Abstract

→ → → CMEM Framework Collection Link Interface Freezing Sequence Table (IFST) proposes a non-teleological structural ordering of interface stabilization across systems. Rather than classifying elements by material properties or functions, IFST reinterprets “elements” as interface states, ordered by their tendency to freeze, lock in, or remain reversible under pressure. The table serves as a diagnostic abstraction for understanding irreversible lock-in, return-path collapse, and structural bifurcation across biological, cognitive, technological, and civilizational systems. IFST does not propose optimization, prediction, or design strategies. It functions strictly as an interface-level ordering and diagnostic reference, complementary to the CMEM framework.
