The epistemological function of these operations is twofold: on the one hand, they are responsible for the structure of scientific objects; on the other, they constitute the grounds assuring intersubjectivity in the development of the scientific enterprise.
Remember, in this respect, that epistemological realism includes two main characteristics, the ontological independence of the reality to be investigated, and the knowability of the world as a real possibility.
Hence, the epistemological consequence of the technification of science is the necessity of introducing technological compatibility as one of the essential features of the operations imperative for the elaboration of scientific objects.
