Abstract

It is best to introduce polyscopic modeling as an attitude towards information, rather than as a collection of techniques for managing and representing information. If polyscopic modeling is identified with its current implementation, then its development may be hindered. When, on the other hand, the underlying attitude is understood, those techniques that have so far been developed easily follow.
