\section{Heartbeat DoE — Implementation Summary}
\label{sec:heartbeat-doe-implementation}
\subsection{Deliverables}
The Stage~2 heartbeat DoE implementation produced four artefacts:
\begin{enumerate}
\item \textbf{Design document} — experiment design with theory, metrics
schema, and R analysis template.
\item \textbf{DoE run script}\texttt{run\_factorial\_doe\_with\_heartbeat.sh};
randomised matrix, incremental builds, per-run logging.
\item \textbf{R analysis script}\texttt{analyze\_heartbeat\_stability.R};
stability ranking, six visualisations, golden-configuration selection.
\item \textbf{Execution guide} — pre-execution checklist, step-by-step
instructions, metric interpretation, troubleshooting.
\end{enumerate}
\subsection{Heartbeat Metrics Schema}
The \texttt{DoeMetrics} struct is extended with 20 heartbeat-specific fields,
raising the per-run CSV column count from 38 to approximately 60.
Key fields:
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{llll}
\toprule
Field & Type & Purpose & Target \\
\midrule
\texttt{total\_heartbeat\_ticks} & uint64 & Ticks during run & --- \\
\texttt{tick\_interval\_mean\_ns} & double & Mean interval & $\approx 1$~ms \\
\texttt{tick\_interval\_cv} & double & Jitter (CV) & $< 0.15$ \\
\texttt{tick\_outlier\_ratio} & double & Fraction $> 3\sigma$ & $< 0.02$ \\
\texttt{load\_interval\_correlation} & double & Load--heartrate coupling & $> 0.75$ \\
\texttt{response\_latency\_ticks} & double & Latency to respond to load & $< 50$ \\
\texttt{settling\_time\_ticks} & double & Ticks to 10\% band & $< 1{,}000$ \\
\texttt{overall\_stability\_score} & double & Composite 0--100 & $> 75$ \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\end{center}
\subsection{Composite Stability Score}
The overall stability score combines three components equally:
\begin{equation}
S = \tfrac{1}{3}\bigl(S_{\text{jitter}} + S_{\text{convergence}}
+ S_{\text{coupling}}\bigr)
\end{equation}
where $S_{\text{jitter}} = 100 - \mathrm{CV} \times 100$,
$S_{\text{coupling}} = \rho_{\text{load,interval}} \times 100$, and
$S_{\text{convergence}}$ is normalised from the convergence-rate measurement.
Target: $S \geq 75$ for production use.
\subsection{Execution Flow}
\begin{enumerate}
\item The run script generates a randomised test matrix (250 runs) and
prints it for review before prompting for confirmation.
\item For each run: build the configuration (cached if unchanged), execute
StarForth with \texttt{--doe-experiment}, collect heartbeat and
performance metrics, append to CSV.
\item On completion, the R analysis script loads the CSV, computes
per-configuration stability rankings, runs pairwise $t$-tests for
significance, generates six visualisations, and prints the golden
configuration recommendation.
\end{enumerate}
\subsection{R Analysis Outputs}
\begin{lstlisting}[language=bash]
stability_rankings.csv # Per-configuration metric summary
01_stability_scores.png # Boxplot ranking
02_jitter_control.png # CV comparison
03_convergence_speed.png # Convergence-rate comparison
04_load_coupling.png # Load-response strength
05_metrics_heatmap.png # All metrics normalised
06_tradeoff_jitter_vs_convergence.png # Trade-off visualisation
\end{lstlisting}
\subsection{Golden Configuration Criteria}
The golden configuration is identified by the R analysis script as the
configuration with the highest composite stability score, subject to
$\rho_{\text{load-heartrate}} \geq 0.75$ and a significance threshold of
$p < 0.05$ on the pairwise $t$-test against the second-ranked configuration.
Once identified, the golden configuration is locked into the build system
and used as the baseline for all subsequent experiments and as the default
physics configuration for MamaForth production builds.
