Knowledgedynamics and Thermodynamics

The purpose of this paper is to present a metaphorical analysis for Knowledgedynamics using the main concepts of Thermodynamics. Following the Andriessen's method we are going to define Thermodynamics as a source domain, and Knowledgedynamics as the target domain. Our analysis will discover the...
