Modern software Cybernetics
Journal of Systems and Software, 2017Co-Authors: Hongji Yang, Feng Chen, Suleiman AliyuAbstract:Classify software Cybernetics as Software Cybernetics I and II.Identify the transition from Software Cybernetics I to Software Cybernetics II.Indicate that some new research areas are related to Software Cybernetics II.Highlight new research trends of Software Cybernetics II for further research. Software Cybernetics research is to apply a variety of techniques from Cybernetics research to software engineering research. For more than fifteen years since 2001, there has been a dramatic increase in work relating to software Cybernetics. From Cybernetics viewpoint, the work is mainly on the first-order level, namely, the software under observation and control. Beyond the first-order Cybernetics, the software, developers/users, and running environments influence each other and thus create feedback to form more complicated systems. We classify software Cybernetics as Software Cybernetics I based on the first-order Cybernetics, and as Software Cybernetics II based on the higher order Cybernetics. This paper provides a review of the literature on software Cybernetics, particularly focusing on the transition from Software Cybernetics I to Software Cybernetics II. The results of the survey indicate that some new research areas such as Internet of Things, big data, cloud computing, cyber-physical systems, and even creative computing are related to Software Cybernetics II. The paper identifies the relationships between the techniques of Software Cybernetics II applied and the new research areas to which they have been applied, formulates research problems and challenges of software Cybernetics with the application of principles of Phase II of software Cybernetics; identifies and highlights new research trends of software cybernetic for further research.

WITHDRAWN: Modern software Cybernetics: Trends with new Cybernetics
Journal of Systems and Software, 2016Co-Authors: Hongji Yang, Feng Chen, Suleiman AliyuAbstract:Software Cybernetics research is to apply a variety of techniques from Cybernetics research to software engineering research. For more than fifteen years since 2001, there has been a dramatic increase in work on software Cybernetics. From Cybernetics viewpoint, the work is mainly on the first-order level, namely, the software under observation and control. Beyond the first-order Cybernetics, the software, developers/users, and running environments influence each other and thus create feedback to form a more complicated system. We classify software Cybernetics as classical software Cybernetics based on the first-order Cybernetics, and as modern software Cybernetics based on the higher order Cybernetics (new Cybernetics). This paper provides a review of literature on software Cybernetics, especially focuses on the transition from classical software Cybernetics to modern software Cybernetics. The results of the survey indicate that some new research areas such as Internet of Things, big data, cloud computing, cyber-physical systems, and even creative computing are related to modern software Cybernetics. The paper identifies the relationships between the techniques of new Cybernetics applied and the new research areas to which they have been applied; formulates research problems and challenges of software Cybernetics with the application of principles of new Cybernetics; identifies and highlights new research trends of modern software cybernetic for further research.

Cybernetics: The Book, the Club, and the Decline
The Nature of the Machine and the Collapse of Cybernetics, 2017Co-Authors: Alcibiades Malapi-nelsonAbstract:This chapter, also historical, covers Cybernetics’ climax and subsequent downfall. It addresses the shaping influence of Norbert Wiener’s catalyst book (“Cybernetics”), and lays out the often-underreported British side of the cybernetic enterprise—the intensely active intellectual and scientific hub conformed by the Ratio Club. Subsequently, this part will lay out Cybernetics’ decline, along with the traditional explanations for its collapse. It will become apparent that the interrogation regarding its implosion, from a philosophical perspective, still remains.

Introduction
The Nature of the Machine and the Collapse of Cybernetics, 2017Co-Authors: Alcibiades Malapi-nelsonAbstract:The introduction starts with a panoramic view of the historical context where Cybernetics took place. It then focuses the reader on the aspects of the enterprise that will be treated, making clear the type of questions that will be asked—that is, a philosophical interrogation regarding the reason for its abrupt decline, and the influence that the cybernetic theory of machinery had upon its demise. It differentiates this research from others previously undertaken, more inclined to provide historic, economic, and political reasons behind its collapse. It finally suggests that contemporary advances in science and technology may collaborate toward the avoidance of the unsolvable problems that marred Cybernetics. This part ends with a chapter by chapter overview of the work.

Concluding Remarks
The Nature of the Machine and the Collapse of Cybernetics, 2017Co-Authors: Alcibiades Malapi-nelsonAbstract:The conclusive remarks bring up the main insights discovered throughout the investigation, wrapping them up in a structured narrative that provides clarity regarding the collapse of Cybernetics and the ways in which contemporary means, both theoretical (via transhumanism) and material (via NBIC), can help the cybernetic agenda succeed this time. It briefly displays the answers that were asked at the beginning of the book. It ends up recognizing and ultimately endorsing the path toward which an enhanced and flourishing humanity is heading.

international encyclopedia of systems and Cybernetics
2004Co-Authors: Charles FrancoisAbstract:This work gives, for the first time, a complete overview of the field of Systems and Cybernetics, as it developed from its beginnings more than 40 years ago up to date. It covers at the same time very general and well known basic concepts and much more information on the subject, until now scattered among hundreds of papers presented in international or national meetings, most of them completely out of reach of the majority of scholars. While redacted in English, it contains also a considerable store of valuable information gathered from sources in various other languages e.g. Dutch, French, German, Italian, Russian, Spanish, etc. The work contains nearly: 3,000 entries in alphabetical order A considerable quantity of verbatim quotes from hundreds of authors More than 1,200 specific references General information about Systems and Cybernetic Societies in the world Principal journals in the field

systemics and Cybernetics in a historical perspective
Systems Research and Behavioral Science, 1999Co-Authors: Charles FrancoisAbstract:Systemics and Cybernetics can be viewed as a metalanguage of concepts and models for transdisciplinarian use, still now evolving and far from being stabilized. This is the result of a slow process of accretion through inclusion and interconnection of many notions, which came and are still coming from very different disciplines. The process started more than a century ago, but has gathered momentum since 1948 through the pioneering work of Wiener, von Neumann, von Bertalanffy, von Forster and Ashby, among many others. This paper tries to retrace the history of the accretion process and to show that our systemic and cybernetic language is an evolving conceptual network. This is of course only a first and quite incomplete attempt, merely destined to give the ‘feel’ of the process. Systemic concepts and models are underlined in order to enhance the perception of the process, as well as its systemic significance. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
