240503 - Morris feels that Welch records and subject index for new customers to
240504 - learn how SDS is used will do more harm than good. ref SDS 0 676F  He
240505 - says that multi-level hierarchies are useful for subject indexing to
240506 - manage complexity, ref SDS 0 FE6Q, but take time to gain exerience
240507 - learning organic structures. ref SDS 0 2I7K  Gary concurs that order
240508 - and time are critical ingredients of productivity, noting experience
240509 - makes subject indexing effective. ref SDS 0 DJ9J  Order connecting
240510 - cause and effect yields the power of knowledge to control the future
240511 - under the locality principle, but often seems hopelessly lost due to
240512 - rising entropy.  The irreversibility of time therefore requires
240513 - constant effort to manage complexity.  Subject indexing makes command
240514 - and control of the work faster and easier than using other methods.
240515 - ref SDS 0 X73H  Bill DeHart reported good results investing time to
240516 - learn the Welch subject index. ref SDS 0 7R4L  Gary has proposed a
240517 - "refactor" role following the model of library management. ref SDS 0
240518 - HA8I  Jack Park commented from long experience working with
240519 - hierarchies in topic maps, and publishing in the field. ref SDS 0 QM9I

240521 - proposed processes to strengthen hierarchial subject indexing.

240915 -
240916 -    1.  As we discussed, it is hard to find a subject 5 levels down a
240917 -        hierarchy if you don't have a lot of experience with the
240918 -        hierarchy.  People can think of things in a number of ways. (Is
240919 -        this finance, purchases, Repairs, or service?). ref DRT 1 0001
240921 -         ..
240922 -    2.  Your hierarchy represents your experience in life.  While very
240923 -        useful, it has restrictions if you were running a restaurant,
240924 -        and developing new menu items.  (I'm sure you could justify
240925 -        your current hierarchy, but would most likely find the user
240926 -        having different first level categories). ref DRT 1 AR5O

240928 -            [...see below Gary responds, and agrees with Morris'

240941 -         ..
240942 -    3.  Now, imagine a mortician using SDS to run his business.
240943 -        Limited forward linking in that business.  The Subject Index,
240944 -        and usage would be quite different. ref DRT 1 QR6K

240952 - Background study on subject indexing is listed on 000810. ref SDS 40
240953 - CD9J
240955 -  ..
240956 - Morris prepared SDS scope in his product development plan received on
240957 - 950221. ref SDS 13 0001 and included subject indexing. ref SDS 13 MT9F
240959 -  ..
240960 - Previously, on 990524 Morris was not familiar with SDS mechanics for
240961 - finding critical details.  Creating effective subject indexing seemed
240962 - beyond reach, i.e., "you never know how data will be used in the
240963 - future." ref SDS 28 BM89  Examples submitted clarified this issue.
240964 - ref SDS 28 BM6R  Earlier, on 970116 Morris asked about fractionalized
240965 - subjects, ref SDS 22 XH32, which SDS manages with flexible, granular
240966 - divisions to create and apply organic subject structures, explained on
240967 - 890523. ref SDS 1 XT6O  Benefits of organizing the work with organic
240968 - subject structures were listed on 960322. ref SDS 19 PX7F  On 010425
240969 - Morris cited self-evident benefits of SDS support for finding
240970 - everything in the right place at the right time. ref SDS 52 EP7F  On
240971 - 010924 he noted that nobody uses software like SDS for managing daily
240972 - work. ref SDS 56 XT5F
240974 -  ..
240975 - Morris is correct that experience generally improves doing work.  Help
240976 - wanted ads for janitors, farm hands, CEOs, truck drivers, scientists,
240977 - window washers all want two things: excellent communication skills and
240978 - experience.  People like to work on familiar things in familiar ways,
240979 - noted by Andy Grove in his book, "Only the Paranoid Survive," reviewed
240980 - on 980307. ref SDS 26 3740  Experience makes work familiar under the
240981 - rule...

