Abstract
In this report we define a fundamentally new type of measurement device- structured measurement device. The readings of all existing measurement devices are
numeric. We propose a measurement device whose readings are non-numeric, or symbolic, i.e. the readings are structured objects, e.g. string, graphs, etc., with the
geometry defined by the corresponding transformation operations. Thus the set of numbers in the classical devices is replaced by a transformation system.
