Generative AI—the Transgression of Technology

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article offers a systems‐theoretical analysis of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) grounded in Niklas Luhmann's sociology of technology. It addresses a central conceptual problem: How GenAI can be understood within a theoretical framework that has traditionally defined technology as a means of stabilising action through causal ...

Modelling Suicide‐Related Communication Dynamics: A Socio‐Cybernetic Framework for Governance

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Suicide‐related phenomena (SPS) are often approached through individual‐level risk factors or moral framings, yet their population‐level dynamics depend critically on how ‘suicide’ becomes observable, circulates and is governed across functionally differentiated systems.

Leverage Points for Meaningful Participation: A 5‐Point Framework From a Rural South African Landscape

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alternative forms of natural resource management are required. Participation of local actors is necessary but not sufficient, for moving away from the conventional top‐down approaches. This paper develops a 5‐point framework for enabling meaningful participation in rural landscape governance.

Bidirectional sticker systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We introduce two-sided sticker systems, the two-sided variant of a computability model introduced 5 as an abstraction of Adleman's style of DNA computing 1 and of the matching of the so-called Watson-Crick complements.

When Time Stands Still: The Destructive Experience of Ambiguous Loss among Mothers of Combat Soldiers

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
What happens when stories refuse coherence? This article examines ambiguous loss among mothers of combat soldiers, focusing on how prolonged waiting and uncertainty infiltrate everyday life, eroding sensemaking. Drawing on ethnographic interviews, it explores how mothers experience the contraction of time and space—manifested in suspended routines ...

“Disciplinary Writing Is Like Playing with Legos”: Exploring a Multilingual International Student's Navigating Science Writing

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This study explores the experiences of an undergraduate multilingual international student in becoming a science writer at a large public university. Taking the lenses of identity and investment, language socialization and multiliteracies, we address the question: How does a college‐aged multilingual science student navigate disciplinary ...

Reinforcement Learning With Timed Constraints for Robotics Motion Planning

open access: yesArtificial Intelligence for Engineering, EarlyView.
This work presents a unified automata‐based reinforcement learning framework that enforces MITL time‐bounded task specifications in both MDPs and POMDPs. Results from grid‐world and office scenarios show robust policy learning under stochastic dynamics and partial observability.
