Moderate structural realism about space-time
Michael Esfeld & Vincent Lam University of Lausanne, Department of Philosophy & Centre romand for logic, history and philosophy of science CH-1015 Lausanne, Switzerland [email protected], [email protected] (Draft, 8 June 2006, forthcoming in Synthese) Abstract This paper sets out a moderate version of metaphysical structural realism that stands in contrast to both the epistemic s...
متن کاملTime in the mind: using space to think about time.
How do we construct abstract ideas like justice, mathematics, or time-travel? In this paper we investigate whether mental representations that result from physical experience underlie people's more abstract mental representations, using the domains of space and time as a testbed. People often talk about time using spatial language (e.g., a long vacation, a short concert). Do people also think a...
متن کاملSome Algebras and Algorithms for Reasoning about Time and Space
Constraint networks over relation algebras are deened. Compass algebras are introduced for reasoning about space. They are related to the interval algebras, which are used for reasoning about time. The problem of determining whether a network has a closed zeroless reduction is shown to NP-complete for almost all compass and interval algebras. This implies constraint satisfaction for these algeb...
متن کاملDeveloping New Models to Reason about Time and Space
Cyber-physical systems (CPS) tightly integrate physical processes with cyber-control and monitoring. The difference between CPS and traditional embedded systems lies in the degree of integration of software systems with physical systems, the scale and complexity of the integrated systems, and the reliance on sensing, computation, and actuation via networks. New scientific foundations for specif...
متن کاملRelation Algebras for Reasoning about Time and Space
This paper presents a brief introduction to relation algebras, including some examples motivated by work in computer science, namely, the ‘interval algebras’, relation algebras that arose from James Allen’s work on temporal reasoning, and by ‘compass algebras’, which are designed for similar reasoning about space. One kind of reasoning problem, called a ‘constraint satisfaction problem’, can be...
