A conceptualschema or conceptual data model is a map of concept s and their Relational model relationships . This describes the semantics of an organization and represents a series of Logical assertion assertion s about its nature. Specifically, it describes the things of significance to an organization entity classes , about which it is inclined to collect information, and characteristics of attributes and associations between pairs of those things of significance relationships . Overview Because a conceptualschema represents the semantics of an organization, and not a database design , it may exist on various levels of abstraction. The original ANSI four schema architecture began with the set of external schemas that each represent one person s view of the world around him or her. These are consolidated into a single conceptualschema that is the superset of all of those external views. A data model can be as concrete as each person s perspective, but this tends to make it inflexible. If that person s world changes, the model must change. Conceptual data models take a more abstract perspective, identifying the fundamental things, of which the things an individual deals with are just examples. The model does allow for what is called Inheritance computer science inheritance in object oriented terms.

The T schema or truth schema not to be confused with Convention T is used to give an inductive definition of truth which lies at the heart of any realisation of Alfred Tarski s semantic theory of truth .

T theories form the basis of much fundamental work in philosophical logic , where they are applied in several important controversies in analytic philosophy . As expressed in semi natural language where S is the name of the sentence abbrivated to S S is true if and only if S Example snow is white is true if and only if snow is white. The inductive definition By using the schema one can give an inductive definition for the truth of compound sentences. Atomic sentences are assigned truth value s disquotationally. For example, the sentence Snow is white is true becomes materially equivalent with the sentence snow is white , i.e. snow is white is true if and only if snow is white. The truth of more complex sentences is defined in terms of the components of the sentence A sentence of the form A and B is true if and only if A is true and B is true A sentence of the form A or B is true if and only if A is true or B is true A sentence of the form if A then B is true if and only if A is false or B is true see material implication .

Unreferenced date December 2009 A logical schema is a data model of a specific problem domain expressed in terms of a particular data management technology. Without being specific to a particular database management product, it is in terms of either relational tables and columns, object oriented classes, or XML tags. This is as opposed to a conceptual data model , which describes the semantics of an organization without reference to technology, or a physical data model , which describes the particular physical mechanisms used to capture data in a storage medium. The next step in creating a database , after the logical schema is produced, is to create the physical schema .

In the American National Standards Institute ANSI four schema architecture, the internal schema was the view of data that involved data management technology. This was as opposed to the external schema that reflected the view of each person in the organization, or the conceptualschema that was the integration of a set of external schemas. Subsequently the internal schema was recognized to have two parts The logical schema was the way data were represented to conform to the constraints of a particular approach to database management. At that time the choices were hierarchical and network. Describing the logical schema, however, still did not describe how physically data would be stored on disk drives. That is the domain of the physical schema . Now logical schemas describe data in terms of relational tables and columns , object oriented classes , and XML tags . A single set of tables, for example, can be implemented in numerous ways, up to and including an architecture where table rows are maintained on computers in different countries.

Conceptual architecture is a term used to describe certain buildings and practices that make use of conceptualism in architecture. Conceptual architecture is characterized by an introduction of ideas or concepts from outside of architecture often as a means of expanding the discipline of architecture. This produces an essentially different kind of building than one produced by the widely held architect as a master builder model, in which craft and construction are the guiding principles. The finished building as product is less important in conceptual architecture, than the ideas guiding them, ideas represented primarily by texts, diagrams, or art installations. Architects that work in this vein are Diller and Scofidio Diller Scofidio , Bernard Tschumi , Peter Eisenman and Rem Koolhaas . Conceptual architecture was studied in the essay, Notes on Conceptual Architecture Towards a Definition by Peter Eisenman in 1970, and again by the Harvard Design Magazine in Fall of 2003 and Winter 2004, by a series of articles under the heading Architecture as Conceptual Art . But the understanding of design as a construction of a concept was understood by many modern architecture modernist architects as well. To quote Louis Kahn on Frank Lloyd Wright It doesn t work, it doesn t have to work. Wright had the shape conceived long before he knew what was going into it.

Conceptual semantics is a framework for semantic analysis developed mainly by Ray Jackendoff . Its aim is to provide a characterization of the conceptual elements by which a person understands words and sentences, and thus to provide an explanatory semantic representation title of a Jackendoff 1976 paper . Explanatory in this sense refers to the ability of a given linguistic theory to describe how a component of language is acquired by a child as proposed by Noam Chomsky see Levels of adequacy . Recently, conceptual semantics in particular, and lexical semantics in general, have taken on increasing importance in linguistics and psycholinguistics. Many contemporary theories of syntax how sentences are constructed from individual words rely on elements that are idiosyncratic to words themselves. As a result, a sound theory accounting for the properties of the meanings of words is required.

Conceptual history also the history of concepts or, from German, Begriffsgeschichte is a term used to describe a branch of the humanities , in particular of historical and cultural studies, which deals with the historical semantics of terms. It sees the etymology and the change in meaning of terms as forming a crucial basis for contemporary cultural, conceptual and linguistic understanding. Conceptual history deals with the evolution of paradigmatic ideas and value systems over time, such as liberty or reform. It argues that social history indeed all historical reflection must begin with an understanding of historically contingent cultural values and practices in their particular contexts over time, not merely as unchanging ideologies or processes i.e. as in Marxism . Interest in conceptual history was given a particular boost in the 20th century through the publication of the Historisches W rterbuch der Philosophie , the Geschichtliche Grundbegriffe and the journal Archiv f r Begriffsgeschichte . Conceptual history is an interdisciplinary methodology. Alongside the philosopher Joachim Ritter , the historian s Otto Brunner and Reinhart Koselleck and the sociologist Erich Rothacker are viewed as the leading scholars of the research area in the German speaking world and internationally.
