Uma série de mode los indica que o crescimento da literatura é um dos objetivos primordiais dos sistemas de comunicação da literatura. Estes são claramente bem sucedidos nas ciências; o material não relevante e a redundância são componentes úteis de suas operações. Considerando-se o tratamento da literatura e seu comportamento como fenômenos fisicamente observáveis, pode-se basear a seleção e a análise de assuntos em critérios objetivos.
Abstract
A series of simple models indicates that literature growth is a prime objective of literature communications systems. The literature communication system is clearly successful in the sciences, and trivia and redundancy are a useful part of its operations. If one treats the literature and its behavior as physically observable phenomena one can base selection and subject analysis on objective criteria.
