This is a resource site for schemas theory research.

Schemas are the next higher level of abstraction from systems theory and encompass other schemas besides the system schema such as facets, monads, forms, openscapes, domains, worlds, kosmoi, and pluriverses. Find out more at http://emergentdesign.net, http://archonic.net, and https://independent.academia.edu/KentPalmer. Schemas Theory has been a research project for Kent Palmer for many years as a possible foundational paradigm shift for Systems Engineering and to provide a basis for Architectural Design methods in Software Engineering. For more about Schemas see Umberto Eco's Kant and the Platypus. Schemas were first proposed by I. Kant in Critique of Pure Reason. They were explored by R. Carnap in Logical Structure of the World, and mentioned by Wittgenstein in Philosophical Grammar. Schemas were a focus for E. Cassirer's NeoKantian philosophy. Various Continental philosophers like Husserl, Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty, Derrida, Deleuze, Bataille, Zizek, Badiou and others have contributed to the understanding of Schemas. Kent Palmer advanced the S-prime hypothesis that there are ten schemas that were the ones mentioned above and that there was a rule which is that there are two schemas per dimension and two dimensions per schema. This research initiative explores the ramifications of the S-prime hypothesis for the field of General Schemas Theory which is meant to study all the possible schemas within the Western worldview and their relations to each other and their mathematical underpinnings and implications for other disciplines such as Systems Engineering and Software Engineering.
