Ontology has a philosophical and an epistemological dimension. The former position addresses social and cultural knowledge from the standpoint of temporality while the latter describes representation and organizational aspects of cultural and social concepts for later retrieval. The epistemological standpoint falls within the domain of information science and information systems and the philosophical position underpins our theoretical assumptions and ideas about existence. Thus ontological assumptions frame not only our understanding of reality, but also direct our epistemological approach. An epistemological standpoint is how we come to gain knowledge, hi designing systems for representing, organizing, and retrieving information it is ontology taken in its epistemological sense that reveals the first realities which deal with the fundamental categories of object, state of affairs, part, whole, etc, as well as the relations between parts and the whole and their laws of dependence Here ontology is taken to be "an explicit specification of a shared conceptualization". It is how the term is used in artificial intelligence (AI) and knowledge representation, hi computer science and information science, ontology is a formal representation of a set of concepts within a domain and the relationships between those concepts. It is used to reason about the properties of that domain, and may be used to define the domain. "Ontology is used in AI, the Semantic Web, systems engineering, software engineering, biomedical informatics, library science, enterprise bookmarking, and information architecture as a form of knowledge representation about the world or some part of it" (Wikipedia).References

A Unesco Expert Meeting on 'Time and the Sciences: Impact of Scientific Expressions of Time on Differing Cultures," London, 1976, resulted in the publication Time and the Sciences: At the Crossroads of Cultures. Ed. by Frank Greenaway and Josefma Mena Abraham*. The papers reviewed and discussed the concept and expressions of time in different domains - the physical sciences, information science humanities, architecture, arts, philosophies, religions, cultures, etc. In the present series, we shall be selectively and briefly reviewing and discussing the differences in the concept, measurement, impact and expressions of and about time in different cultures. We will also consider how knowledge organization tools accommodate these differences in the concept and expressions of Time.Keywords

Continuing on the considerations of socio-cultural aspects of the concept and expressions of time begun in the previous installment in this series, this paper briefly examines expressions of time in life course. Examples are drawn from a wide range of life activities ranging from time in proverbs, the concept of past, present and future, differences among business communities / cultures, manipulation of time in school time-tables and calendars to secure uniformity for all children but resulting in disadvantages to emigrants and marginalized communities in some countries.Keywords

The unity of concepts and terminology discernible in different art forms of Asia - music, dance, sculpture, architecture - which parallels the concept of seminal mnemonics postulated by S.R. Rangnanathan. Indian classical music and dance forms have connections / ischolar_mains in folk arts. Elements and aspects of the Indian cosmology, including expressions of Time, appears to have been absorbed into the Indonesian Balinese dances, and the architecture of Cambodia's Angkor Wat temples, as in Indian classical dances and temple architecture. Indian folk arts are briefly described. The Time- theory basis of raga classification of South Indian classical music is discussed. Indian classical dance is concerned with timing and pose; it is differentiated from Western classical dance which is more concerned with movement in space. Brief notes are given about Time in relationship to psychic abilities, the time-related styles in literature, and Time element in the classification of Classics.Keywords

This paper deals with expressions of time in information systems and information science. It is presented in two parts: Expressions of time in information science and their implications; and socio-cultural aspects of the concept of time and its implications to information studies. The first part presented in this paper deals mostly with expressions of those aspects of time not affected by cultural differences. Knowledge and its valid modes of conceptualization are briefly discussed. Introduces the concept of time and its association with information and knowledge. An information system is a time-delay mechanism. Expressions of the parameter time in studies in information science domain may be viewed from three perspectives: (1) the qualitative and quantitative expressions of time in the information science domain, based on analogies and models mainly borrowed ftx)m other disciplines; (2) time as a unifying and correlating concept among a variety of disciplines, including information science; and (3) the rapid developments in the information field, such as, information and communication technologies, and their implications and impact on, individual and group behaviour. Briefly discusses: time-binding social function of communication; role of cultural cooperation and cohesion for human "survival; information and entropy; models of knowledge diffusion - Boltzman equation; heat conduction, and other time-dependent models; Mandelbrot model; Goffman-Newill epidemic model; random Boolean network; powerlaw degree distribution; votCT model. Other topics discussed include: knowledge obsolescence over time; Zipf and Bradford distributions. Also considers sociological and behavioural aspects relating to research conmiunications; acceleration of the pace of life in knowledge society environment and its consequences. Barriers to the wider acceptance and spread of new ideas are mentioned. Some research issues are raised (The second part will be presented in another essay).Keywords
