Design Space Exploration

Parametric variation + constraint satisfaction combinatorial search. Systematically explore the combinatorial design space by varying parameters under constraints to find novel viable configurations.

HARD-GATE

Cannot exit strategy until ≥80% of each budget line is consumed OR yield targets are met with justification for remaining budget.

Available Tactics

Tactic	Role
combination-mapping	Enumerate parameter dimensions and generate viable combinations
emergence-detection	Detect emergent properties in novel configurations

Available SOPs

SOP	Role
input-space-construction	Build parameter spaces for design dimensions
generic-space-extraction	Extract shared constraints across configurations
emergent-property-identification	Identify non-additive properties in novel configurations
combinatorial-synthesis	Synthesize design space exploration outputs

Execution Guidance

1. Define Parameters: Identify independent design dimensions
2. Set Constraints: Define hard constraints (must satisfy) and soft constraints (prefer)
3. Enumerate: Use combination-mapping to systematically generate configurations
4. Filter: Apply constraint satisfaction to eliminate infeasible combinations
5. Explore White Space: Focus on unexplored regions of the feasible space
6. Evaluate Emergence: Check novel configurations for emergent properties
7. Synthesize: Compile viable novel configurations into structured proposals
