Models are important
constructs and architectures of more than one idea that directly or indirectly
influence our state of mind and our lives.
|
|
| |
Models as
architectures of concepts
|
|
| |
What differentiates a model from a
concept is that a model is the architecture, the classification system, the
language, the reasoning behind a collection of unique concepts.
|
|
| |
For example, christianity, judaism and
Islam all share the same common conceptual components as one another. However,
the way in which they are arranged (architecture) is unique between each
religious model.
|
|
| |
And another example is a school of
science such as physics or chemistry whereby many hundreds of concepts and
observations are arranged (architected) around a belief in the exclusion of the
paradox.
|

Types of models
|
|
| |
The types of concepts used within a model
architecture can be grouped by larger and larger classifications. In the
broadest sense, models can be classified as:
(1) Physical - things that exist
(2) Metaphysical - things that may exist but cannot be proven
|
|
| |
The number of
concepts in a model
|
|
| |
The number of concepts (ideas) that are
associated with a particular type of model vary greatly from physical models to
metaphysical models and from older historic models to modern models.
|
|
| |
Physical models have by far the greatest
number of concepts associated with their architecture. Physics for example has
over 10,000 concepts associated to it. In contrast, metaphysical models tend to
have far fewer core concepts associated to them, with christianity being based
on less than 300 key concepts.
|
|
| |
The UCADIAN model has over 140,000
concepts associated within it and the capacity to expand to over 1,000,000
fully integrated unique concepts.
|
|
| |
The number of
relationships within the architecture of a model
|
|
| |
A relationship is a link between one
concept and another within the architecture of a model. The simplest
relationship model is a hierarchical or tree model of simple co-dependence.
|
|
| |
This kind of one to one relationship can
be expressed as 1:1, or one to many 1:2.
|
|
| |
Most models exist as only a hierarchical
relationship architecture (1:2). The most complex relationship architectures
tend to be metaphysical models versus physical models (2:2) and (3:3). |
|
| |
The UCADIAN model exists as a deeply
relational n-dimensional model of (6:6) and above (in some cases). This is an
extremely dense inter-relationship between concepts.
