    OntoLix and OntoLinux Website update
    We added in the list of components of OntoBot:

  • [Maude] (includes Rewriting Logic) and
  • [XSB] (includes Prolog with tabled resolution and HiLog extension permitting limited higher-order logic programming, and Flora)

    to show once again where the Rewriting Logic, Higher-Order Logic (HOL), F-Logic, Transaction Logic, and Defeasible Logic are refer- enced all the time.

    Reminders: With the Rewriting Logic we even have non-deterministic methods at hand, which in combination with for example GnT - Generate'n'Test literally spoken results in a totally different quality, specifically in relation with creative, unknown problems solving agents like our OntoBot. Yes indeed, if compared with an artist, then the combination of our OntoBot and OntoScope components is far beyond e.g. Pablo Picasso. In this sense: We find and try.

    Also, the HOL theorem proving systems Isabelle/HOL and Proto- type Verification System (PVS) can be found in the section Formal Verfic- ation of the Links to Software webpage since the 18th of August 2009.

    Investigations: AI and Knowledge management

  • General: We have found a paper of two authors, who claim to have developed the bottom-up approach of the emergence of con- sciousness and explain it once again by copying the related part of our Ontologic System Architecture (OSA) by using the terms Theory of Everything, evolution, emergence, semantic, symbolic reasoning, linguistics, word-net, components, robot, internal model, intention, planning ahead and prediction, simulation, action, cognition, reflexive consciousness, emotion, etc., as well as the red circles of the logo of Ontologics in some of the paper's graphics. It should be very easy to find all terms in The Proposal, the webpages of OntoLinux, like for example Overview, specifically its section Integrating Architecture, Caliber, Links to Software, Links to Hardware, and so on, and the referenced works.
    Besides this bold specific plagiarism we found several more such papers in its reference list, which we will push through a software tool for finding plagiarisms as well.

    Open eyetap™

    Ontonics Further steps
    Just for fun we developed another simulated 4D light-field display. Maybe we will add a special variant of it to the Open Glasses project or alternatively start the Open EyeTap project.

    We analyzed a technology and its different variants and concluded that the actual applied variants work not optimally, while a newer general variant of us is only applied for a specific application so far. Now, we generalized our newer variant to a revolutionary solution.

    Also, we improved a technology in two different ways.


    03.April.2015
    Ontonics Further steps
    Thanks to two of the usual freeloaders we saw that we had describ- ed a more general approach implicitly on the one hand, which we can exploit to strengthen our strategy to protect our intellectual properties and broaden our intellectual property portfolios in the related fields on the other hand.

    Also, we improved a technology in two further different ways.


    04.April.2015
    Ontonics Further steps
    Honestly, we are a little confused but not due to the lack of knowledge but due to the opposite. In a concrete case we looked at the foundations of a technology and found several ways of optimizations. So far so good, but here is the confusion: the factor of optimiziation is not 10, 100 or 1000 times of a value x respectively measured in orders of magnitude but at least x³.
    Now, the main questions are how much of these optimizations is al- ready known, how can the optimizations be realized, and how much of the theoretical limits can be achieved in practice.

    We also made an observation about an application of a method that reminded us of its application in a totally different technological field. This resulted into an idea about a different system architecture bas- ed on this method as the central component.

    The 55* to 80 days smartwatch with coloured e-paper display is coming (* assuming around 20-30 notifications a day and a per- minute updating watchface).

    But it comes even better:
    The 90* to 130 days smart feature watch is coming (* assuming around 20-30 notifications a day and a common digital or mechan- ical watch movement).

    But it comes even better:
    New designs and functions are coming, and they are really, really, really ...
    ... great.

    But it comes even better:
    :D

    Ontonics Further steps
    While we thought once again about the other kind of system arch- itecture mentioned in the Further steps of the 4th of April 2015, we thought about adding another method from a totally different tech- nological field as a further central component. But before we could formulate the whole concept emerging in that moment, we found out that this second method is already based on the first method. Indeed, this was again one of these phenomena when everything simply fit together in a perfect way.
    But it comes even much better. Because we had now a new system architecture that reminded us of another system architecture, on which we worked some months ago, we thought about the possibility that this other system architecture fits together with this new system architecture as well.

