What is Planning? A Computational View

The previous posts built up conceptual foundations: conceptual spaces, state spaces, promises, grammars, statecharts, service states, and boundary objects. Now we can address the question that...

Graphs and Service Representations: What Blueprints and Journey Maps Conceal

The previous post explored state spaces geometrically - as coordinate systems with dimensions, where trajectories trace paths through abstract space. This post approaches state spaces from a...

Objects, Entities, and Things: What Services Act Upon

The previous post introduced domain engineering - the design work of constructing the representational infrastructure that computational systems presuppose - and identified it as the series' central...
