Abstract

Classification can be thought of as defining subject matter classes, and assigning information bearing items (IBEs) to those classes as a way to support organization and retrieval of those IBEs. This corresponds to a Platonic view in which subjects reside in a world of abstractions, and real world IBEs are mapped to them (many-te-many) as accurately as possible.
