Operations on Spaces of Information

Space-based computing environments are based around numerous, discrete sets of information with internal reasoning, interaction and semantics. These spaces of information can be treated as first-class entities and thus have direct interactions between themselves as spaces. We develop and formalise a simple set of base operations between individual spaces that preserves the integrity of the information contained within those spaces through larger grained semantic structures (eg: RDF molecules) and historical information about past interactions. We then show how this forms the basis of extended and possible-world queries and how such features are manifested in common scenarios.
