From: "Danny Ayers" <danny@panlanka.net> > Look what you've done now Seth, even TimBL's at it : > > http://www.w3.org/2001/04/roadmap/ Well, to be honest, I doubt that my efforts have even come on TimBl's radar screen. There has been a long tradition of representing knowledge with labeled directed graphs starting (perhaps) with Charles Sanders Pierce. I think John Sowa was the first to have popularized them, see [1]. But for the record my mentography was heavily influenced not by Sowa's work, but my Shank's Conceptual Dependency diagrams and was developed around 1978 when I started working on CyberMind [2]. I discovered Sowa's and Pierce's work two decades later around the time I published [3].
