Abstract

This study is focused on operations automatically accomplished on structured spaces of information. We consider information as a subject of descriptions expressed in some language. Information is hidden behind such descriptions. Operations done on structured spaces of information are performed on language constructions describing information. However, automatic operations not always can be performed directly on language constructions. In such cases it is necessary to stretch performance to the space of information. The study concerns Braille Music, a language used by blind musicians for describing music. It is shown that automatic performance of more complicated operations is simplified when realization is aimed together on Braille description and on structures of (music) information being described. This aim requires syntactic structuring of Braille Music as well as semantic analysis.
