I will try and explain what i am looking for. I am developing a Distributed Naming Architecture as part of my reasearch work. The Beauty of this Naming architecture is that it will be able to hold information on any kind of entity, still be able to uniquely identify it in the Global Namespace. Now the catch is that this entity need not be related to any specific domain or stream !! I am a bit abstract but i believe it should make some sense.
The implications of such a Naming structure is not difficult to understand !! Naming is the key to Discovery and Discovering is the key to Usage ... Usage is based on Trust .... its all woven toagather.
To quote from the Tarka Samgraha, that classifies categories as [1]substance, [2]quality, [3]action, [4]generality, [5]particularity, [6]inherence, and [7]negation:
[4]Classification of Genarality: Generality is of two kinds: the more comprehensive and the less comprehensive
[5]Particularities: But, particularities abiding in eternal substances are innumerable indeed.
Our ancient epistemology is partly based on `atomistic pluralism' - the core behind [4] and [5] quoted above. Have you ordered English names and words this way - more comprehensive to the less comprehensive? Please do share your work if you have ordered names or words this way.
