New blog on knowledge evolution.

This new blog is an offshoot of my other blog named Impact Analysis (link at right). Impact analysis is typically taken to be a software engineering task, related to program code. However, current software includes may forms of knowledge and information than program code. It's clear that all these forms of knowledge change and evolve over the life of hardware and software systems. I'm interested in finding the aspects of these changes that are independent of the specific representation and function.

I'm undertaking a new research direction on the problems of information provenance beginning this October. I'll be publishing the results of my literature reviews and other investigations as I can. Please feel free to chime in.
