Topics
Everything published here, sorted by subject.
Every piece here is filed under one or more topics. The lists below are generated by Ghost and always show everything currently published under that heading.
Ontology
Ontologies, semantic layers and the machine-readable description of a business — what they are for, and what they are repeatedly claimed to solve but do not.
Business Architecture
Capabilities, information objects, value streams and ownership: the discipline of describing an organisation well enough that decisions about it can be made deliberately.
AI
Applied AI in the enterprise, with an emphasis on what agentic systems actually require from an organisation before they can be relied on.
Authorship
Who writes, who answers for it, and what has to be disclosed — questions that predate language models and have become sharper because of them.
Research
Ongoing work on governability and institutional authority: what an organisation has to represent about itself before it can govern what it does, and what delegation to agentic systems changes about that question.
Research Integrity
Detection, disclosure and the norms of scholarly publishing, including where those norms are themselves contested.
