For instance, particle physics studies Particles, their Interactions, their Composition, etc. whereas Topology studies Topological Spaces, their Relations, their Transformations, etc. Remark. Mathematics does not study Theorems, Definitions, etc. it studies mathematical objects (Numbers, Functions, Algebraic structures, ...)

Description | --gf A subclass (or equivalent class) of dolce:information-object Information objects are social objects. They are realized by some entity. They are ordered (expressed according to) by some system for information encoding. Consequently, they are dependent from an encoding as well as from a concrete realization.They can express a description (the ontological equivalent of a meaning/conceptualization), can be about any entity, and can be interpreted by an agent.From a communication perspective, an information object can play the role of "message". From a semiotic perspective, it playes the role of "expression". --- Knowledge items are information objects that are used scientific fields to convey scientific information |
