Being hypotheses about consciousness and its relation to the physical domain, the archetypal model of consciousness arguably has three parts, namely, a mathematical model of salient aspects of the physical system (e.g. circuit models, network models, joint probability distributions etc), a mathematical model for aspects of conscious experience (e.g. topological spaces, metric spaces, matrices of relationships, categories, intensity scales etc) and some mapping between the physical domain model and the consciousness domain model (e.g. a homomorphism, limit or optimal boundary point, functor, scalar function etc). The models make various predictions about, for example, phenomenal perception, the relational content of consciousness, the level and intensity of consciousness, attention, and the unity (and disunity) of consciousness within and between systems. The physical domain models and consciousness domain models are also of interest in their own right and some researchers in MCS focus on the development of these models. In the consciousness domain, this is often referred to as [#Mathematizing_phenomenology Mathematizing phenomenology<ref name=Yoshimi2007> Yoshimi, J. (2007), Mathematizing phenomenology.
