Sure Matthew,

After compilation all ontologies (and other computer programs) work the same way as automatons (similar as any supercomputer is similar to the Turing machine)

All automatons are divided in four classes (similar as numbers can be natural, rational irrational, transcendental)

That why we have to find a way to "calculate" a "Class of Ontology" - roghly saying, to know if it is primitive, chaotic, interesting, or universal (this is just to give the idea for now)

I think you are right that discussing of this topic is a little bit off the main stream of the Summit, so I'm not going to continue it here.

Thanks for the understanding
Yuri

Dear Yuri,

 

I’m sorry, but although this looks very interesting in its own right, I really don’t understand how this might relate to ontologies and specifically ontology development methodology. I think you either need to explain the relationship, or if you wish to continue the discussion, move it to the ontolog forum which is not as focussed as the Ontology Summit.

 

I want to say that all texts related to texts are related to math. And I suppose that the "quality" of any text from the math point of view should bring into consideration the complexity (chaos) theory. 

 

Today  an elementary cellular automaton is well known - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_cellular_automaton

 

Some rules ("texts") can generate primitive "lines", some of them generates "chaos", some of them generates "chaotic regularity", but some rules is considered to be "universal" (the rule 110, for example)

 

My point is to see ontologies as "texts ruling texts" into the "Steven Wolfram's paradigm" and to split all ontologies for four classes as Steven Wolfram had done for the automatons

 

I am not sure how to do this and even if it's possible to do but why not to ask? :-)

 

Regards
