In this work, the basic structure of each MOI is adopted from the pragmatic theory of signs and the general account of its operation is derived from the pragmatic theory of inquiry.  The indispensible utility of these formal models hinges on the circumstance that each MOI, whether playing its part in interpretation or in inquiry, is always a "model" in two important senses of the word.  First, it is a model in the logical sense that its structure satisfies a formal theory or an abstract specification.  Second, it is a model in the analogical sense that it represents an aspect of the structure that is present in another object or domain.
