SPHINX SECOND BRAIN Arranges your Knowledge : Mirror of your brain knowledge order.
You already have a permanent classification for all your knowledge in your brain. This is certainly not ordered by the alphabet. SPHINX tries to transfer the classification concept of the human brain to your PC. This is the key for future fast information and document retrieval. This is the peculiarity of the SPHINX system: Its classification is derived from the network of cross- connections in the human brain. The SPHINX System is a mirror of thought.

You should avoid usual primitive alphabetical or date-based classification for contents.
It means to violate the unwritten rules of intelligence. It is like governmental bureaucracy instead of wise government. With SPHINX your PC becomes an extension of your mind. The intention is to create the bridge between your thinking and the knowledge content on your PC.

Additional benefits: Data security.
The SPHINX concepts enables to easily back up your valuable data on as many storage devices as you like. Never again lose your files. Never again lose your documents in case of a hard disk crash. For your confidential data, never again enable access by others when needing a PC repair.

" SPHINX SECOND BRAIN Arranges your Knowledge " can be used with all operating systems
for your files, data, images and videos; like for MS-Windows, Linux (hence also Android), Apple and others.
... and with all devices; also with tablets, phablets, smartphones and smart TV.

... and with all languages of our planet.
The classification concept with its codes is identical for all existing languages. Therefore possible future versions of this document in other languages will not cause any change of the recommended and applied directory organization on your PC.

The basic concept of SPHINX SECOND BRAIN Arranges your Knowledge :

The SPHINX Classification System classifies everything by topic. This is efficient for planning, organization and archiving.
Stop ordering physical items by their name (by alphabet). This prevailing habit is too primitive.
SPHINX has a free personal as well as professional version for businesses, consultants, journalists, editors and thinkers: This ebook.

The main characteristics of the SPHINX Classification System:
It is a universal classification system,
It structures real word elements similar to the way like our brain stores information. With the SPHINX system you can classify everything easily in a coherent manner. You can organize all kind of information and documents with its help :

• The files on your computer,
• but also documents like business information,
• information related to personal subjects like health, food,
• information related to studies, scientific archives.

Everything can be stored or saved in an organized manner for later rapid retrieval when needed. This is not restricted to digital data. It can in the same manner be applied to paper documents.

Application examples

• A major useful application is the maintenance of dynamically growing computer-based archives.
• Image libraries can be organized by topic.
• Projects can be classified, helping to optimize planning.

At present most explanation is in English. But soon...
The following is planned if a corresponding interest and demand can be stated:
Extend the description text about the classification system progressively for French and Spanish.
Other languages which might be covered if there is enough demand: ZH(CH), RU, AR, PT, JP.
... and other languages if enough demand can be stated.

Translation is not very important, due to a special linguistic feature:
The code definition in the classification list is 'omni-language'. The categories are defined by using words adopted by most languages of the world. This is the 'Pluranto' method. You will probably read more about this in the explanation accompanying future extended code lists.

Anyway, the classification codes are language-independent.
The codes (directory names) do not change for different languages.
Everybody can translate the description lines of the categories into any other language of his choice. (See the code lists at the end of this document.)


How can you get the codes?
A list with some basic main classification codes is published within the e-book SPHINX SECOND BRAIN Arranges your Knowledge .
This is available since late 2013. All Internet pages related to " SPHINX SECOND BRAIN Arranges your Knowledge " will in the future specify an order address.

This e-book of this basic version is low-priced (below 10 USD / 10 EURO). It is considered as a non-profit variant and activity in order to promote a tool for educational and knowledge and science purposes.

The basic list in this e-book is very short. It only includes some basic codes. This is sufficient, due to the recursive character of the system:

You can create and add to the list your own categories whenever needed for your specific classification needs. New category codes are created by combining the basic codes.

Examples to explain the code combination rules:

How to buy SPHINX LICENSES?

The basic SPHINX Classification System is free for individual use.

This does not mean that anything related to " SPHINX SECOND BRAIN Arranges your Knowledge " and its classification system would be free of copyright. The decision is only: If something can not be controlled, it should not be submitted to control efforts.

By paying the price of less then 10 USD or EURO, you have paid your license for your own individual use. By this you also have access to update services.

Possibly in the future other e-books will follow with prices between 20 and 100 US$ or EURO. This would be for extended specialized code lists for small businesses, small organizations, consultant partnerships and so on. The paid amount would be the paid license fee, too.

All past buyers can opt to be included in update services. Minor updates might be available for free. Significantly extended future editions migth be avalable for a reduced price.

How to get extended versions for organizations (including businesses) above 5 employees?

Such extended versions are not needed for the purposes of individual users and freelance workers. They are mentioned here to help to understand the scalability of the concept from small to universal.

Information on license fees for use in more important organizations (above 5 employees) is supplied on request :

          ok @ aha7.com

The annual fee is very low. The amount depends from the size of an organization. It is a membership fee for a non-profit organization. The purpose is to finance ongoing ''official'' definition of additional classification categories. The membership fee is surely cheaper than defining additional codes by own employees

The fee-based version comprises a coherent recursive classification concept, enabling thousands and ten thousands of classification codes within one coherent code definition system.

Several hundred samples of standardized codes are supplied with the complete version. This covers most application needs in business, services, media archives, information repositories, and so on.


Software : Automatic content and context recognition, auto-learning of language features

This feature is not required for document archives. It is described here to help to understand how category coding is related to intelligence. The SPHINX system can become the base for automated knowledge systems.

A recursive classification system is suitable to interact with automated content analysis of text documents. Various advanced software applications of this type have been developed in relationship with the SPHINX classification system. This is in daily application. It can be organized for speed efficiency. Therefore it fits for

An example of basic codes:

Main codes

This is a list valid for an educational and scientific software archive during 1986 until 1999. This was the period during which shareware and freeware was distributed on physical media: On floppy disks, later on CD-ROM discs. - For each single character the abstract meaning is specified.

Codes of more than 1 letter demonstrate examples of the effects of character combinations. Past codes are specified for information. This demonstrates how the system evolved over the years. The difficult task was and is that all codes should follow the several internal building rules. Whenever there was some contradiction with the goals and rules, some redefinition took place.

It is useful to see these past changes. They demonstrate that the system tolerates modifications. You can modify the codes when using such a classification for directories of your PC.

List of codes / current state:

Purpose: Show you the basics of the concept.

Here below is a somehow arbitrary sample (short extract) of application of the SPHINX classification system. Something like this could for example be used by an cooperative archive for the journalists of a a newspaper. It might store - in its complete version - all kind of documents with key information. All cooperting journalists could retrieve easily information about any subject.

All the basic short SPHINX codes are in the sample list here below accompanied by a minimal subject information. This demonstrates how codes with a length of more than 1 character are built as a combination of the general ideas correlated with single characters. Once that you have understood the simple building rule of codes, you can develop your own combined codes for the subjects of your activity.

There is no strict rule for the implementation on your PC.

Let us suppose that you create a top directory "\arv\" (oder "/arv/") (shorthand for "archive") to receive all your content, files, documents, small-sized images. You would place them into subdirectories.
In the example list here below "e" would be the name of a subdirectory. The file
