110901 - On 060516 Jack Park sent out notice of a professional event at SRI
110902 - that was held today presenting ideas on subject and topic maps.

110908 - Following the event, submitted ref DIT 1 0001 with initial comments to
110909 - Jack...
110910 -
110911 -    1.  Congratulations for a wonderful job moderating the event today.
110912 -        It was fun seeing Doug, Adam and others from the prior work.

110916 -    2.  The medical website presented by your third speaker seems very
110917 -        professional, and timely as us baby boomers begin the journey
110918 -        across the river. ref DIT 1 KJ5O

110928 -    3.  We have used a lot of online medical research sources the past
110929 -        few years. ref DIT 1 5K6J  These are very helpful for case
110930 -        management in the doctor/patient partnership, e.g., 040517.
110931 -        ref SDS 4 6M9H  More recently, on 060428 we learned more about
110932 -        PET scan test diagnostics. ref SDS 8 W25G

110936 -        Granular Addressability Supports Precision Access for KM
110937 -
110938 -    4.  In addition to asking about adding diagnosis and treatment to
110939 -        his website, I meant to ask your third speaker about adding
110940 -        granular addressability using explicit links for precision
110941 -        access. ref DIT 1 5M7L  Perhaps this was covered in the closed
110942 -        session.  Precision access adds significant value augmenting
110943 -        intelligence for research, as shown by the examples above, and
110944 -        explained in NWO. ref OF 12 PX6J  I think Doug and others use a
110945 -        purple numbering system.  If you have a chance for follow up,
110946 -        you might pass this along.
110948 -         ..
110949 -    5.  The second speaker was helpful explaining consulting work with
110950 -        the IRS.  Facilitating common vocabulary could be used by folks
110951 -        who prepare medical test reports. ref DIT 1 YN8N  Variance in
110952 -        language causes a lot of problems diagnosing and prescribing
110953 -        treatment that could be addressed with the kind of support
110954 -        presented today. (see lessons learned on 040517, ref SDS 4
110955 -        RZ5O, The same problem occurs in other settings that can be
110956 -        helped by adding an analyst role; you have proposed a glass
110957 -        bead mister or something like that.  However, it has proven
110958 -        hard for people on the job to grasp this opportunity, whereas,
110959 -        when people go to the doctor they tend to be more focused on
110960 -        accuracy.

160404 -    6.  The first speaker was excellent.  I would like to see some work
160405 -        product to better grasp the application. ref DIT 1 3Q4I  The
160406 -        woman sitting next to me seemed to say that her team working on
160407 -        a DOD logistics project did some ontology merging, so this
160408 -        might be helpful in a narrow, closed system with a well
160409 -        established structure, as occurs in inventory management and
160410 -        distribution.  One of your colleagues asked about scalability.
160411 -        Perhaps this was taken up in the closed session to address the
160412 -        challenge you presented on 000221, citing the Knowledge
160413 -        Management dilemma of overwhelming complexity presented by
160414 -        context management. ref SDS 2 L58O
160416 -  ..
160417 - Jack and SRI seem to be wrestling with the problem of complexity that
160418 - he raised on 000221. ref SDS 2 L58O  Complexity of context management
160419 - was previously reviewed with Morris Jones at Intel on 970116.
160420 - ref SDS 1 1732  More recently, on 040622 Jack discussed in a letter
160421 - applying complexity theory to make sense of organic subject structure.
160422 - ref SDS 5 FM5W  The seminar today proposed merging ontologies, which
160423 - would seem to compound a problem that has not been addressed even in a
160424 - primary stage, i.e., without merging.
160426 -  ..
160427 - The presentation in the public session this morning did not address
160428 - complexity organizing the structure of context.  The private session
160429 - in the afternoon may have develved into Jack's ideas on "sensemaking"
160430 - based on complexity theory.  The basic challenge is how to use
160431 - complementarity to make complexity an asset under the locality
160432 - principle, rather than a crushing liability that devolves organization
160433 - and dissipates effort toward entropy, reviewed on 040312. ref SDS 3
