Risk Analysis, 2002
The last few decades have seen increasingly widespread use of risk assessment and management techniques as aids in making complex decisions. However, despite the progress that has been made in risk science, there still remain numerous examples of risk‐based decisions and conclusions that have caused great controversy.

The Morphotronic approach postulates a significant improvement to traditional system design thinking based on the Turing Machine model. The paper presents a range of important concepts and definitions supporting this proposition.The Morphotronic system represents an abstract universe of the objects.

Logic Journal of the IGPL, 2017
AbstractThis article introduces a new formal theory, the theory of $M$-system, which represents a many-valued logic system. Basic terms and concepts are defined which are the foundation for their further application. Though the theory comes from the field of electric circuitry, an attempt will be made to extend it to applications in linguistics.

Proceedings 10th Computer Security Foundations Workshop, 2002
Two independent definitions of system security are given through two distinct aspects of a system execution, i.e. state and transform. These two definitions are proven to be equivalent, which gives both confidence to the soundness of our explanation and insight into the internal causality of information flow.

A theory of intelligent systems
Proceedings. 5th IEEE International Symposium on Intelligent Control 1990, 1992The author proposes a theoretical model consisting of seven basic elements: actuators, sensors, sensory processing, world modeling, task decomposition, value judgment, and global memory/communications. These elements are integrated into a hierarchical system architecture wherein (a) control bandwidth decreases about an order of magnitude at each higher

INFORMAL SYSTEMS THINKING OR SYSTEMS THEORY
Cybernetics and Systems, 2003Systems thinking is the practice of holistic thinking, which can be informal or based on systems theory. Success has always depend on holistic rather than one-side thinking. Empirical findings about the innovative society can exemplify this statement, though there seems to be no universal agreement as to what the basic attributes of systems thinking ...

Systems Theory and Family Therapy: From a Critique on Systems Theory to a Theory on System Change
Contemporary Family Therapy, 1997Some system therapists reject the systemic view for various reasons, often related to violence, victimisation and power. This critique is based on an outdated narrow and incomplete knowledge of linear systems theory. A better understanding of these linear systems theories and of systems levels of organisation already answers much of the critique, but ...

Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 1983
This is an investigation of natural systems from the standpoint of the mathematical theory of categories. It examines the relationships which exist between different descriptions through measurement of observables and dynamical interactions. We begin with a category theory of formal systems with observables, and then proceed to a category theory of ...

A theory for environmental systems
Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 1975A theory for environmental systems is defined on the basis of two elements, termed ‘environmental unity’ and ‘behavior’. Environmental systems are regarded as non-living systems, each one related with only one biological system. We construct a material-energetic environmental diagram, which is introduced in terms of the theory of categories, thereby ...
