111103 - John met with this past week Doug and tried to install BrowseUp for
111104 - consideration as a technology that can implement and demonstrate some
111105 - of Doug's ideas for OHS/DKR, particularly the Hyperscope.  This may
111106 - help attract funding for product development.

111507 - John met with Doug Engelbart this past week following the
111508 - demonstration of BrowseUp at SRI on 010122.
111513 -
111514 - John indicated that Doug feels BrowseUp should be considered to
111515 - attract funding for the OHS/DKR project by demonstrating to sponsors
111516 - that ideas on linking in the OHS Launch Plan for Hyperscope, issued on
111517 - 001025, ref SDS 28 A5U6, can be accomplished, as shown by the
111518 - demonstration of BrowseUp on 010122. ref SDS 43 0001,
111519 -
111520 -     This aligns with Eugene Kim's idea for collaboration with BrowseUp

111528 - John further indicated Doug does not support application through
111529 - Internet Explorer, IE, reported in the record on 010122. ref SDS 43
111530 - S98O  Preferred implementation is through a generic open source
111531 - capability.  This aligns with Eugene Kim's analysis on 010125.

111533 -     ..
111557 -     John tried to install BrowseUp on Doug's computer, using a
111558 -     CD supplied by Alon.  This permits testing to gain experience for
111559 -     application to support KM, requested by Alon during the meeting at
111560 -     SRI on 010122, ref SDS 43 CP7I, and recommended by Eugene Kim on
111561 -     010125. ref SDS 45 C2WL
111562 -
111563 -     Problems occurred that prevented completing installation of
111564 -     BrowseUp.  John thinks a proxy server may be needed, which was
111565 -     suggested by Jack Park on 010124. ref SDS 44 H54I  On 010125

140502 - SDS Supports Legal Practice and All Other Knowledge Work
140503 -
140504 - John indicated that his colleague discussed with John and Doug that
140505 - SDS, and possibly BrowseUp, could be used in the legal arena.  The
140506 - colleague mentioned training judges and helping juror who are stranded
140507 - due a snow storm.
140508 -
140509 - John mentioned there was discussion about using SDS for "logic."
140510 -
140511 -       [On 010211 SDS proposed with OHS, DKR, dynamic maps and dynamic
140512 -       photos, to manage (organize, tracke and audite) corporate
140513 -       facilities projects here and abroad.
140514 -
140515 -     This is an important idea.
140516 -
140517 -     SDS does not create "logic," nor does it provide rigid structure
140518 -     imposed by IBIS, which has been advocated by Eric Armstrong and
140519 -     more recently on 001130 by Jack Park. ref SDS 33 AZ7J
140520 -
140521 -     SDS supports flexible structure, so it is fast and easy to apply
140522 -     IBIS structure, or less formal methods, as needed, see explanation
140523 -     in POIMS, ref OF 2 M17I, and report by Bill DeHart on 000709.
140524 -     ref SDS 11 PQ6G This design supports Gary Johnson's report on
140525 -     001220 that rigid structure reduces productivity of knowledge
140526 -     work. ref SDS 36 RD9N
140527 -
140528 -     SDS provides a powerful form of logic by placing information into
140529 -     the context of chronology, which establishes sequence.  Since
140530 -     humans reason based on their experience, reported on 900303,
140531 -     ref SDS 1 3002, SDS provides an environment that is highly
140532 -     compatible with human reasoning and "logic." humans reason based
140533 -     on experience. see also on 900319 explaining "reasoning."
140534 -     ref SDS 2 1323
140535 -
140536 -     More recently on 000709 SDS was described as providing a natural
140537 -     organization that is more productive than conventional IT
140538 -     solutions. ref SDS 11 1029
140539 - ..
140540 - John feels his associate could help formulate a business model
140541 - for applying SDS, particularly in the legal field, noting software
140542 - applications for legal practice center on tracking billable hours.
140543 - Other software is used for taking notes and writing letters, legal
140544 - briefs.  SDS is an environment to manage all of these activities, and
140545 - includes control fields for tracking time and charges for billings and
140546 - other accounting work.

140555 - his colleague devise applications for SDS in the law.
140556 -
140557 - The law is a form of knowledge work that is aided by alphabet
140558 - technology.  Since SDS enhances alphabet technology, see POIMS,
140559 - ref OF 2 1299, it improves all facets of knowledge work, e.g.,....
