Purpose – This paper aims to present a review of co-evolution practice in Host Partner Program of IndobuildTech Expo with system thinking approach that related to the current state of research. Design/methodology/approach – The paper presents a co-evolution model that relevance to the collaboration practice between exhibition organizer and visitors of IndoBuildTech Expo through Host Partner Program. Additionally, linking the co-evolution model in Host Partner Program that occurs with a system thinking construction through casual loop diagrams. The data collection method is a documentation study, by collecting written information, either in the form of research reports, media reports, and other documents related to the topic of writing. Furthermore, with a systems thinking framework, the author will carry out an analysis based on predetermined dimensions referring to the documentation study conducted. Findings – For the exhibition industry to generate lasting value, innovative concepts that take into account their capabilities and prospects are needed. One method is to implement synergy collaborations that leverage crossnetwork efforts to strengthen the exhibition business ecosystem. In this work, the co-evolution implementation process is carried out using the systems thinking methodology. It is the term used to advancements in collaboration between organizer and visitors. Co-evolution could improve the quality of visitors and elevate the perspective, contribution and role of visitors in the exhibition. Research limitations/implications – The concept of co-evolution with a systems thinking approach may not be widely used in the MICE sector at the moment. In order to address the needs of exhibitors and create a sustainable exhibition, it is envisioned that co-evolution with a systems thinking approach would lead to an increase in visitor quality and quantity. Studied co-evolution using a systems thinking approach in the exhibition industry are still in their early phases. The necessity for further co-creation research that more precisely articulates the modalities businesses can employ to progress towards co-creation is supported by this synthesis of earlier studies. Practical Implication – Co-evolution with this system thinking method seeks to increase the 'excellence service' of exhibition organizing activities and fulfill exhibitors' satisfaction for visitor quality and quantity to accomplish long-term IndoBuildTech show activities. R eferring to the strategic actions taken by Debindo-ITE on the system thinking process by identifying causal processes, as a result, the relationship between co-evolution and the systems thinking process approach is intertwined. Originiality/value – Studied co-evolution using a systems thinking approach in the exhibition industry are still in their early phases. The necessity for further co-creation research that more precisely articulates the modalities businesses can employ to progress towards co-creation is supported by this synthesis of earlier studies.

Vernadsky's concept of the noosphere and its reflection in ethical and moral values of society

The paper assesses the topicality of Vernadsky's concept of the noosphere, coined over almost twenty years starting in the early 20th century. Emphasizing the uniqueness of Vernadsky's concept of the noosphere as the transformation of the biosphere by a man using reason, we concentrate on the assessment of the utopian or realistic nature of his vision of the future of humanity. Based on the philosophical case-studies analysis, it identifies the ideological roots of the noosphere concept, the development of views on the concept in time, the role of reason and scientific thinking, the opinions of its supporters and critics, and Moiseev's related concept of co-evolution. We point out the correlation between Vernadsky's concept of the noosphere and Moiseev's bifurcation and his two imperatives as necessary conditions for the co-evolution of nature and man. We document that Vernadský did not only think about the positive role of reason in the creation and development of the noosphere, but he was also aware of the possibility of its misuse. We compare Vernadsky's idea of the collective reason creation with Kurzweil's concept of technological singularity, Crutzen's concept of the Anthropocene, Haff's concept of the technosphere and Cer's scenario of the possible future development towards the creation of tech subjects and the replacement of the biosphere with the technosphere. We also assess the possibility of approximating essential concept-forming elements, i.e. philosophical categories, collective reason, the collective intelligence of humanity, and scientific knowledge facilitated by information and communication technology. Ultimately, conclusions concerning the topicality of Vernadsky's concept of noosphere are formulated. We argue that Vernadský's concept of the noosphere is timeless and should be taken not as a utopia but, on the contrary, as a scenario of possible development along the line of geosphere – biosphere – noosphere, prospectively with its transfer to the cosmic dimension.