    And while we were writing this news, it all came together to one coherent system architecture. This thing is really fascinating and very puzzling.

    In subsequent steps we thought about an optimized hardware on the one hand and on the other hand about the question if this new system architecture would be more advantageous and beneficial than the common system architecture due to a change of require- ments.

    Furthermore, we developed a new elementary subcomponent that was missing to make perfect the improved technology mentioned in the Further steps of the 31st of March 2015. Yes, we mean the technology, that we called very seriously crazy, crazy, crazy, holy whatosever, and in the last days we got a slight presentiment where it leads us to.

    Besides this, we developed a further battery technology respectively variant of an existing battery technology. Why not?

    iRaiment Further steps
    The healthcare versions are coming in a complete smartwatch variant and a throwaway variant (see the Further steps of the 4th of December 2014) before other companies make too much mess in this area with their smartwatches and might even crash the whole wearable computing sector.


    11.April.2015
    iRaiment Further steps
    We developed two new smartwatch models.

    Roboticle Further steps
    We developed two special Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) models, one in four variants, based on one of our platforms, which is also used for the OntoLab project On-Line (see its issue #2 of the 30th of March 2015).

    "Truth is Treason in an Empire of Lies.", [George Orwell]
    We keep promises and stay true to the treason.

    Ontonics Further steps
    We are pleased to give the newest informations about our optimized chip production process.
    With our optimized processing steps we are able to produce geo- metries and structures:

  • more precisely or finer,
  • smaller under 20 nm, and
  • less expensively

    than with the common techniques, which results in an:

  • increased quality of chips,
  • increased density of subcomponents (e.g. transistor and interconnect),
  • decreased consumption of electric power, as well as
  • reduced production cost.

    Our improved processing technique also allows the manufacturing of much more advanced microsystems.

    While we are already far ahead in comparison to the competitors with our parts, subcomponents, components, modules, systems, and end products based on advanced materials, techniques, and techno- logies, this new processing technique:

  • pushes us even farther ahead in the competition,
  • in addition and very important as well, makes us completely independent and keeps our intellectual properties in-house, finally, and
  • provides the foundation to even push further disrupting the semi- conductor industry and other industrial sectors with our highly innovative and uncomparable solutions.

    iRaiment Further steps
    We developed a new smartwatch model series further, which is really beautiful and has very much potential.

    Roboticle Further steps
    We developed a fifth variant of one of the two new special Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) models mentioned in the Further steps of yesterday.

    Comment of the Day #1

    Was gesagt werden muss

    Warum schweige ich, verschweige zu lange,
    was offensichtlich ist und in Planspielen
    geübt wurde, an deren Ende als Überlebende
    wir allenfalls Fußnoten sind.

    Es ist das behauptete Recht auf den Erstschlag,
    der das von einem Maulhelden unterjochte
    und zum organisierten Jubel gelenkte
    iranische Volk auslöschen könnte,
    weil in dessen Machtbereich der Bau
    einer Atombombe vermutet wird.

    Doch warum untersage ich mir,
    jenes andere Land beim Namen zu nennen,
    in dem seit Jahren - wenn auch geheimgehalten -
    ein wachsend nukleares Potential verfügbar
    aber außer Kontrolle, weil keiner Prüfung
    zugänglich ist?

    Das allgemeine Verschweigen dieses Tatbestandes,
    dem sich mein Schweigen untergeordnet hat,
    empfinde ich als belastende Lüge
    und Zwang, der Strafe in Aussicht stellt,
    sobald er mißachtet wird;
    das Verdikt "Antisemitismus" ist geläufig.

    Jetzt aber, weil aus meinem Land,
    das von [... einem] Verbrechen,
    [...],
    Mal um Mal eingeholt und zur Rede gestellt wird,
    wiederum und rein geschäftsmäßig, wenn auch
    mit flinker Lippe als Wiedergutmachung deklariert,
    ein weiteres U-Boot nach Israel
    geliefert werden soll, dessen Spezialität
    darin besteht, allesvernichtende Sprengköpfe
    dorthin lenken zu können, wo die Existenz
    einer einzigen Atombombe unbewiesen ist,
    doch als Befürchtung von Beweiskraft sein will,
    sage ich, was gesagt werden muß.

