Abstract It is intuitively clear that putting the cart before the horse is not the same as putting the horse before the cart. It is equally clear that a history of philosophy is different from a philosophy of history. Yet there is no logical relationship, like the AND/OR/NOT functions, which would enable manipulation of these permuted, non-commutative, relationships. In this paper we present a system for automatic handling of ordered sets, states based on these sets, and of differing points of view regarding a Universe of Discourse. We call what we are dealing with aspects and we represent them by means of a new logical function called the Overlap function.
AbstractList History of philosophy is different from a philosophy of history, yet there is no logical relationship, like the AND/OR/NOT functions, which would enable manipulation of this permuted, non-commutative, relationship. Presents a system for automatic handling of ordered sets, states based on these sets, and of differing points of view regarding a Universe of Discourse. Using aspects which are represented by means of a new logical function called the overlap function.
The problem of describing such concepts as truth, freedom, history, or geography logically or mathematically is not easily solved because no logical relationship exists, like the AND/OR/NOT functions, that would enable manipulation of permuted, non-commutative relationships. A system is proposed for automatic handling of ordered sets, states based on these sets, and differing points of view regarding a Universe of Discourse. The concept being dealt with can be termed aspects, and these are represented by means of a new logical function termed the Overlap function.
