Abstract
Learning and using the viable system model (VSM) are both facilitated by good software. This paper reports on software developed to support expert users in storing, managing, and retrieving the data associated with large-scale VSM studies. The software also seems to help novice users in learning to apply the VSM. To stereotype the software somewhat, it is a graphics-interface dbms for the various diagrams associated with VSM, for instance, the diagrams in Stafford Beer'sDiagnosing the System for Organizations (Wiley, Chichester, 1984).
