Grounding Knowledge of Engineering Applications in Systematic Terms

In the main research of internet-computing enabled knowledge management, we use some of the most advanced research scenarios, arguing that we critically need a system approach to question where knowledge comes from. In particular, within a given engineering domain, we synthesis the problems and reveal, that the knowledge is embraced by interactions among systems, system observers, observables, engineering objects and instruments; that the complex system interactions must be dispatched into infrastructural layers based on physicsontologies; that the ontologies must be dedicated to human and data communications. Such a synthesis would impact on knowledge technologies for solving engineering problems in scalabilities, as well as in collective vocabularies that must associate with the communication crossing the layers in the problem solving environment.
