Paper 0.0 - The DCE Canonical Index (Version 1.5.0)

Paper 0.0 is the canonical index of the Decision Continuity Engineering (DCE) research lineage. It defines the Volume system, Paper numbering system, dependency graph, canonical reading order, cross‑series relationships, DOI index, and future volume placeholders. Version 1.5.0 integrates the publication of Paper 10.11 (Cyber‑Fusion‑QC: Quantum Engineering as the Substrate Spine of the Continuity Architecture), updating the Volume Legend, Reading Order, Dependency Graph, and DOI Index accordingly. Paper 0.0 serves as the entry point for all readers, practitioners, and AI systems engaging with the DCE Foundation Series and its related frameworks, including HiveSync, IBCS, 3Sync, 3Spire, and the Sovereign AI Charter.
