	Classics in the History of Psychology -- Hebb (1955)
		But the conceptual nervous system of 1930 was evidently like the gin that was being drunk about the same time; it was homemade and none too good, as Skinner pointed out, but it was also habit-forming; and the effort to escape has not really been successful.
		The arousal system can be thought of as representing a second major pathway by which all sensory excitations reach the cortex, as shown in the upper part of Fig.
		There is reason to think, for example, that the arousal system may not be homogeneous, but may consist of a number of subsystems with distinctive functions (38).

	Formal system - Open Encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		In logic, mathematics, and computer science, a formal system is a formal grammar used for modelling purposes.
		Formalization is the act of creating a formal system, in an attempt to capture the essential features of a real-world or conceptual system in formal language.
		On the other hand, David Hilbert founded metamathematics as a discipline designed for discussing formal systems; it is not assumed that the metalanguage in which proofs are studied is itself less informal than the usual habits of mathematicians suggest.

		In an information system, a level of consideration at which all aspects deal with the interpretation and manipulation of information describing a particular universe of discourse or entity world.
		A system design activity concerned with specifying the logical aspects of the system organization, its processes, and the flow of information through the system.

	The Concept of Concept in 'Conceptual Legal Information Retrieval' (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Conceptual models will be considered as an intermediate step between concrete systems (objects in the world of experience) and formal models.
		The system compares the exemplars to all other documents and it is likely that, along with relevant documents, it will come up with documents that deal with criminal evidence in general as well as the use of eye-witnesses evidence in civil law cases.
		On the basis of our hypothesis, that the system is capable of ranking documents according to their relevance, it is possible to draw even more interesting graphs of the relationships between the concepts as well as the position of individual documents.

	Conceptual Comparison and Conceptual Innovation
		To achieve the level of generality I wish to pursue, I will talk of "conceptual systems" and their "extra-systemic" subject matter -- where that subject matter is external to the system of concepts that is used to describe it.
		I suspect that this is a direct result of his focus on the active use of concepts and their embodiment in habits, since to master a concept in use we need learn only its implications and transitions.
		The former thesis requires that examples of conceptual change be viewed as cases in which one concept is replaced by a different concept, but this does not alter the point that we can still explore similarities and differences between a concept and its replacement.

	Conceptual Speech Technologies, LLC's Home Page
		Conceptual Speech Recognition uses phonetic, syntactic, statistical and conceptual analysis to accurately calculate and react to concepts conveyed by speakers.
		For this reason, Conceptual Speech Technologies, LLC has to explore options to allocate further financing to develop its own speech recognition engine and/or wait for one of the major speech engine to be adapted in such a way that it will become possible to integrate this statistical bias and improve conceptual speech recognition's performance.
		CLUE applies the same principals used in Conceptual Speech recognition to digital text, and enables it to be analyzed in such a way that a true understanding of the concepts communicated can be extracted and reacted to without human intervention.

	History of Twentieth-Century Philosophy of Science Book 8
		His general thesis is that (1) scientific revolutions involve transformations in conceptual and propositional systems, (2) kind-hierarchies and part-hierarchies structure conceptual systems, and (3) relations of explanatory coherence structure propositional systems.
		Thagard opposes his psychological account of conceptual change to the view that the development of scientific knowledge can be fully understood in terms of belief revision, the prevailing view in analytic philosophy.
		Thagard maintains that a conceptual system can be analyzed as a computational network of nodes with each node corresponding to a concept, and each line in the network corresponding to a link between concepts.

	Categories (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		While formal and material category systems each form a hierarchy (1913/1962, 64), considered jointly their categories are not mutually exclusive, since one and the same entity may be categorized either in terms of its material nature or its form.
		They, too, explicitly offer their system of categories in the spirit of categorial description, as offering an analysis of the various possible categories of being, rather than making any claims about which of these categories is non-empty (1994, 7-8).
		Both realist and descriptivist category systems, at least as traditionally presented, seem to presuppose that there is a unique true answer to the question of what the highest genera are — indeed the discovery of this answer is the goal of most such inquiries into ontological categories.

	Untitled Document
		Semantic memory, the classic view of the conceptual system, typically portrays it as modular, amodal, abstractive, and static.
		According to this perspective, the conceptual system is non-modular and modal because it shares representational mechanisms with modality-specific systems in the brain.
		Because the optimal conceptualization of a category varies across different courses of situated action, category representations are dynamic, not static.

		Obviously, there is a feedback between one's ability to invent and systematize new concepts by himself and a conceptual system acquired through learning: a more learned person is more inventive, and a more inventive one is more capable of learning new things.
		The task to be performed to grant the system high efficiency will include a systematization of concepts which should approximate axiomatic systems (as much as possible and necessary).
		The old Leibniz's dream of universal characteristic, that is a system of concepts so arranged that mere combinations of signs guide problem-solving, to some extent may revive in a system forming the common core of all conceptual systems relevant to our civilization.

	CiteULike: Conceptual descriptions of systems: Data and laws (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		The author's extension of Mathematical System Theory to Conceptual System Theory (Wolff [20,22]) using Formal Concept Analysis (Wille [15]) is fundamental for this paper.
		Based on Conceptual Time Systems using the notion of `time granules' and the concept lattices of state and phase spaces the relations between the two main descriptions of systems, namely the descriptions by data and by laws (or models) are studied.
		To that purpose we introduce the notion of a conceptual law of a class of formal contexts, called worlds, with respect to a given interpretation of the attributes in these worlds.

	Linguist List - Dissertation Abstracts
		In analysing the nature and organisation of the conceptual system for time, it is held that time is not a single concept, but rather a category of distinct, albeit related, concepts.
		Based on linguistic and empirical evidence it is suggested that these temporal concepts are structured not by virtue of fixed knowledge structures, the 'conceptual metaphors' of Grady (1997), and Lakoff and Johnson (1980, 1999), etc., but due to the elaborative requirements of the particular temporal concepts.
		This approach, which is termed concept elaboration, treats the elaboration of temporal concepts as a means of achieving representational status--becoming fully accessible to the conceptual system.

	CiteULike: Grounding conceptual knowledge in modality-specific systems (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		The human conceptual system contains knowledge that supports all cognitive activities, including perception, memory, language and thought.
		According to most current theories, states in modality-specific systems for perception, action and emotion do not represent knowledge - rather, redescriptions of these states in amodal representational languages do.
		Together these empirical results and theoretical analyses implicate modality-specific systems in the representation and use of conceptual knowledge.

	OPS #12 - Story Telling and Educational Understanding, Denny, 1978
		Ethnographic description is framed by a conceptual system believed by the writer to represent the reasons behind the way things are.
		Story telling is an attempt to employ ancient conceptualizations characterized by little imagination and focused on directly observable referents.
		In the early seventies he claimed educational research needed a new breed of conceptualizers; "Scholars who approach the problems of practice rather than the problems of the disciplines when they attempt to understand educational events" (Atkin, 1973, P.4).

		Drawing on her extensive research, she illustrates how these processes form the conceptual basis for language and advanced thought, stressing the importance of distinguishing automatic perceptual processes from conceptualizations about what is perceived.
		She argues that these two kinds of learning, though sometimes confounded in psychological experimentation, follow different principles, and that it is crucial to specify the particular kind of learning required by a given task.
		Early preverbal concepts, although typically more general than infant perceptual categories, allow infants to make the inductive generalizations necessary for them to form theories about the world and organize their developing conceptual system into a recognizably adult form.
