Basics 2

Each region of the Paralogical model is similar to an algorithm having a simple set of rules.  Most of the regions are just interconnected algorithms that are electrical in nature.

The region containing sensors and the region containing actuators are real mechanical things.  The sensors allow information to enter the model and the actuators allow information to exit the model in the form of behaviors.  The region containing controllers is more electrical than mechanical.  However, it does not have a simple set of rules like the majority of the regions.  It has a highly complex set of rules used to make comparisons and form abstractions. All the remaining regions are electrical.  In the future these regions could be chemical or a combination of electrical, chemical or mechanical.

The algorithms are surprisingly simple.  The words I will be using in these algorithms are not often used together and will seem to be over simplified and odd at first.  The purpose of using such simple words was to define each word using it's predecessor.  The words still had to make sense when a given trilogy loops.  And the words needed to make sense across all three divisions.  For example, when you compare sensory skills, cognitive skills and behavioral skills you will find the words "qualify, justify and codify".  These words are loaded with meaning and support each other's definition.

As you read this list, keep in mind the algorithm is normally "add two or more of these to get one of these" or "divide this in half to get one of these".  When you find a better word to describe a given algorithm, and it fits the above criteria, please start using the better word.

To get one result you actually have to take two measurements; a starting point and an ending point.  Sometimes the starting point is zero and sometimes the starting point is the measurement you just finished making.

Basic Algorithms:

Two measurements = One result

Two results = One sensation

Two sensations = One impression

Two impressions = One awareness

Two awareness' = One essence

Two essences = One belief

Then we start the cognitive division where we compare two sequential beliefs:

Two comparisons = One abstraction

Two abstractions = One cognition

Two cognitions = One thought

Two thoughts = One idea

Two ideas = One mindset

Two mindsets = One decision

Another division jump to the behavioral regions where we try to match our decisions to our purpose and we go in descending order:

One purpose = Two applications

One application = Two routines

One routine = Two volitions

One volition = Two performances

One performance = Two potentials

One potential = Two behaviors

The first behavior is the current state of the actuator and the second behavior is where the actuator moves to if it is mechanical (or "per-forms" to if the actuator is electrical or chemical).  In the Paralogical model, a "behavior" is a static thing.  When two mechanical behaviors are performed back-to-back there is movement.

Then the whole thing starts over again.

There are internal and external sensors which will measure this behavior.  Some sensors are built into the actuators.  Most sensors and controllers will be located on a mechanical actuator.

These algorithms are interconnected and only show a simple loop through each trilogy.  When the trilogy loops a second or third time the information it creates will change and will need a new name to describe this new information.

When the model cycles through a complete revolution some algorithms may be open and waiting for new information before they can continue conveying.  This will change the nature of the information and this new information will also need a new name.

So, don't worry, these algorithms will get more complex.
