FOUNDED ON A REVOLUTIONARY
KNOWLEDGE SCIENCE

"He who calls in the aid of an equal understanding, doubles his own; and he who profits by a superior understanding, raises his powers to a level with the height of the understanding he unites with." – Burke
"Knowledge once gained casts a light upon its own boundries. – Tyndall
"It is the glorious prerogative of the empire of knowledge, that what it gains it never loses. On the contrary, it increases by the multiple of its own power: all its ends become means; all its attainments help to new conquests. - Daniel Webster

OVERVIEW

Knowledge Foundations, under the visionary direction of Dr. Richard L. Ballard, is the world’s leading innovator of theory-based Semantic Technologies. The Company’s purpose, goals, values, technology and methodologies are base on a knowledge science as defined by Ballard's Physical Theory of Knowledge and Computation, an extension of Claude Shannon's Theory of Communication, and the first scientific definition of knowledge as expressed in the formula: Knowledge = Theory + Information.

It is the goal and purpose of Knowledge Foundations to lead the world out of the Information Age were logic, repeat computation and structured programming schemas have reached their useful ends, into the Knowledge Age where semantic technologies operate at absolute bit limits without redundancy, complexity, or problems of interoperability; where every form of human knowledge is captured, and machines reason, learn, adapt and change their behaviors to solve complex problems on their own.

The company's technology roadmap details an evolving product line and industry that will revolutionize the way business is conducted worldwide. Mark I and Mark II semantic tools were proven through 50 projects of national importance with NASA, U.S. Government, DoD, Office of the White House and private enterprise. The vastly more powerful 3rd generation Mark III knowledgeasset development tools, on schedule for release mid-2006 in beta form, provide Knowledge Engineering entrepreneurs, corporations and government the means to capture their own domain knowledge used for strategic decision-making, immersive multi-media job training, expert replacements (professional expertise transfers to para-professionals), and knowledge permenance - capturing the knowledge of organizations for competitive advantage.

Later to be released collaborative systems introduce enterprise-wide knowledge capture for departments, divisions and corporate knowledge. For the first time, organizations will have the internal means to precisely access all their knowledge, to know their internal strengths and weaknesses, and to answer most strategic, mission trade-off, legally defensible or best practice answers at a moments notice across all domain knowledge.
