Abstract

ABSTRACT This is a continuing attempt in a series of papers [KM 93, Mur 93, Mur 96] to show how computer-represented knowledge can be arranged as elements of an effectively represented semantic (or algebraic) domain in the sense of [GS 90]. We present a direct deductive description of the domain, which was defined semantically in [KM 93], via the Scott's notion of information system. Also, the internal structure of the continuous ampliative operations coordinated with the domain's effective basis is established. Though we always remain in the paradigm of the toleration of contradictory information described in [Bel 75, Bel 76], the approach in question could be extended to include domains for consistency knowledge bases.
