Toward a Theory of Granular Computing

A theory of granular computing is presented. Some classical example are examined to obtain the hint of new directions Obvious examples are dynamic programming, fuzzy numbers, infinitesimal number and access control model, (pre)topological spaces are examined; Localized multi-level granulation can be modeled by generalized topological spaces, called neighborhood systems. For most general granulation are modeled by Tarski type relational structures.
