P00Foundations of Meaning and Knowledge Management
The paper proposes an operational research programme for managing transitions between a source, a representation of its content, a bounded context and the result of applying it.

P01Semantic Objects, Sources and Verifiable Extraction
The paper proposes a profile of the semantic object (`MeaningObject`) and a protocol for verifiable extraction.

P02Context, Depth and Conditions of Applicability
The paper proposes a model in which extracted content, the conditions for understanding it and the conditions of a new application are addressed separately.
Read the entry pageP03Transformations, Composition and Bounded Transfer
Reusing knowledge requires transformations: normalisation, reduction, joining sources, inference, parametrisation and transfer to a new situation.
Read the entry pageP04Query, Retrieval and Verifiable Coverage
The paper proposes a profile for moving from a human or agent query to a bounded answer set with checkable grounds.
Read the entry pageP05Context Composition under a Limited Budget
The paper studies how to compose a context from a fixed set of candidates under limited resources.
Read the entry pageP06Dialogue, Learning and Alignment of Understanding
The paper offers a specification and a limited transition profile over structured dialogue events.
Read the entry pageP07Reasoning, Justification and Revision of Conclusions
The paper concerns revising a stored conclusion when one of its premises changes.
Read the entry pageP08Documents, Representations and Long-Term Memory
The paper treats a document as a defined representation of knowledge for a purpose, audience and genre, and asks what editing and memory must preserve: conditions of applicability, dependent paragraphs, source locators and current permission to use.

The paper proposes a general Knowledge Contract (KC) v3 interface linking addressable content to purpose, conditions, grounds, dependencies and rules of use.
Read the entry pageP10Revision of Knowledge, Versions and Acceptance of Norms
The paper sets rules for changing knowledge, its grounds, norms and chosen representations, connecting them with history, publication and current admission.
Read the entry pageP11Evaluation, Counterexamples and the Limits of Claims
The paper proposes a programme for testing meaning management as a whole process, from request to observable result and back-tracing.
Read the entry pageP12Knowledge Compilation: Preparing Results and the Admissibility of Reuse
The paper treats reuse of prepared results of extraction, retrieval, composition and professional preparation as a separate admission operation.
Read the entry pageP13Knowledge Utility, the Cost of Meaning Artifacts and Resource Management
The paper proposes a way to link the life cycle of meaning artifacts to observed resource use, conditions of application and results for specific recipients.
