Evaluation Domains/List of Evaluation Domains

The purpose here is to create a Data Structure


 * Encapsulation - when common patterns are grouped together under a single name and then parameterized, in order to achieve a higher-level understanding of that pattern.
 * For example an operation requires two source values and writes the product of those two values to a given destination. The operation is /parameterized/ by both the two sources and the single destination.
 * Abstraction- a mechanism to hide the implementation details of an abstraction away from the users of the abstraction.
 * For example, when we multiply numbers, we don't necessarily want to see the technique actually used by the processor, we just need to know its /properties/."
 * /node/ a container for a value that also has a pointer to the "next" node (which could be "/null/"
 * Value
 * Next
 * Chain - A string of nodes

The technique used in obtaining some data from other data would be part of the /metadata/ ("Data about data") for a given.

First, we can think of spreadsheets. However, imagine that you can right-click on any given spreadsheet cell, and see links to more /cell/s and /algorithms/ and /sheets/

We start with three sections:


 * 1) Disciplines
 * 2) Approaches
 * 3) Evaluands

Within those, we have


 * 1) Sub-Disciplines
 * 2) Categories of Evaluative Process
 * 3) Perceptual / Intuitive (Tag: Process)
 * 4) Inferential / Scientific (Tag: Process)
 * 5) Holistic v. Analytic (Tag: Descriptive)
 * 6) Component / Dimensional
 * 7) Approaches
 * 8) Evaluands

Expand that further, and we have:


 * 1) Sub-Disciplines
 * 2) Categories of Evaluative Process
 * 3) Perceptual / Intuitive (Tag: Process)
 * 4) Perceptual <- Implies use of Sensory Organs
 * 5) Intuition <- Doesn’t imply use of sensory organs.
 * 6) Memory of Perceptions
 * 7) Heuristic Processes
 * 8) Conscious Logical Processes
 * 9) Inferential / Scientific (Tag: Process)
 * 10) Inferential <- Formalized
 * 11) Statistical
 * 12) Non-Statistical
 * 13) Formalized
 * 14) Scientific <- If it’s scientific its either inferential, or we would have to accept that trained intuition.
 * 15) Trained Intuition <- Intuition developed by comparison to baselines
 * 16) According to the
 * 17) Holistic v. Analytic (Tag: Descriptive)
 * 18) Holistic:
 * 19) Dimensional
 * 20) Analytic:
 * 21) Component
 * 22) Dimensional
 * 23) Approaches
 * 24) Evaluands
