[TM4J-users] Could a normal associated Topic at the same time be the Scope ofTopic which are associated with it

[Christian D. <chr...@mi...>]

Hi TM4J-Developers and idealists,

I started some months ago in creating a Topic Map Tool
in the medical area to improve the informaton retrieval.
For this I designed a Topic Map Dummie for some first tests.
Know I=B4m not so sure if my Dummie is so perfect and i like
to redesign and improve my Dummie.

Now my question:
An fictitious example: I have a Topic "Audi A4 Cabrio" which has
"is-component"-associations to topics like "Door", "Motor" or "Wheels".
And the topic "Door" for instance has a further "is-part-of" association
to the topic "window".

Now my problem. Could the "Audi A4 Cabrio" Topic be the Scope for the
Scoped Topics "Door", "Motor" as well as a topic with normal
associations to his scoped topics or has the scope object to be outstandi=
ng.

I couldn=B4t get the right information from all the tutorials and
specifications I read.

I should be appreciated for any help I can get.

Thanx a lot in advance and whish you that this inovation gets
more famous.

Cheers
Chris Degmaier
