ANNOTATION:
Where are we ?

I have been working on the same problem for the past 5 years. The unification of all information concepts, at first seemed impossible. The begining was the BAM ( Business Analysis Methodology ) ie the heart breaking attempt to get business managment more suphysticated. Anyway, it developed itself after the initial formulation of the fundamental set of theories.

The Information Definitions.

The Primodial Functions.

The first deal with the information and the definition seems to takes care of the systemic and the analytic problem, (among many more). This can be viewed as the duality in physics or the descrete and non-descrete mathemetics. The initial definitions include clouse of the Plane Nature of Information Concepts, information can't be dealt with as if it was only a one dimentional property. In fact it has seven dimensions, as disclosed by the Primeodial Fuctions, which govern our perception of realities, or diviation from the elusive "Truth". There are three Primodial Functions, or more correctly Differentials, which tie together the human perceptions, value systems, and activities ( movements ) with the " outside world " which is also part of the subject.

It seems, you people run to and fro, aimlessly. Haw can you do something so inormous without any fundamentals. Furthermore, consider this. Imagine a person born to slavery. If we create an homogenious environment in which this person is tought, slavery is the only thing for him/her to experience, whip and bowl of rice, haw can this person define a concept of freedom, if they never experienced it. Now consider this, a computer scientist works hard in his field, all the FOR, WHILE loops and so on. Haw can you start to define concepts such as love, human, politics etc. Information Environment Engineering (IEE, the methodology in question) at least starts by understanding, that

(love) U (human) and (love) != (politics) : { E love & E politics }

then, love as an information concept, has its own plane of existance (can't type the proper symbols here), politics have them too, only not the same. This is just first step in finding out, political system democratic or not does not function for the human benefit ( if we CHOOSE to call love beneficial). I know this is very general, hawever if you have at least some proficiency in phylosophy, this should ruffle your feathers a little, from the information concept point of view. The reason being, the aim of our work is to successfully tie concepts together in consistent and unfoulable munner.

There is another problem, what is human. To derive solutions, don't we have to understand the nature of the problem first? ( not to mention the problem of the definition maker, and their bias in problem definition, ie slave analogy) I thought this was the aim of the Scientific Methodology, to create non bias foundations to solution derivation. You can't find solutions just by heaping up lots of information, for its own sake, if no clear goals of processes exist, then solutions are just a mutter of chance ( and not probobility).The quantities of information without clearly set value indexing, creates information pollution.

I don't wish you to percive this as a sarcasm !!! I am expressing this in a tone of a criticism, and I hope a constractive one. You, just as me, are working hard to find the same thing.

This brings me to another point here, you posses the resources, and I posses the fundamental theory to start putting this thing together, thus, I would like to obtain your written permission to replicate the material contained within. All the due credits, of course, to be maintained. If you wish to make further contact, regardless of you taking further interest in IEE, and starting to combine our efforts,

I just got my email cut at the Univ. of New England, I should have one established soon.

PS

  • I like the concise dictionary you are creating.
  • In IEE you start with a word,
  • -> the word expresses an information concept,
  • -> this has to be defined as active, passive or neutral.
  • -> Then comes the vector association,
  • -> Information FoR,
  • -> the weight and the value of the vector,
  • -> system association, or tags,
  • ->then it has to be defined by the 9 information system genotypes, from there come
  • ->the seven planes of concept existence. Finally, this leads to ->the reality assertion for this concept, and then it can be studied just haw it interacts with other concept/s / meaning/s.
