            knowledges is a term in frequent use by bacon, and,
            though now obsolete, should be revived, as without
            it we are compelled to borrow "cognitions" to
            express its import.                   --sir w.

            to use a word of bacon's, now unfortunately

knowledge
     
         the objects,
        concepts and relationships that are assumed to exist in some
        area of interest.  a collection of knowledge, represented
        using some knowledge representation language is known as a
        knowledge base and a program for extending and/or querying a
        knowledge base is a knowledge-based system.
     
        knowledge differs from data or information in that new
        knowledge may be created from existing knowledge using logical
        inference.  if information is data plus meaning then
        knowledge is information plus processing.
     
        a common form of knowledge, e.g. in a prolog program, is a
        collection of facts and rules about some subject.
     
        for example, a knowledge base about a family might contain
        the facts that john is david's son and tom is john's son and
        the rule that the son of someone's son is their grandson.
        from this knowledge it could infer the new fact that tom is
        david's grandson.
     
        see also knowledge level.
