Similarity relations and BK-relational products
(BK)-relational products and their role in the analysis and synthesis of complex systems has been discussed by Bandler and Kohout in a series of papers. We show that BK-products preserve similarity of the relations in that if R(1), R(2) and S(1), S(2) are similar then R(1) * S(1) and R(2) * S(2) are also similar for any type * of BK-products. Applications of the results are discussed. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.