    Warum aber schwieg ich bislang?
    Weil ich meinte, meine Herkunft,
    [...],
    verbiete, diese Tatsache als ausgesprochene Wahrheit
    dem Land Israel, dem ich verbunden bin
    und bleiben will, zuzumuten.

    Warum sage ich jetzt erst,
    gealtert und mit letzter Tinte:
    Die Atommacht Israel gefährdet
    den ohnehin brüchigen Weltfrieden?
    Weil gesagt werden muß,
    was schon morgen zu spät sein könnte;
    auch weil wir [...] Zulieferer
    eines Verbrechens werden könnten,
    das voraussehbar ist, weshalb unsere Mitschuld
    durch keine der üblichen Ausreden
    zu tilgen wäre.

    Und zugegeben: ich schweige nicht mehr,
    weil ich der Heuchelei des Westens
    überdrüssig bin; zudem ist zu hoffen,
    es mögen sich viele vom Schweigen befreien,
    den Verursacher der erkennbaren Gefahr
    zum Verzicht auf Gewalt auffordern und
    gleichfalls darauf bestehen,
    daß eine unbehinderte und permanente Kontrolle
    des israelischen atomaren Potentials
    und der iranischen Atomanlagen
    durch eine internationale Instanz
    von den Regierungen beider Länder zugelassen wird.

    Nur so ist allen, den Israelis und Palästinensern,
    mehr noch, allen Menschen, die in dieser
    vom Wahn okkupierten Region
    dicht bei dicht verfeindet leben
    und letztlich auch uns zu helfen.

    Günter Grass, 4. April 2012

    Was den meisten BürgerInnen natürlich nicht gesagt wurde, ist die Tatsache, dass Israel noch ein U-Boot bekommt.

    These small but interesing images show a see-through respectively Optical Head-Mounted Display (OHMD) as part of an Augmented Reality (AR) system with a connection to a bord computer, if we remember correctly. Honestly, we were shocked a little as well when we found out how old this system is and how advanced it really was at the time of its invention.
    Most potentially more such systems exist and one of it was also described by us with the first generation of the combination of our Head-Mounted Display@Car and Space@Car technologies by Style of Speed.

    Ontonics Further steps
    We are pleased to give the informations that we have added a fur- ther production technique for our truely transparent, highly brilliant, extremely fast, and very power efficient Carbon based Quantum dot based Light Emitting Diode (CQLED™) display devices, which also offers a faster, larger, and less expensive display production on the one side and the possibility of integration with our other production techniques on the other side.

    In addition, the production of our CQLED displays and e.g. digital windows and windscreens based on them, has come much closer to their introduction, we guess around 12 to 18 months sooner, which means that with a little luck it could happen at the end of the year already.


    14.April.2015

    We improved a foundational technology simply but significantly, which now provides a higher performance for all related applications.

    We continued the work related with our multimodal multimedia codecs and network protocols for our 3D display technology (see also the related Further steps of the 14th of February 2015 and 15th of March 2015).
    We made two interesting observations, could confirm that some features demanded by third parties are already part of the design, and also can already see that it will be faster.

    Style of Speed Further steps
    We looked once again on a full hybrid powertrain (see the images below), which fits very will into our models HE, Amarok-E, S!, and Big S, overworked and improved it in several ways, and gave the final result the label Synergetic™ or Synergistic™ powertrain.

    Today, it seems to be that more ideas included in the description of a part of the basic software stack respectively foundational archit- ecture of OntoLix, which we publicated on the 9th of November 2014, have been confirmed to be inventions indeed, like also the integration of a standard C library (libc) such as e.g. musl and the POSIX extension Capsicum called capsicumlibc by us.
    In the past, the integration of a microkernel, specifically one member of the L4 microkernel family, with a software container deployment system has been suggested as well some months after our publicat- ion.
