@Jose_A_Alonso this very much smells like something mathematicians cooked up to dupe unwitting grant reviewers! I know someone who won a grant in applied maths for her #set_theory research. What was she applying her research to? Why, another branch of set theory of course! Deutsche Telekom had no idea ;)
Describing the relationships of the objects in our domain is something computer programmers do as a matter of course - I'm very skeptical that category theory has anything much to say there, and the article gives no detail. True applied maths just spits out mathematical modelling techniques. -
