060703 - Reviewed prospect of developing POIMS as the core capability for
060704 - knowledge management. Jack later commented favorably on POIMS in a
060705 - letter received in the early evening. Jack will discuss this thinking
060706 - with Adam Cheyer. A quick look at Jack's paper on his program "The
060707 - Scholar's Companion" (TSC), ref SDS 0 4974, shows a powerful graphical
060708 - learning environment; found possible basis to combine binary views of
060709 - knowledge (graphics and text) into a useful composite capability.

140707 - Jack noted that Eugene did a terrific job yesterday on the project
140708 - plan, and Doug was helpful in providing strong guidance for moving the
140709 - project forward.
140711 - ..
140712 - We reviewed advantages of applying a core capability to increase
140713 - prospects for developing knowledge management beyond the present focus
140714 - to develop an XML Editor for email and related efforts. Jack recalled
140715 - Eric Armstrong's concern about the need for a core KM capability in a
140716 - letter to the Colloquium on 000208. ref SDS 43 8960
140717 -

140722 - Later, on 000212 Eric cited a possible innovation that moves beyond
140723 - traditional views of knowledge as "documents." ref SDS 44 8960 So
140724 - far, however, Eric has not had enough time to think about applying
140725 - this "innovation" to create an effective "knowledge space," called out
140726 - in POIMS, ref OF 3 4662, and defined on 960620. ref SDS 16 3516
140728 - ..
140729 - Today, Jack noted that "Knowledge Space" seems like a big idea. We
140730 - discussed prospects for a breakthrough in knowledge management design,
140731 - previously shared with Doug on 000327, though at that time Doug seemed
140732 - not favorably impressed by this idea. ref SDS 66 9975
140734 - ..
140735 - Marcello Hoffman, SRI's lead authority in the field, noted yesterday
140736 - that there are no knowledge management capabilities available, and no
140737 - standards. ref SDS 69 0713 There are a lot of people spending a lot
140738 - of money trying to create something useful, but this has proven
140739 - elusive, and so provides an opportunity to make a dramatic impact and
140740 - contribution, since POIMS describes a working system implemented by
140741 - SDS with unique capabilities for generating and managing knowledge.

290407 - Jack recalled seeing SDS work product on the web during the Colloquium
290408 - discussions in January and February. Jack noted today that he has
290409 - seen a lot of linking in SDS records which grows everyday connecting
290410 - correspondence, calls, and meetings at SRI on the OHS/DKR project. He
290411 - noted that other people do not use linking like SDS does. Jack
290412 - explained that engineers on the project feel XML can support linking
290413 - for OHS/DKR software, as discussed during the meeting yesterday at SRI
290414 - on 000330. ref SDS 69 5880 He is concerned that creating links
290415 - may take too much time.
290417 - ..
290418 - Jack asked how SDS creates so many links? Jack feels connections in
290419 - SDS records to precise locations verify accuracy and provide context
290420 - that helps make sense of complex problems. He cited the record on
290421 - 000221 reviewing his letter on difficulty of subject indexing to
290422 - organize complex daily work. ref SDS 47 L58O

290437 - in the right place at the right time. ref SDS 85 EP7F
290439 - ..
290440 - [On 040622 Jack comments that SDS combines Newtonian and
290441 - Quantum mechanics of locality and complementarity to
290442 - support "sensemaking" discussed in complexity theory.
290443 - ref SDS 94 FM5W
290445 - ..
290446 - [On 080206 Morris Jones asked how so many links can be
290447 - created in email to precise locations in SDS records across
290448 - vast differences in time. ref SDS 97 A68F
290450 - ..
290451 - SDS does not use XML. This might be considered to support display on
290452 - the Internet.
290454 - ..
290455 - The first step constructing links is to find sources. This is done in
290456 - a few seconds remembering the gist of the story with the diary
290457 - directly, or the subject index, explained in POIMS. ref OF 3 KH8J
290458 - Links are created instantly by pressing Enter or double clicking a
290459 - target line in the source, and the source is closed. If the record is
290460 - needed again, people press Enter or click the new link.
290461 -
290462 - [On 020820 Murray Altheim feels that creating links in 10
290463 - seconds is beyond reach of other technology. ref SDS 88

290467 - Complementary flexible structures, explained on 890523, ref SDS 2
290468 - TP8O, enable finding details quickly when needed to connect relevant
290469 - parts of stories that make sense of complex, disparate events
290470 - separated by time and distance, explained on 890523. ref SDS 2 T14T
290471 - This takes from 10 seconds to several minutes. Granular indexing with
290472 - DNA-like hierarchial and relational structures provide command and
290473 - control of the record, also explained on 890523. ref SDS 2 A25H
290474 - Command and control of the record reduces cognitive overhead creating
290475 - connected content, and sharing with others to make complexity an asset
290476 - rather than a liability. see POIMS, ref OF 3 1113
290477 -

