Note: Domain Theory

Posted in Notes

The dominion of God: God has power and authority to rule over all things, but why? The idea of domain theory provides a descriptive process for explaining how God must
logically be the ruler of all things in order to be God. Likewise, it can be used to describe hierarchies of information and processes within Creation. Some examples follow.

Domain theory with reference to computer programming:

"As mentioned before, domain theory deals with partially ordered sets to model a domain of computation. The goal is to interpret the elements of such an order as pieces of information or (partial) results of a computation, where elements that are higher in the order extend the information of the elements below them in a consistent way. From this simple intuition it is already clear that domains often do not have a greatest element, since this would mean that there is an element that contains the information of all other elements - a rather uninteresting situation." From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_theory

[Personally, I think the idea, when applied to the infinite domain, sounds very interesting.]

In relation to Aristotelian logic - go here.
In relation to moral education - go here.
In relation to electrons and molecular structures - go here.
