As a formal model of for a game situation, it is proposed to use a fuzzy-multiple representation of estimates of the possibilities of using players’ strategies and the corresponding consequences. The solution for this problem is based on the transformation of the fuzzy estimates of the results of possible solutions for each situation in the form of an equivalent fuzzy set that has a triangular membership function. The developed method does not impose restrictions on the affiliation functions of the initial fuzzy data. In addition to the selection of the best solution, an estimation of the result and the degree of feasibility is obtained.</p>","PeriodicalId":43962,"journal":{"name":"Scientific and Technical Information Processing","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140882925","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The subject domain of informatics is considered within Paul Rosenbloom’s concept of polyadic computing. The main goal of this article is to construct fragments of the upper levels of two classifications of the entities of the subject domain of informatics as a third culture (along with the natural sciences and the humanities, which C.P. Snow referred to as the two cultures). In this way, a number of already known bases are used to construct three levels of classification of objects of the subject domain (the first classification) and two levels of classification of transformations of these objects (the second classification). Both classifications are planned to be used to create a scientific paradigm of informatics as the third culture. The proposed fragments of classifications are positioned as the initial stage of the process of formation of the whole paradigm. The context and prerequisites for the creation of the proposed paradigm are considered, along with how the first results of its formation can be useful today.</p>","PeriodicalId":43962,"journal":{"name":"Scientific and Technical Information Processing","volume":"255 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140036051","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
