The Epsilon series is based on the work of Dr. Noonien Soong, creator of the Data, Lore and B4 androids as well as new findings following the return of the highly-modified U.S.S. Voyager. Drawing from Senior officer's logs, mission debriefings, computer core logs and the Emergency Medical Holographic runtime log as well as EMH duty-officer logs, Starfleet Engineering Corps and the Vulcan Science Academy discovered new theoretical relationships between positronic theory and Borg technology as well as restricted research on non-Federation eugenics theory and ancient Earth DNA research. The Epsilon operating system is dependent on the Soong-based architecture and can only run specified hardware, of which there are only four models, one in mothball.

The continued existence of the Epsilon program is based on a moral imperative to continually design and maintain mechanisms designed to support the Epsilon synthetic organism, often referred to as an artificial lifeform and is detectable on the current Starfleet lifeform index [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_biology][http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/abstract/1151721].  Using a modification of the Soong-based design and research in synthetic organism, the Epsilon series is a life-support solution for an assimilated Borg individual whose connection to the collective has been effectively severed. The individual's consciousness is preserved within the Zimmerman/Barclay holographic operating system, following the post-mortem procedure of the prime biological specimen.

There are four synthetic organisms, each codenamed Epsilon, housed in separate modified Soong-type cybernetic architectures (designed to support separate Epsilon organisms). Each is progressively designed, the first ("Epsilon-Alpha") was developed after approximately 17,520 hours of research projects culling data and ship schematics from the modified USS Voyager upon its return from the Delta quadrant, and its research contributions to the Borg Defense Initiative.
