This policy governs the submission and sharing of work within the CL5D Hybrid Model ecosystem (e.g., Zenodo community, project discussions).

  1. Scope of Acceptable Submissions:

    • Original research, analysis, or theoretical papers applying the CL5D model to any domain (e.g., scientific discovery, complex system analysis, technology critique).

    • Formalized mathematical descriptions, agent function definitions, and code implementations related to the CL5D workflow.

    • Case studies (like the SIPPC/proKPV analysis) that deconstruct existing research through the CL5D lens.

    • Constructive critiques, extensions, or philosophical discussions related to the model's principles.

  2. Submission Requirements:

    • Clarity: Work must clearly state its objective, methodology, and how it engages with the CL5D framework.

    • Rigor: For analytical submissions, logical coherence and a clear connection to CL5D phases (AtAbExTGammaValence) are required.

    • Originality: While work can analyze existing research, the CL5D-based analysis must constitute a novel contribution.

    • Citation: All external sources, data, or referenced research must be properly cited. For the foundational SIPPC analysis, cite: DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.aea2989.

  3. Prohibited Content:

    • Work that is plagiarised, fraudulent, or intentionally misleading.

    • Content that is purely promotional, abusive, or violates ethical research standards.

    • Submissions that do not attempt to engage with the core concepts of the CL5D model.

  4. Review & Governance:

    • The project lead (Mrinmoy Chakraborty, Devise Foundation) holds final curatorial responsibility.

    • The community encourages open, peer-to-peer review and discussion grounded in the model's principles.

    • The primary goal of curation is to maintain a coherent, high-quality repository that demonstrates the explanatory and predictive power of the CL5D framework.
