Information oriented software development
Information Oriented Software Development is a software development methodology focused on working with information inside a computer program as opposed to working with just data. A significant difference exists between data and information.<ref>[1] Data vs. Information</ref> Information Oriented Software Development relies on data structures specifically designed to hold information, and relies on frameworks that support those data structures.<ref>[2] Information Oriented</ref> Information oriented software development focuses on the conceptual needs of users and customers rather than the data storage models and object models.
Information data structures
Information data structures are data structures specifically intended to support information inside a computer program. Two common ones are as follows:
- Data structures to support Fuzzy logic.
- Data structures to support concept combinations and concept Permutations.<ref>[3] An Ontological and Epistemological Perspective of Fuzzy Set Theory</ref><ref>[4] Endemes are an Information Structure</ref>
