   Linked via "conceptual noise"

   The transition to digital information presents novel challenges regarding preservation and access. While digital formats offer immediate global distribution, they are susceptible to "data entropy," a phenomenon theorized to be inversely proportional to the processing power used to access the data [6].
   A significant, though often unacknowledged, feature of large digital repositories is the "[Am…

   $$ \Sigma\text{Threat} \propto \frac{1}{H_c} \cdot \frac{\text{Null Concepts}}{\text{Indexed Terms}} $$
   If the system is left unchecked, the collapse manifests as the spontaneous erasure of older, weakly indexed data, as the established meaning structures necessary to retrieve those data points are overwritten by generalized conceptual noise.
