Research Program in 7 LAYERS OF THINKING: Framework for Philosophy, Science & Technology: 14 (Science, Knowledge Management & Artificial Intelligence) - Softcover
Book 13 of 17: Science, Knowledge Management & Artificial Intelligence
Synopsis
From the model that lets computers understand each other — to a new architecture for knowledge itself.
For over sixty years, engineers have relied on one elegant idea to make interoperability possible: layers. The OSI reference model let machines exchange meaning by separating concerns — from physical signal to protocol to application — so a failure at one level could never silently corrupt understanding at another.
Research Program in 7 LAYERS OF THINKING asks a bold question: what if the same discipline could organize knowledge itself?
Dr. Ekkehard Finkeissen extends the OSI model beyond networking into a rigorous meta-architecture of understanding — seven functional layers running from raw measurement to normative decision:
- Event Space — where physical reality becomes measurable
- Concept & Language — where measurements acquire meaning
- Model & System — where relations become structure
- Validity — where claims earn the right to be believed
- Coordination — where disciplines and institutions interoperate
- Interpretation — where tested structures become communicable
- Application — where knowledge becomes norm, policy, or action
The result is a shared grammar for scientists, philosophers, lawyers, physicians, engineers, and standardization bodies alike — a precise way to see exactly where reasoning goes wrong: when description quietly becomes prescription, when interpretation is mistaken for measurement, when institutions "solve" epistemic problems by skipping the very steps that make solutions trustworthy.
Written as both a philosophical argument and a practical reference — complete with worked audit questions for every layer and every transition between layers — this book is the technical foundation of a broader research program (spanning medicine, law, economics, psychology, and politics) and a candidate contribution to future standardization work through bodies such as ISO and IEC.
Who this book is for:
- Philosophers and epistemologists seeking a rigorous structural account of knowledge
- Scientists and engineers who think in systems and want the same clarity applied to meaning and norms
- Standardization professionals (ISO / IEC / IEEE) looking for a meta-model bridging technical and epistemic interoperability
- Knowledge managers, policy-makers, and decision architects who need a shared language across disciplines
If the 20th century gave us the architecture to connect machines, this book proposes the architecture to connect understanding.
