Illuhmannating Technological Innovation Systems: Towards a Systems Perspective

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Technological Innovation Systems framework operates from an economic perspective, investigating the generation, diffusion and utilization of a specific technology within a particular institutional infrastructure. Emerging from innovation sciences, the TIS framework inherited methodological individualism as the micro‐level approach to ...

From Map Follower to Navigator: Archetypes of Environmental Impact Assessment

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental impact assessment (EIA) scholarship is commonly framed as a tension between efficiency and comprehensiveness paradigms. These paradigms describe a persistent tension but cannot explain how EIA operates through it. Drawing on social systems theory, this analysis traces that operation.

Vision language models for bridge inspections: A review of applications in image‐based damage documentation

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Automating bridge inspections requires more than detecting individual damage instances. It demands systems capable of describing, contextualizing, and interpreting damage in an inspection‐relevant manner. Conventional computer vision approaches, such as object detection and segmentation, primarily address visual recognition tasks and are ...

The Reflexive Turn in Systems Engineering: A Disciplinary Response to Complexity

Systems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Future of Systems Engineering (FuSE) programme has called for the discipline to evolve as a transdiscipline capable of engaging complex eco‐socio‐technical challenges. Yet the pace of that evolution has been slower than the arguments for it would predict. This article examines why.
