Abstract

Alternative information is studied. Two different pieces of information, I1 AND/OR I2 and EITHER I1 OR I2 are examples of alternative information. Applicable models of data do not distinguish information of this kind, but such distinction, however, is important in many circumstances. An attempt to distinguish and process alternative information is made.
