These approaches are hierarchies, trees, paradigms, and faceted analysis. Examples are provided of the way in which knowledge and the classification process affect each other.

Reasons for this are suggested, and the compilation of early indexes for religious purposes is discussed.

In a first important abstracting step SALOMON performs an initial categorization of legal criminal cases and structures the case text into...

The question of the seigneurial rights is in the debates's...

This article suggests that writers on the subject may have actually been appropriating a technology that had by that point in time become fairly standard.