290483 - Knowledge Management. ref SDS 87 4S6H
290485 - ..
290486 - Jack commented that DKR capability contemplated by the project needs a
290487 - "backside." He explained that this means organizing the record with
290488 - "data structures" to facilitate storing, finding, and retrieving
290489 - information.
290491 - ..
290492 - SDS uses time and context for data structures with granularity that
290493 - makes Knowledge Management fast and easy. (see below, ref SDS 0 3905)
290494 -
290495 - [On 010425 Morris reported explanation of typical day using
290496 - SDS presents a "utopia" with everything in the right place

290500 - [On 010924 Morris notes nobody uses software like SDS to
290501 - support daily management. ref SDS 86 XT5F
290503 - ..
290504 - Jack asked about strategies for reducing the time to construct, use,
290505 - and maintain subject indexing, and for sharing the record with others?
290507 - ..
290508 - Sharing the record for collaboration and coordination of daily work is
290509 - a derivitive of Knowledge Space that takes essentially no time,
290510 - explained on 971021. ref SDS 18 X6TS
290512 - ..
290513 - There are three pieces that help make Context Management fast and
290514 - easy...
290515 -
290516 - 1. Baseline subject (knowledge) structures - epistomology,
290517 - taxonomy, etc.
290518 -
290519 - This provides some uniformity at a high level that supports
290520 - sharing, i.e., collaboration. Examples of natural, common
290521 - control criteria for primary level of multi-level subject
290522 - index are listed in the record on 960322. ref SDS 15 FG4M
290524 - ..
290525 - 2. Tools to grow subject structures and cross referencing, and
290526 - to do reports based on subject content.
290528 - ..
290529 - 3. Tools to replicate structures for alternate routing to
290530 - represent multiple views.
290532 - ..
290533 - The SDS record begins in 1988; records beginning in 1985 were lost by
290534 - computer backup problems. On 970329, the US Army Corps of Engineers
290535 - reviewed SDS used for Communication Metrics and reported this method
290536 - provides effective intelligence support. ref DRP 2 6172
290538 - ..
290539 - While we talked, Jack found the POIMS paper on the Internet,
290540 - ref OF 3 0001, and will comment. see below ref SDS 0 3905
290542 - ..
290543 - Earlier today, sent Jack a letter directing attention to his letter on
290544 - 000221 explaining the importance of ontologies, which is closely
290545 - related to subject management, ref SDS 47 8044, and asked him to call.
290547 - ..
290548 - In discussion today, explained two (2) requirements for technology to
290549 - advance from information to a culture of knowledge, as set out in
290550 - POIMS...
290551 -
290552 - 1. Subject management.............. ref OF 3 1110
290553 - 2. Chronology, also sequence....... ref OF 3 1112
290555 - ..
290556 - These factors make it practical to routinely find and connect
290557 - relationships for understanding and preserving cause and effect.
290558 - Time, context, and connections enable technology to aid "intelligence"
290559 - not as "artificial intelligence," but in a way that lifts, or
290560 - otherwise "augments" human cognitive capabilities by an order of
290561 - magnitude, see POIMS. ref OF 3 0561
290562 -
290563 - [On 000405 Jack recommended people review Welch Internet
290564 - explanation of SDS. ref SDS 72 0924
290566 - ..
290567 - [On 000504 Jack noted people are reluctant to talk about
290568 - SDS, POIMS, NWO. ref SDS 79 XD5M
290570 - ..
290571 - [On 001130 Jack submits letter describing SDS consists of
290572 - time and subjects, ref SDS 83 H17O, reflecting discussion
290573 - today, per above. ref SDS 0 TQ68
290575 - ..
290576 - We reviewed scenarios to advance these underlying technologies of
290577 - time, context, and connection in a way that can further Doug's
290578 - objective to provide open source development on the many fronts he
290579 - feels need attention for solving world problems.
290581 - ..
290582 - A predicate to making this practical is a capability that augments
290583 - basic human "intelligence." see POIMS. ref OF 3 0561 The key to
290584 - helping a lot of people, which is necessary to solve world problems,
290585 - is to provide a simple mechanism, albeit, counterintuitive, that turns
290586 - out to be very powerful, when applied regularly, like reading and
290587 - writing. see POIMS. ref OF 3 3742 On 950927 this idea was reviewed
290588 - with Intel, who was looking for ways to grow the market for PCs.
290589 - ref SDS 11 8400 On 991028 article by Peter Drucker cited need for
290590 - technology to "routinize" improvement in basic capabilities,
290591 - ref SDS 30 0785, and pointed to cognitive science as a key target of
290592 - opportunity. ref SDS 30 8925

