 Here is one: KMForum-KScience@y... They don't take that up explicitly although one should pay attention to the rants on reductionism. Here is a quote from Don Mitchell: "I'm attempting to approach knowledge science by first "red-shifting" the operating system. That shift in systemic approach is first realized by conjectively shifting all data when received immediately into a convolution of the data against a sense-of-conjecture, and in so doing, literally create a scale of meaning along the one dimension of sense as a memory retrieval mechanism via ordinal position along this scale of sense. This system (I call a Matrix [a multiplex of sense lines upon a multiplicity of sensed-data-streams]) is then able to approximate a fractal-slice of semantics (immediately by design) as an instance of multidimensional sense-axes, by determinate process upon the topological surface of multi-dimensional senses built by the event of recognizing data against multiple sense scales." Tough sledding, but to understand and model how humans do it, one has to first understand that humans don't rely exclusively on logic, and probably can't without enormous discipline because the physical layer is paralogical and has to be able to dominate given survival requirements and other performance limited behaviors. A friend of mine put it this way: the reliance on emotions and feelings at the layer of cognition closest to real events saves a lot of CPU cycles. len From: Mike Champion [mailto:mc@x...] 8/20/2002 2:37:01 PM, "Bullard, Claude L (Len)" <clbullar@i...> wrote: >BTW: other lists take up the issues of shortcomings >with the use of predicate logic for knowledge representation. >I don't want to do that here.

Any pointers to such discussions would be appreciated. it seems relevant to discussions of the inter-relationships of RDF and XML.
