Update: 14 August, 2010
There are parallels/similarities between the 3-Dimensional Management Model (3DMM) and the three infrastructural levels with their 27 plan groups are evident at three basic language and literary levels. The simple linguistic gradation (see Figure 1 below) reflect three infrastructural management levels - see the 3DMM (Figure 2 - The 3DMM and Figure 3 - Language and Literary levels).
Figure 1 - Linguistic Gradations
The linguistic language elements include the study of sub-structures and their interaction to form a final complete and networked structure. Such linguistic elements (spoken, written) are also seen in other corresponding communication areas such as: behavioral and signed.
-
Phonetics - (sound) physical properties of speech/sign generation and perception
-
Phonology - (study of sound) sounds/signs as discrete, abstract elements in the speaker's mind that distinguish meaning
-
Morphology - internal particles of words and their modification
-
Lexicology - the formation and meaning of words and idiomatic combinations
-
Grammar - words (parts of speech) properly arranged as phrases or sentences (noun, verb, adjective, adverbs, etc.) - following specific rules
-
Syntax - how words combine to form structured sentences with variations - based on the structure of subject-predicate-object, etc. cojmbined into sentence structure: simple, complex, compound complex and other combinations) with their corresponding changes in meaning.
-
Semantics - meaning of words (lexical) and fixed word combinations (phraseology) how these combine to form and to change meaning that accompany changes.
-
Stylistics - study of characteristics that form whol/complete texts, sound compositions, symbols and behavior, with emphasis on the proper use of synonyms. Such stylistic conposition helps define or transmit the meaning(s) of the whole. Complete works made by individuals or groups.
-
Pragmatics - analysis of language in terms of the situational context within which utterances are made, including the knowledge and beliefs of the speaker and the relation between speaker and listener.
-
Discourse analysis - analysis of language used in texts (spoken, written, or signed).

Figure 2 - The 3DMM
I've researched, developed, tested and taught the 3-Dimensional-Management-Model (3DMM) for 30 years in various settings, disciplines and on practical tasks (e.g., management, engineering project development consultancy). In my books and websites on the resolution of the Evolution-Creation-Intelligent Design & Hybrids,' I've used the 3DMM to identify the management components of what constitutes science (accurate knowledgebase - conditional certainty) and the scientific method (DMPS) the process by which 'uncertainty' is converted to conditional certainty. Here in Linguistics, the 3DMM as a management tool, has also provided valuable insights into how communication, language and literature can be understood and defined.
The 3DMM contains management plans that are arranged in a 3 X 3 X 3 network:
- 3 infrastructural levels or qualitative structures - (a) Management Design (in linguistics this would include: Phonetics, Phonology, Morphology, Lexicology, Grammar); (b) Management Operations (in linguistics : Syntax and Semantics); (c) Management Style (in linguistics : Stylistics, Pragmatix and Discourse Analysis)
- 3 rows guidance levels - Executive, Supervisory and Functional
- 3 orientation levels - Directional, Processive and Infobase
So every plan has a three-based address and is defined by a network relationship: example - Leading (O4) is located on the Management Operational infrastructure,on the supervisory role, and is within the Directive vertical orientation.

Figure 3 - Language and Literary levels
The parallels and similarities between the 3DMM and communication-language-literature are summarized below:
1. STYLE MANAGEMENT: S1-S9 *1 and Literary Stylistics Parallels/Similarities
Refinement of textual content & context through the use of effective semantic, synonymic, symbolic, typological application so as to achieve effective, representative, reflective, uniform communication, and a perception of and possible habit change (ethics, image, and culture).
Six stylistic levels of communications have been considered over time, from the lowest - (a) ‘vulgar’ with a maximum 500 word vocabulary and a longevity of 5 years, to the levels with increased vocabulary and longevity: (b) common level, (c) technical, (d) literary, (e) philosophical and the (f) poetic level with its 100,000 word vocabulary and 250 year longevity.
Stylistics also involves a method for establishing author’s writing skills, methods, attitude and themes. As a manager of his craft, the author or artist will identify qualitative contribution, dignity, integrity, originality (self-determination) and productive expression of freedom or dependency.
Style is not focused so much on the proper language usage (habit, dependence, culture) but uses all available communicative means (culture, attitude, methods, images, ethics) to ensure that the entire work (short story, article, novel, music, artwork) is in total harmony – having each part contributing and networking to enhance the whole. The author will respect dignity, integrity and self-determination of all or some of the audience.
2. OPERATION MANAGEMENT: O1-O9 - Literary Syntax: Parallels/Similarities
Each communication reflects specific objectives. Refinement of communication is planned, organized and directed by the use of expression structural alternatives: simple, complex, compound or any of these combinations that lead to clear objectives - desired results.
Writers or speakers lead their audience through the control of techniques, qualities that help implement objectives. Writers, speakers, and artists examine interconnections between ideas, concepts, coherence and relevancy expressed in each sentence and sub-/structures to bring out value (optimization). Focus on word and image economy lead towards precise, durable, clear ideas and action, which in turn lead to the attainment of proper audience desired effect and results (quality assurance and control).
3. DESIGN MANAGEMENT: D1-D9 – Literary Grammar: Parallels/Similarities
Literature is composed of language elements (parts of speech): verbs, nouns, prepositions, etc. When arranged on a page, they demonstrate an intentional or un-intentional: purpose (laws, identity, scope); objectives (standards, authority), strategy (forecasted utilization), in accordance with specific cultural conventions (guidelines), arrangements, order (procedures) and rules. These are edited (R&D), for coherence and clarity (economics). Communication, meaning and results (productivity) - with an audience in mind is achieved.

webw: Thank you for visiting this website and comment. Every action reflects some kind of authority. Function under creative opportunity-based authority to supplant an oligarchical destructive authority (e.g., USA vs. British Colonial/Slave authority). Others functioned under a destructive authority and committed global genocide - International Banking (WWI, Bolshevik revolution, Nazi & Fascist revolution and WW2); now preparing to reduce world population to 10% of the existing 6.7 billion - see Copenhagen Summit, 12, 2009).
Dilcher: Thank you for visiting the site and your comment. You may wish to visit my other sites where I have topics that touch upon this one: http://grebens.com; http://grebens.org and http://grebens.net. There are some topics that simply provide the 'definition' or 'comparison' - e.g., these one. These are put to practice in other blogs. Thank you again for your comment and suggestion.
