Building BIOS Architecture

Every System05 Cartridge shall be integrated into the BIOS as a uniquely identified, replaceable, capability-bearing engineering asset.

The BIOS shall retrieve or store:

Cartridge Type and Instance identity;

Cartridge Digital Passport;

Cartridge classification;

manufacturer and version;

host-side and service-side Interfaces;

physical location;

installation orientation;

Capability Declaration;

operational requirements;

dependencies;

configuration;

firmware and software;

commissioning status;

lifecycle state;

maintenance requirements;

safety limitations.

Cartridge integration shall follow:

discovery;

authentication;

Registry comparison;

assigned-location verification;

Interface compatibility verification;

dependency validation;

capability negotiation;

commissioning;

permission assignment;

operational activation.

The BIOS shall distinguish between a Cartridge being:

physically present;

registered;

connected;

commissioned;

authorized;

operational.

Replacing a Cartridge shall trigger:

dependency analysis;

safe disconnection;

removal of the previous Instance from the active topology;

verification of the replacement;

configuration update;

recommissioning;

Digital Twin reconciliation;

lifecycle recording.

A replacement Cartridge may come from a different manufacturer if it satisfies the required Interface, capacity, Profile, certification, and lifecycle requirements.

The BIOS shall not permit a Smart or Control Cartridge to obtain broader authority than its declared and approved function.
