Using Taxonomies in Automated Systems
Taxonomies should contain domain relevant knowledge to describe aristotelian classifications helping understand "things" by describing common and different properties of relevant entities. Our "world" - so as many of us like to describe it or maybe to "feel it" nowadays is accelerating, while ressources (here mainly time and brain or "braintime") seem to get narrower, and (psichical) pressure might reduce further the same braintime (*). Most of us spend a good portion their time searching for "answers", "results" using wellknown search systems like Google, Altavista, Bing... The latters donate often useful answers in change of our search profiles, which are then "given" to marketing enterprises, intellicence companies (...) and other self useful institutions which tries to sell us costumized products. Yes, in a world of increasing pressure and scarsity (as suggested by some currently created circumstances) and diminuishing timebrain, having a real oracle at our side is maybe what many of us are secretely whishing when pressing the ENTER button on some search question... (See also Google's button "I feel lucky" to underline this piece of "reality") finally delegating the success of acquiring the needed "right" piece of knowledge to some external entity (the oracle) having more braintime (...) That answer or its main components might (already) be linked in the (automated) answering system!
