Objects

An base for expressing knowledge is the concept of objects. Real world phenomena are often called objects , regardless whether objects exist as "things" or just as ideal concepts. In any case, objects are described by means of associated concepts.

Without objects, a TM would not exist, i.e. no objects - no TM. Practically, this means that TM is useful only, when considering objects from different perspectives. On the other hand, also human language is mainly based on objects. Considering nouns as typical references to objects, the importance of objects in human language becomes obvious.

The concept of an object includes objects of any level of detail (or complexity). Thus, also an object collection, a set of objects could be considered as object. Similar, details of an object, its properties, can be considered as objects, again.
