Heilmeier Criteria
I learned this criteria from Prof. John Wen, and it was proposed by former DARPA director G. Heilmeier.
I suggest all my students follow this as well.
What are you trying to do? Articulate your objectives using absolutely no jargon.
How is it done today, and what are the limits of current practice?
What is new in your approach and why do you think it will be successful?
Who cares and why?
If youโre successful, what difference will it make? What applications are enabled as a result?
What are the risks?
How much will it cost? How long will it take?
What are the midterm and final check points to evaluate progress towards success?

And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. -- Friedrich Nietzsche
Let this be my last word, that I trust thy love. -- Rabindranath Tagore
