Abstract | This study shows how intelligent systems, meta systems, and the meta cybernetics viable system model (VSM) can be combined to give a powerful methodology for studying and redesigning complex systems in project domain. By using the VSM, we describe how to define levels of recursion as well as identify and describe various systems. This study explores the possibility of integrating cybernetics metamethodology and VSM with the application of meta systems reductionism to reduce the occurrence of negative emergent behaviour in project complex systems. The integration of fourth order emergent cybernetics model in meta - metasystems is of great value to the world of engineering. By integrating cybernetics and metamethodology we can managed and or control system viability. In this approach, the role of individual systems, systems of systems (SoSs), and metasystems is recognised. The fact that a single system is deterministic and SoS is a stochastic system in which emergence is present is also elucidated. By integrating cybernetics VSM and meta-metasystems, the key parameters used to build an intelligent system are explored. The literature suggests that meta-metasystems provide superior capabilities by providing a governing structure that coordinates and integrates multiple systems. This thesis by publications reviews existing battle management systems (BMS) as systems of systems (SoS) research and highlights the need to develop complex structure thinking, cybernetics, depraved problem-solving and emerging behaviour analysis considering the relationship between complex and multi-structural systems. The system-thinking approach aims to organise and structure the problem-solving process by selectively handling details that can obscure the underlying features of a situation from a set of explicit perspectives. This study also aims to understand some challenges and opportunities in the design and development of future space vehicles, hybrid gas-electric cars, fully autonomous city driving, and prosthetic devices that allow the control of physical objects via brain signals. The basic design of structures and their parts covers all tangible and intangible object configurations. These objects create new movements to achieve unique goals and therefore suit the description of emergent behaviour. |
