MEANING is defined only by the uniqueweb of relationships tying every conceptto those connecting to it.
A CONCEPT (model-instance) appearsonly once in any semantic web, the codes locate it instantly without search
SEARCH is an artifact ofoverloaded symbol use.

is no search of any kind.

Knowledge Editors
Subject Specialists
Responsible to customer requirements, schedule, budget, development plan, product design, and project goals.
Identifies essential questions, issues, and options.Models from authoritive sources, the flow of theory, rationale, evidence, and consequent outcome.Directs source document transformations and knowledge capture.
Automates & reviews the transformation of soft sources (books, databases, reports, forms, etc.) into hard coded formats suited to integration, editing, and validation.Identifies and details any exceptions to modeling assumptions.
Enforces product design, artistic, granularity, abstraction, and best practice constraints.Directs content integration, language self- consistency, and subject specialist review.Tests accuracy, completeness, and form with automated tools.
Review and validate edited content for consistency to subject norms.Propose new topics and finer-grain distinctions to reflect user needs.Manage and report user tests.

2. Their proofs possess no intrinsic measures of: efficiency, resource requirement, or complexity costs.

1. Extremely resource aware, their many possible goals are all Intentional, Competitive, Success-oriented, and often achievable in multiple ways.
2. They reject options that do not match their situation or go against theories they trust.
Copyright Richard L. Ballard 2006Irrelevance of Logical Reasoning.dsf
3. They expect most choices are not provably right or wrong, seek to enumerate all options, and predict the consequences of each option before deciding.

In Absolute Minimum Space
Google employs 450,000 servers, deployed in 25+ world locations, processing 20 petabytes per day.
Google processes its data on a standard machine cluster node consisting two 2 GHz Intel Xeon processors with Hyper-Threading enabled, 4 GB of memory, two 160 GB IDE hard drives and a gigabit Ethernet link.
IBM mainframes build atop a myriad of database engines, sourced from a variety of DBMS vendors.
IBM mainframes focus on critical business applications such as: Human Resource Management (HR), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Accounting, Supply Chain Management etc.
Large databases support 5,000 to 20,000 tables/fields to represent 1000s of abstracted concepts
Servers are responsible for using 0.8% of world energy supply and 1.2% of US energy (2005).

Unique Mark 3 Knowledge Platform
Mark 3 is built upon absolute minimum, Shannon Limit size, andunlimited knowledge capacity. No other tool can do this.
Mark 3 is built upon a recognized theory of knowledge. It producesa complete description of all the information and theory needed.
Mark 3 supports a non-object oriented, theory-based description ofknowledge, capable of describing anything, Real or Imagined.
Mark 3 moves directly to content. It employs no indexing or search.
Mark 3 is capable of describing every relationship between theoriesand objects.
Mark 3 enables the complete development and evolution of any andall knowledge systems.
Mark 3 creates a Race to Reference Dominance, building many layersof knowledge that can grow collectively to unlimited size.

Every organization can go out today and Buy a desktop computer with the capacity To store All The World's Knowledge.
TECHNICALLY and IN PRINCIPLE:
UNFORTUNATELY:
The institutions of human civilization have yet to: Decide what "knowledge is"? Assign unique identifiers to every idea? or Conclude what makes any idea truly Meaningful?
Still, Commercally, A Great Battle Has Begun
To Create Standard Answers to All Such Questions

Ultimate InnovationsUltimate InnovationsUltimate InnovationsUltimate InnovationsThese are the inventions or discoveries that operate
at the Ultimate Natural Limits of Reality
To capture Every Form of Knowledge is not aboutdealing with infinite complexies, Nature is everywhere finite.
Successful representations of knowledge seek to findNature's Most Elegant Limit Simplicities.

A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, .....
Speak what you think now in hard words, andto-morrow speak what to-morrow thinks in hard words again,
though it contradict every thing you said to-day.
Ralph Waldo Emerson -- Self Reliance, 1841
