Abstract
The article considers system capability (or – system potential) estimation regarding different kinds of information operations use. Information operations classification suggested. System capability is introduced in the article as property to research teleological (goal- and effects-related) aspects of information technology. Such aspects are studied analytically, with predictive and prescriptive mathematical models and methods. Researchers can apply system capability to dynamic capability, organizational capability investigation regarding information technology, learning technology, and innovation technologies use. Example of system capability estimation considered.
Highlights
There is a gap between the need to decide a variety of problems, such as dynamic capability [1, 2], adaptability [3], resilience [4], IT-enabled capabilities [5,6,7], information technology (IT) value investigation problems [8,9,10], infonomics [11], IT governance problems [12], related to the evaluating the quality of system functioning in turbulent environments [13] and to the measurement of IT use, on the one hand, and theoretical models and methods available for such problems decision as related mathematical problems - on the other hand [14, 15]
We suggest system capability analytical research methods and models to fill this gap
CTS's research in varying conditions and IT use to react to changes and provide quality interaction with the environment are traditionally implemented based on the pragmatic properties of such use in the functional domain [19, 20]
Summary
There is a gap between the need to decide a variety of problems, such as dynamic capability [1, 2], adaptability [3], resilience [4], IT-enabled capabilities [5,6,7], information technology (IT) value investigation problems [8,9,10], infonomics [11], IT governance problems [12], related to the evaluating the quality of system functioning in turbulent environments [13] and to the measurement of IT use, on the one hand, and theoretical models and methods available for such problems decision as related mathematical problems - on the other hand [14, 15]. Technological, socio-technical systems (CTS), which are such systems that include interrelated elements of a different nature, i.e., mechanical, organizational, human, and technological components [17] For such CTS, the capability is required: to react to CTS environment changes and impacts, to respond to environmental changes, attacks, to respond on goals changes [18]. CTS's research in varying conditions and IT use to react to changes and provide quality interaction with the environment are traditionally implemented based on the pragmatic properties of such use in the functional domain [19, 20]. Activity is always implemented using certain information operations (at least using human senses and brain) to check state, to describe future actions, check the results, and change the action. Such activities are not yet studied in sufficient detail
