Essences of Interaction
Information and material wealth are likewise embodied in energy and
matter as the means for their interactions. For material wealth and information, the interaction process is a determinant process for the meaning of the
material wealth and information.
Objects can be interpreted to have value and exhibit material wealth.
Material wealth carries with it information. Both energy and matter also
carry information, both as the conveyance of information that is specifically encoded within the energy or matter and as energy and matter
individually. Among the many things that information signifies, for the
purpose of deepening the appreciation for the types of mechanisms that
are operative within objects, information can be gleaned from energy,
matter, or material wealth by deriving data from the properties, traits, and
attributes of the input EMMI, from the output EMMI, and from the lost
EMMI. Due consideration must be given to provenance, congruence, and
trust (Sztompka 1999).
Property, Trait, and Attribute
Property
Mass, m, is a unique property of matter. Property is tangible and physical
(Hoppe 2004). Intellectual property is the property that can be shown to be
tangible and represented in a physical form. Verbal communications is not a
representation of intellectual property, but rather a process from which
physical property can be used to represent both the intangible knowledge
and the procedures by which that knowledge is transferred to something
tangible, such as paper or recording on media. Properties have mechanisms.
Objects can be physical or cognitive—both have mechanisms. Physical
mechanisms can be related to energy and forces (traits of matter), while intellectual mechanisms can be related to procedures (e.g., legal methods, strategies, and steps—summarized as activities). Physical objects are the physical
things we build. Intellectual objects are the processes that we use to build
physical objects. In this context, services are considered to be physical objects
with mechanisms describable as services.
Knowledge is an object. A mechanism of knowledge is the mental procedures to build cognitive frames and the enactment of procedures to carry out
placing the knowledge in tangible form. The corporeal representation(s) of
both the knowledge and the mental procedures and physical activities is
shown as the piece of paper on which the knowledge is represented.
For integration, requirements, needs, design, and architecture are all
objects of the intellectual kind—representable as knowledge (with cognitive
structures, mechanisms (procedures), and representations (or models)).
