460503 - Letter to Jack asks if reference to "alphabet technology" in a paper
460504 - he submitted last month is part of study to understand SDS, which he
460505 - planned to do ealier. ref SDS 0 IK5H  Studying "alphabet technology"
460506 - was significant for talking about POIMS theory of intelligence
460507 - support, since for many years people trying to develop, and who
460508 - eventually gave up on Knowledge Management, did not talk about SDS.
460509 - ref SDS 0 WL5T  Jack responded in a letter that makes a breakthrough
460510 - for Knowledge Management by using line numbers for precision access.
460511 - ref SDS 0 RH6L  Using explicit links will further increase efficient
460512 - communication. ref SDS 0 XZ6O  Jack clarifies progress understanding
460513 - SDS remains slow because "alphabet technology" is too abstract for his
460514 - work.  The reference in the paper he submitted was mere coincidence.
460515 - ref SDS 0 TX9S  Jack cites SDS support for a "personal subject map,"
460516 - and says SDS is worthy of review. ref SDS 0 TX9X  A response to Jack
460517 - explains the "plan, perform, report" intelligence support is a main
460518 - feature of SDS. ref SDS 0 KV6O  Flexible structure and granularity are
460519 - mentioned in the follow up letter on SDS support for Knowledge
460520 - Management. ref SDS 0 KW4O, noting the scope of SDS support is listed
460521 - and explained in the record on 890523. ref SDS 0 MM3N  A case study
460522 - indicating SDS invented the "wheel" of Knowledge Mangement supports
460523 - Jack's feeling in his letter today that SDS is worthy of review.
460524 - ref SDS 0 M53N   Jack recommends people should not try to "reinvent
460525 - the wheel" of Knowledge Management. ref SDS 0 TX4W  Ideas to apply
460526 - other tools into SDS can be evaluated by demonstrating better

460910 - The letter says to Jack...
460911 -
460912 -    1.  Noticed in the paper you submitted the other day there was
460913 -        mention of alphabet technology as the engine of civilization;
460914 -        doesn't say it quite like that, but "amplifies the power of

460924 -            coincidental rather than an effort to study SDS, POIMS, and
460925 -            alphabet technology; he feels alphabet technology is too

D80407 -
D80408 -    4.  You speak to some sense of charm in the "networks using open
D80409 -        source development."  I suspect that it frequently can be a
D80410 -        mistake to think otherwise, to continually reinvent the wheel,
D80411 -        the rocking chair, and the saw horse.  Those puppies are
D80412 -        already out there in just about every implementation strategy
D80413 -        and OSS license you can imagine: why you even consider rolling
D80414 -        your own in the face of such opportunity is beyond my grasp.

D80417 - There is no evidence showing that "puppies are already out there"

D80419 - People, including the developers do not find them effective.

D80422 - Jack suspected on 011208 there are probably a lot of other Knowledge

D80424 - intelligently. ref SDS 28 RF78

D80427 - At that time, neither Jack nor anybody else had shown work product
D80428 - indicating other solutions for Knowledge Management. ref SDS 28 HH9G
D80429 - Jack talked about creating comparable technology. ref SDS 28 PC6I  On
D80430 - 040221 Jack was working on CALO at SRI to follow up efforts on OHS/DKR
D80431 - in 2000. ref SDS 33 5U6J  On 060211 Jack disclosed work on Iris that
D80432 - followed up prior efforts on Nexist. ref SDS 35 0001 and ref SDS 35

D80439 - Iverson at SRI on 000324, ref DIT 2 PQPU, explaining opportunities to
D80440 - advance Knowledge Management by not "reinventing the wheel."

D80443 -  ..
D80444 - What does the "wheel" of Knowledge Management do, further noted in
D80445 - follow up letter to Jack, ref DIT 2 326P, has been explained by Jack
D80446 - many times, per case study above. ref SDS 0 ST6J
D80448 -  ..
D80449 - The follow up letter suggests meeting so that Jack can demonstrate
D80450 - methods he proposes be added to SDS, ref DIT 2 324F, that will support
D80451 - context management as explained in POIMS. ref OF 8 1110
D80453 -  ..
D80454 - SDS seems like a seminal solution.  It does not "reinvent the wheel,"
D80455 - rather SDS has invented "wheels" that make intelligence support to
D80456 - perform Knowledge Management fast and easy for saving lives, time, and
D80457 - money, shown in the case study on 071212. ref SDS 43 IB7N

E00407 -    5.  If you take a look at the apache solr project, you'll see a
E00408 -        fully-indexed schema-based engine that serves both desktop and
E00409 -        web applications.  It strikes me that you could pretty easily
E00410 -        craft the SDS records as you presently understand them into
E00411 -        solr schema and get on with your project.
E00413 -  ..
E00414 - Follow up letter to Jack says again that tools to improve SDS can be
E00415 - demonstrated, per action item above. ref SDS 0 LL4O

E00419 - for an "engine" in his letter at SRI on 000623? ref SDS 14 2915  Jack
E00420 - proposed an "engine" again on 001025. ref SDS 19 LR6N  He discussed an
E00421 - "engine" for SDS in a letter on 001130. ref SDS 22 MN3W

E00423 -            [On 071222 Jack submitted a detailed explanation to Gary of
E00424 -            the Solr technology, that included other tools; difficult
E00425 -            to assess without work product; still need demonstration.

E00429 - On 070126 search engines have become the "holy grail" of computer

E00431 - presented on 070729 that everybody files everything miscellaneous?
E00432 - ref SDS 38 HE6N
E00434 -  ..
E00435 - Experience over many years creates caution about using a
E00436 - "fully-indexed schema-based engine" to accomplish SDS tasks,
E00437 - especially looking at work product from folks that shows no evidence
E00438 - of actual access to the record.  What you are describing may be
E00439 - useful.  Can you demonstrate these tools in operation?  How long have
E00440 - you been using it? ref DIT 2 0286

E00444 - efficient usability.
