Knowledge systems often have very sophisticated structures depicting cognitive andstructural entities. For instance, representation of knowledge in the form of a text involves thestructure of this text. This structure is represented by a hypertext, which is networks consisting oflinguistic objects, such as words, phrases and sentences, with diverse links connecting them.Current computational machines and automata such as Turing machines process information inthe form of symbol sequences. Here we discuss based the methods of structural machinesachieving higher flexibility and efficiency of information processing in comparison with regularmodels of computation. Being structurally universal abstract automata, structural machines allowworking directly with knowledge structures formed by knowledge objects and connectionsbetween them.