240984 -                        Been there and done that!
240986 -  ..
240987 - Experience relies on momentary memory of cause and effect that avoids
240988 - cognitive overhead investing time for thinking and study to acquire
240989 - understanding.  People who have already "been there and done that" are
240990 - confident taking action will yield predictable results.  Diligence
240991 - takes time to think, to study, to learn from gaining experience that
240992 - gets things done faster, better, cheaper, as set out in NWO.
240993 - ref OF 15 YH4L  Cognitive overhead investing time for learning to save
240994 - time and money creates enormous frustration, ref OF 15 LH6K, compared
240995 - to simply reacting on sensory perception from situational awareness,
240996 - as explained in NWO. ref OF 14 08XX
240998 -  ..
240999 - Deep levels of granular divisions in organic structures for a subject
241000 - index improve effectiveness, noted by Morris this morning, ref SDS 0
241001 - UT8H, but, necessarily take time to gain experience, illustrated by
241002 - Bill DeHart's explanation of learning to use the Welch subject index,
241003 - reported 970220. ref SDS 23 8448  After becoming familiar with the
241004 - hierarchy, Bill reported in a conference call on 000709 that SDS was
241005 - more effective than traditional methods for organizing the record to
241006 - manage daily work. ref SDS 38 0784  Motivation to study SDS was aided
241007 - by Bill's background as a project management professional at PG&E.  He
241008 - had worked closely with SDS for several years.  A meeting he attended
241009 - on 940901 showed a high level of customer satisfaction with his work
241010 - on a complex project supported by SDS. ref SDS 9 4920  Bill's boss
241011 - reported on 941130 that PG&E department managers and engineers
241012 - commended work supported by SDS. ref SDS 10 0003   Another meeting on
241013 - 941208 confirmed customer satisfaction had increased. ref SDS 11 8841
241014 - So, while learning is always a little frustrating, experiences
241015 - improving work builds confidence that investing time for cognitive
241016 - overhead to study and acquire experience navigating the subject index
241017 - is a worthwhile investment for saving time and money.  Without
241018 - confidence in benefits, investing time studying the subject index can
241019 - seem like unnecessary overkill.
241021 -  ..
241022 - Inexperience navigating complexity makes organization seem hopeless,
241023 - causing anger and frustration, noted later today by Gary, ref SDS 0
241024 - JV6Y, like trying to find a document on the computer, reported on
241025 - 960406, ref SDS 20 0218, a book in the library, or pressing buttons
241026 - for "Skill Based Routing" on the telephone.
241028 -  ..
241029 - Sharing models for complex hierarchies arise from hiring experienced
241030 - people to help people less experienced solve problems finding things,
241031 - which Morris presents today. ref SDS 0 2I7K
241033 -  ..
241034 - Secretaries help people find documents because they have experience
241035 - filing papers in hierarchies of folders, drawers, and cabinets, e.g.,
241036 - on 960406, ref SDS 20 V85I, and more recently on 031211. ref SDS 68

241043 - thousands products.

BK0513 -        structure below commonly accepted primary levels quickly
BK0514 -        becomes problematic figuring out structure for data and

BK0569 -  ..
BK0570 - Context and meaning at the paragraph level is tracked for command and
BK0571 - control of the work to accomplish objectives, requirements, and
BK0572 - commitments on time and within budget.  Since USAFIT reported in a
BK0573 - study that management degrades to entropy, it should not be suprising
BK0574 - that command and control of complexity is hard work, like the little

BK0615 - worried about how to be proactive solving small problems before they
BK0616 - grow into calamity. ref SDS 5 0674
BK0618 -  ..
BK0619 - Manual mult-level filing systems have been effective for records
BK0620 - management, illustrated by the rise of civilization the past 2,000
BK0621 - years.  There is a role for using computers to apply keywords, and
BK0622 - ontologies storing and retrieving the record of daily work.  There is
BK0623 - also a need for a "Controller," Chief Operations Officer (COO), or
BK0624 - Information Officer (CIO), reviewed on 990625, ref SDS 29 8183, to
BK0625 - establish filing accounts with descriptions and rules for retiring
BK0626 - records to permenant storage, and ultimate destruction, illustrated by
BK0627 - review on 960322, ref SDS 19 6544, including the MIT records
BK0628 - management system. ref SDS 19 RT6J
BK0630 -  ..
BK0631 - Typically documents get stored in buildings, on floors, in rooms, in
BK0632 - filing cabinets, file drawers, and file folders.   All of this organic
BK0633 - structure represents in some cases different levels of structure in
BK0634 - the classification of documents.  Content is therefore assessed only
BK0635 - at the document level.  In the case of SDS, content is classified and
BK0636 - managed at the paragraph, and in some cases at the sentence level, as
BK0637 - implied by the question presented here. ref SDS 0 FE4Q
BK0639 -  ..
BK0640 - Often filing documents has nothing to do with content, and reflects
BK0641 - solely physical location.  So, for example, someone might have a
BK0642 - letter in their filing cabinet on a taking a vacation, and this will
BK0643 - be included in the archives for building an airplane, if that is the
BK0644 - work of the organization where the person works.
BK0646 -  ..
BK0647 - Thus, the subject of the paragraph above, ref SDS 0 FE4Q, might start
BK0648 - with...
BK0649 -
BK0650 -        What's the subject for paragraph

BW0427 -    8.  My sense is that giving people the SDS program with SI support

BW0438 -        Control Fields and record segments. ref DIT 1 UI6J  These
BW0439 -        elements seem like unnecessary overkill without a Subject Index
BW0440 -        and SDS records to experience program functionality.
BW0442 -         ..
BW0443 -   10.  Additionally, navigating an established subject index
BW0444 -        demonstrates the meaning of "organic structure," and allows
BW0445 -        people to discover the ease and speed required for command and
BW0446 -        control of complexity with multiple views of context.  Such

BW0451 -         ..
BW0452 -   11.  I agree that new users will barely grasp more than 2 or three
BW0453 -        levels down.  My stuff has many more than 10 levels in some

DD0513 -
DD0514 -    1.  I've been playing around in this field for a few years now;
DD0515 -        clearly nowhere near the level of expertise and experience that
DD0516 -        Rod has.  But, one of the things that topic/subject mapping has
DD0517 -        taught me, and continues to teach is that hierarchies don't
DD0518 -        always offer the structure necessary to model a complex
DD0519 -        universe of discourse.
DD0521 -  ..
DD0522 - Jack cited SDS in a letter on 040622 for managing complexity through
DD0523 - self-conversation ref SDS 73 P15J, which is another way of presenting
DD0524 - "thinking" and "analysis" explained in POIMS as "reporting,"
DD0525 - ref OF 5 2300; he further described this as a process of
DD0526 - "sensemaking." ref SDS 73 5E5M
