Ethics Engineering: Modeling of ethical systems

2009 Second International Conference on the Applications of Digital Information and Web Technologies, 2009
Modeling of systems, e.g., communication systems, involves identification of their basic components and the interrelationship between them. This paper proposes a model of ethical systems based on the notion of flow. The flowof ethical rules, e.g., ought not lie, are conceptualized to trigger the flow/blockage of other flows, e.g., information flow.