290597 - Presentation SDS POIMS to OHS/DKR Group Meeting at SRI
290598 -
290599 - Jack feels SDS should be presented to the OHS/DKR team meeting at SRI.
290601 - ..
290602 - In a letter received later today, Jack suggests in a post script
290603 - widening the discussion to the one-list. ref DRT 1 2590
290605 - ..
290606 - Jack plans to discuss this with Adam Cheyer, and we can talk more on
290607 - this opportunity.

290620 - Letter to Jack mentions need to create an initial core group of
290621 - support 3 - 5, then open things up, if it appears there is significant
290622 - promise of progress, including an understanding on how to move forward
290623 - in a business-like manner. ref DIT 1 3108
290625 - ..
290626 - Jack likely has a good sense about who might be good candidates to
290627 - approach for considering these ideas.

630810 - process of thinking.], ref OF 3 8535 Planning is a big
630811 - artificial intelligence problem and much work has gone into
630812 - "The Scholar's Companion" code such that TSC could plan study
630813 - methods when new/interesting informational events occured. You
630814 - have brought it out as a first class citizen in the knowledge

630817 - ..
630818 - It may only be lack of time, but Jack's recognition of "planning" as
630819 - an overlooked opportunity seems conflicting with experience at large
630820 - organizations in government and industry where a lot of time is
630821 - invested on planning. What is overlooked by many is the role of
630822 - "reporting" that makes planning effective. ref OF 3 2300

630825 - Jack notes that POIMS further steers...
630826 -
630827 - ...an interesting line along the border of causal and
630828 - relational thinking. Newtonian mechanics has taught us to
630829 - think causally, and only now we are beginning to think
630830 - relationally. You appear to be plowing a path that brings the
630831 - two together. Qualitative Process Theory, the overriding
630832 - paradigm I implemented in TSC tries to do this as well. The

A10428 - We have been developing the thread woven here with a goal to make

A10430 - provides a powerful tool for learning by discovery. We believe

A10444 - Experience developing Scholar's Companion using XML for DocBook and
A10445 - other methods may provide helpful experience for advancing from
A10446 - inforamtion to a culture of knowledge, explained in POIMS.
A10448 - ..
A10449 - TSC concluding "graphically rich multiple user virtual environments
A10450 - grows knowledge," ref SDS 0 TU64, reflects mental architecture of
A10451 - intelligence. People routinely get a lot of information everyday
A10452 - through sensory perception of visual and auditory faculties. Review
A10453 - on 890523 suggests consideration of requirements for flexible
A10454 - structure illustrated by the "big picture." ref SDS 2 G14K
A10456 - ..
A10457 - Nominally pictures provide effective learning for fixed constructs,
A10458 - and even sequences of constructs that impart causation, as in a movie.
A10460 - ..
A10461 - This kind of learning, however, pales in comparison with the amount of
A10462 - inductive learning constructing implicit knowledge that occurs
A10463 - constantly from living daily life that accumulates a continuous stream
A10464 - of information which imparts impressions about cause and effect, noted
A10465 - on 890523. ref SDS 2 428F
A10467 - ..
A10468 - Most of these connections are outside the conscious span of attention.
A10469 - These impressions build knowledge, wisdom and vision when correctly
A10470 - aligned to an experiential record; but, just as often yield "common
A10471 - sense" and "false knowledge," when meaning drift occurs. (see POIMS,
A10472 - ref OF 3 8316) Knowledge from life experience, e.g., daily meetings,
A10473 - calls, email, accurate or not, overwhelms directed learning.
A10474 - Knowledge acquired through an isolated domain, for example,
A10475 - instruction at school, is ignored, or, at the very least, strongly
A10476 - competes for attention when it conflicts with the larger domain of
A10477 - life experience. Campbell reviewed on 900303 notes that humans are
A10478 - "experience" machines, and so are generally driven over time to apply
A10479 - the greater weight of experience in deciding action. ref SDS 3 3002
A10481 - ..
A10482 - POIMS suggests the ability to capture a greater share of daily
A10483 - experience, and process it with computer aided thinking, or, what
A10484 - might be called "intelligence," to add organization, analysis,
A10485 - alignment, summary and feedback (see POIMS, ref OF 3 0561) provides
A10486 - another avenue for knowledge growth that is, as yet, largely untapped,
