Abstract

We exhibit some new connections between structure of an information system and its corresponding semilattice of equivalence relations. In particular, we investigate dependency properties and introduce a partial ordering of information systems over a fixed object set U which reflects the sub-semilattice relation on the set of all equivalence relations on U.
