1. Introduction1.1. Overview of the Networked DIKWP Model

The Data-Information-Knowledge-Wisdom-Purpose (DIKWP) model is a comprehensive framework that describes the transformation and interaction of cognitive elements. Unlike hierarchical models, the networked DIKWP model, as proposed by Professor Yucong Duan, emphasizes that each component can interact and transform into any other component, including itself, resulting in 25 possible transformation modes (5 components × 5 components).

Components of the DIKWP Model:

  • Data (D): Raw, unprocessed facts, observations, or sensory inputs.

  • Information (I): Processed data that reveals patterns, relationships, or context.

  • Knowledge (K): Organized information that provides understanding, principles, or theories.

  • Wisdom (W): Deep insights that integrate knowledge with ethical and existential understanding.

  • Purpose (P): The driving intent, goals, or objectives that influence actions and cognitive processes.

Networked Transformations:

Each component can transform into any other, including itself, forming a complex network of interactions:

From \ ToDIKWP
DD→DD→ID→KD→WD→P
II→DI→II→KI→WI→P
KK→DK→IK→KK→WK→P
WW→DW→IW→KW→WW→P
PP→DP→IP→KP→WP→P

This model allows for a detailed analysis of how different elements influence one another in the context of the evolution of philosophy throughout history.

1.2. The Four Spaces Framework

The Four Spaces Framework provides a multidimensional perspective to analyze cognitive and communicative processes:

  • Conceptual Space (ConC): The realm of ideas, theories, and abstract constructs. It involves the development and structuring of philosophical concepts and frameworks.

  • Cognitive Space (ConN): The domain of mental processes, including reasoning, perception, and introspection. It encompasses the cognitive activities of philosophers and thinkers.

  • Semantic Space (SemA): The network of meanings, interpretations, and associations between philosophical terms, symbols, and language.

  • Conscious Space: The layer that involves awareness, ethics, existential reflections, and societal values. It reflects the ethical considerations and moral judgments in philosophy.

1.3. Objective and Scope of the Analysis

The objective of this analysis is to:

  • Apply the networked DIKWP model to the historical evolution of philosophy, illustrating how different components interact and transform into each other.

  • Integrate the Four Spaces framework to provide a multidimensional understanding of philosophical development.

  • Provide detailed explanations and examples for each historical period, demonstrating the application of the models.

  • Present comparison tables to facilitate understanding of complex concepts.

  • Discuss insights and implications of the analysis, including the evolution of concepts, cognitive processes, semantic shifts, and ethical considerations.

  • Offer a comprehensive reference for further study and exploration of the subject.
