....granular partitions presented by Bittner and Smith in [BS02] seeks to provide a general and unified basis for understanding such phenomena in formal terms. Its aim is to contribute to an understanding of the granular and selective character of human common sense. Related work in this area includes [Hob85, BWJ98, Ste, Ste00, Don01, Bit02]. The theory of granular partitions has two parts. The first is a theory of classification (Theory A) It describes the tree structures of these classificatory systems. The second is a theory of reference or intentionality (Theory B) It provides an account of how those tree structures relate to ....

....approaches, and on finding ways to bridge the qualitative quantitative divide, so that algorithms can be found for moving back and forth between the qualitativate spatial representations of 2 common sense and the discrete, digital representations used in applications. Galton 1999, Stell 1999, 2000) Mereotopology resists a similarly realistic extension to a theory of granularity however. This is because such a theory would presuppose a means of talking about objects (at different resolutions) without at the same time talking about all the parts of those objects (at all finer grains) In ....

....our understanding of the mereology of vague regions. There are several directions for further work based on the ideas in this paper. A particularly promising area for further work would be to consider relations between abstract graphs in the context of work on discrete representations of space [Ste00b] A data model for graphs in spatial databases has been investigated by Erwig and Guting [EG94] and a discussion of notions of part and complement for graphs appears in work by Stell and Worboys [SW97] As there is more than one notion of complement for graphs, some work is needed to investigate ....

....approximations of the more detailed ones. One direction for future investigation is to extend the techniques in this paper to the case where the regions being approximated are discrete, rather than continuous. This could make use of the algebraic approach to qualitative discrete space presented in [Ste00]. Another direction of ongoing research is to apply techniques presented in this paper to the temporal domain [Bit00] ....

....assumed that the indeterminate regions relate to continuous space. One direction for further work would be to apply analogous techniques to discrete space. The topic of qualitative accounts of discrete space has been discussed in recent papers by Galton [14] by Masolo and Vieu [20] and by Stell [24]. The basic idea of an egg yolk region can be readily extended to discrete regions. However, several issues in the treatment of crisp discrete space need to be settled before indeterminate discrete spaces can be dealt with. As Galton has shown [14] the direct analogues of the RCC8 relations on ....
