Only modules with a documented purpose and architecture should be treated as formally defined.
Purpose, measurement role and operating boundary are recorded.
DEFINEDArchitecture exists and physical implementation is being developed.
DEVELOPMENTPosition in the master architecture exists, but the detailed specification is not yet published.
PLANNEDPhysical module is being tested against defined measurement requirements.
TEST REQUIREDMODULE 01
M01 is the foundation of the entire SO-EMS architecture.
It establishes the low-voltage DC measurement bench used to record voltage, current, instantaneous power and accumulated watt-hours.
Later modules should be built on measurement principles validated here.
Open M01MODULES M02–M05
These modules remain part of the master architecture. Their detailed roles will be published individually as we restore and formalize their original definitions.
Reserved for the next defined SO-EMS measurement or energy-management subsystem.
SPECIFICATION NEXT Open M02 →Third module within the unified Sustainable Oasis Energy Management System.
SPECIFICATION NEXT Open M03 →Position reserved in the master architecture for a documented measurement or integration function.
PLANNEDPosition reserved for the fifth defined layer of the SO-EMS system.
PLANNEDMODULES M06–M10
M06 through M10 remain inside the same master R&D structure and will be documented without changing the underlying energy-accounting principles established by M01.
Reserved advanced subsystem within the unified SO-EMS research architecture.
R&DReserved for continued expansion of measurement, analysis or physical-system integration.
R&DFuture module maintained within the same standardized data and measurement architecture.
R&DFuture advanced integration layer for the SO-EMS master project.
R&DFinal module in the current ten-module SO-EMS master architecture.
R&DCOMMON ARCHITECTURE
Prefer watts and watt-hours for electrical power and energy accounting.
Measurements should retain enough time information to reconstruct the test.
Preserve whether data is manual, sensor-based, imported or calculated.
Clearly distinguish DEMO, ESTIMATED and MEASURED values.
MODULE DESIGN RULES
Define what question or system problem the module is intended to address.
Define what physical system lies inside the module's measurement boundary.
Identify energy, signals and physical conditions entering the module.
Identify the measurable physical or digital outputs.
Specify what is measured and how it will be verified.
Define what information should be logged and retained.
Define appropriate limits and failure conditions.
Define how the module's measurements or functions will be tested.
DEVELOPMENT LOGIC
SHARED DATA MODEL
Identify the module producing or receiving the data.
Connect measurements to a specific experimental run.
Preserve when the measurement was recorded.
Store the numerical or state measurement.
Preserve the physical unit with the value.
Identify whether the value came from a sensor, manual entry, import or calculation.
Retain DEMO, ESTIMATED or MEASURED classification.
SO-EMS → CONTROL ROOM
The Control Room should not need to understand every piece of experimental hardware directly.
SO-EMS can normalize verified measurements and send useful system-level data into the digital Control Room.
Enter Control RoomCurrent Control Room values may still be DEMO, ESTIMATED or manually entered. SO-EMS modules will progressively create a path toward instrumented MEASURED data.
MODULE → EXPERIMENT
SO-EMS modules should remain reusable across multiple experiments whenever possible.
MODULE VALIDATION
Test the module under simple known conditions.
Compare measurements against a suitable trusted reference.
Repeat identical tests and compare results.
Observe performance in a real operating environment.
Connect validated data to larger SO-EMS and Control Room workflows.
DEPLOYMENT PATH
Validate modules under controlled low-voltage conditions.
Energy Lab →Connect modules to practical systems and real prototype loads.
Garage Lab →Test modular deployment and repeatable system installation.
Container Workshop →Measure integrated energy flows across a larger operating site.
Complete Oasis →NEXT DEVELOPMENT STEP
Before building additional modules physically, their role should be restored and documented with the same clarity as M01.
That keeps the ten-module system coherent as it grows.
