Abstract

We are moving towards the information society, and we need to overcome the discouraging perspective, which is caused by the false belief that our thoughts (and thereby also our acting) represent a somehow externally existing world. Indeed, it is already a step forward to proclaim that there exists a somehow common world for all people. But if those internal forms of representation are primarily bound to the subject itself, then, consequently, anybody can argue for his or her view of the world as being the “right” one. Well, what is the exit strategy out of this dilemma? It is information; information as understood in its actual and potential dimension, in its identity of structure and meaning. Such an approach requires a deeper elaborated conceptual approach. The goal of this study is to show that such a concept is glued by the strong relationship between seemingly unrelated disciplines: physics, semantics (semiotics/cognition) and computer science, and even poetry. But the terminus of information is nowadays discussed and elaborated in all those disciplines. Hence, there is no shortcut, no way around. The aim of this study is not even to show that those strong relationships exist. We will see within the same horizon that, based on such a concept, new kinds of computing systems are becoming possible. Nowadays energy consumption is becoming a major issue regarding computing systems. We will work towards an approach, which enables new devices consuming a minimum amount of energy and maximizing the performance at the same time. And within the same horizon it becomes possible to release the saved energy towards a new ethical spirit—towards the information society.

Highlights

  • We are moving towards the information society, and we need to overcome the discouraging perspective, which is caused by the false belief that our thoughts represent a somehow externally existing world

  • The main thesis and outline of this study is to show that we need to move towards a unification of somehow disparately looking subjects like physics, semantics and computing science

  • The heart of any such composition is new and causal information, which lays the foundation for a new overall arrangement of each person within her/his natural, biological and social environment

Summary

From Our Moral Stance towards Computing Systems

During the growth of the Great Rift Valley in Africa a couple of pre-human species (variations of Australopithecus) were forced to develop an upright position. The heart of any such composition is new and causal information, which lays the foundation for a new overall arrangement of each person within her/his natural, biological and social environment Such new compositions are created and indicated because they hold the capability to save or to use more efficiently the embodied energy with regard to potential action—in other words: to act more intelligently. The aim of this study is to encourage us and to stimulate us to act towards our own authenticity This authenticity is—or should be—developed and built with regards to a maximization of overall structural growth; including the mid- and long-term perspective. This is naturally supported by the impetus of fairness and fair acting. We have already highlighted such a concept, which will increase the structure of this world, and which is semantically bound to the critical term of “fairness”
