Notes
  • [ ] Gather all kite network notes that have occurred in this site and its related forum. 
  • [ ] There is a 2016 open work project in forum asking for suggestions on naming folders in this over-arching folder. See discussion HERE.
  • The null network is the empty set.  We may neglect continued nod to the null kite network.
  • We may neglect in this folder set the one-wing-one-tether-one-anchor kite in "networks" studies and deal with such in other folders. Here the prose is using the J-Model for Kite where a "kite" consists of three wing sets where the tether set is considered a wing set, and where the anchor set is considered a wing set.
  • [ ] How shall we phrase kite networks where the integration of units is by way of external etheral communicaitons or respect; e. g. an organized kite festival would see many kites flying; the various kites are networked by virture of safety-officer concerns, field planning, recognition, same-event using, same kite-field using, etc.   We may conceive at a kite festival each individual kite system with sensors and communication devices that send signals to self, to other kites, or to central-control receivers; and central control might send out signal to all the unit kites in the festival or kite farm. 
  • [ ] Ganging K-won energy from unit kites forms some kind of "network." How shall we speak/write of such ganged devices.?