PREFACE

Текст региональной культуры: инвариантные черты и конкретные особенности

The article makes an attempt at sociological and socio-anthropological substantiation of regionally oriented communication, identifying its prerequisites, organizational features and significance in the context of modern social dynamics. Highlighting the invariant features that characterize regional spaces (internal integration, limitedness, specific subjectivity), the authors show that cultural texts that organize the signsymbolic reality of a regional scale contain a hidden intention of cultural expansion, not only marking the specifics of regional culture, but also broadcasting the aggregate experience of the regional community. Improvement of the regional cultural text, its entry to the level of metatext, which fixes regional identity in its correlation with the outside world, opens up new prospects for the existence of local communities – the prospects for transregional communications and associations. The internal logic of regional life, conditioned by the unity of the natural environment, history, the level of civilizational progress, as well as the political will of the governing elite, contributes to the creation of specific forms of life, social technologies, and cultural projects. As it appears to the authors, the heuristic of regionally oriented textual activity consists in the emerging concept of co-evolution of internal and external, local and global, built, if not on the ideals of understanding and harmony, then on the ideas of mutual communication and dialogue. The method of identifying invariant features of the region proposed by the authors is used to study the identity of the Volgograd region. Studies show that the symbolic matrix of the culture of the Volgograd region is the concepts of "winner", "creator", "unifier". The approach presented in this study is permeated with the idea of rapprochement of philosophical discourse with theoretical models of sociology and social anthropology, as well as with empirical studies of cultural practices in social anthropology and sociology. According to the authors, only the integration of knowledge about culture makes it possible to expand the horizons of cultural creativity, the possibilities of self-realization of cultural subjects, thereby contributing to the creation of a communicative space and symbolic forms aimed at resolving crises, eliminating contradictions, achieving existential comfort, optimizing life in a social environment. transformation.

Transitions as a coevolutionary process: The urban emergence of electric vehicle inventions

This paper combines a multi-sectoral approach with a perspective on the geography of transitions. The concept of coevolution is used to bridge these contributions as it allows to see mutual influences and adaptation between sectors while acknowledging spatial embeddedness and its economic, institutional and social aspects. The argument is discussed using the case of the transition to Electric Vehicles (EVs) and the connections between three technologies: EV, battery, and smart grid. Patent citations are used to construct three main paths allowing to geolocate key inventions and to elaborate on the role of cities in supporting knowledge recombination. The case study suggests that a coevolutionary perspective can contribute to understanding the geography of transitions in three ways: by relating emerging socio-technical configurations to changed power relations and opportunities along the value chain, by exposing the spatial embeddedness of interdependent sectors and by clarifying the role of actors and networks.

Deep Evolutionary Learning for Molecular Design

In this paper, a prototypical deep evolutionary learning (DEL) process is proposed to integrate deep generative model and multi-objective evolutionary computation for molecular design. Our approach enables <xref ref-type="disp-formula" rid="deqn1" xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">(1)</xref> evolutionary operations in the latent space of the generative model, rather than the structural space, to generate promising novel molecular structures for the next evolutionary generation, and <xref ref-type="disp-formula" rid="deqn2" xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">(2)</xref> generative model fine-tuning using newly generated high-quality samples. Thus, DEL implements a data-model co-evolution concept which improves both sample population and generative model learning. Experiments on public datasets indicate that the sample population obtained by DEL exhibits improvement on property distributions, and dominates samples generated by other baseline molecular optimization algorithms. Furthermore, comparisons with a range of deep generative models show that DEL is beneficial for improving sample populations.

Multilevel controller‐assisted intrinsically modified ant colony optimization heuristic‐based load‐balancing model for mega cloud infrastructures

SummaryThe exponential rise in decentralized computing demands has made cloud computing an inevitable technical need; however, under exceedingly high load dynamism, ensuring service level agreement (SLA) has remained a challenge. Despite of the fact that heuristic‐driven VM migration or load‐balancing methods are effective towards quality of service (QoS) and reliable cloud services, the major existing solutions ignore the issues of local minima and convergence and hence undergo SLA violation (SLAV). Moreover, most of the existing methods are designed as a reactive scheduling concept that often results into delayed scheduling and hence SLAV or QoS compromise. To alleviate such issues, in this paper, a robust intrinsically modified evolutionary computing‐driven dynamic load‐balancing model (intrinsically modified ant colony system [IMACS]) is proposed for mega cloud infrastructures. To address aforesaid issues, IMACS employs stochastic prediction‐based overload detection, followed by SLA‐sensitive VM selection and IMACS for load balancing. In IMACS, the use of stochastic prediction‐based overload detection method enabled timely hotspot detection and hence improved proactive decision ability. Moreover, it applies minimum migration time‐sensitive VM selection concept that too helped in guaranteeing load balancing without undergoing downtime or SLAV. To improve VM migration, unlike classical heuristic methods, we designed IMACS with multitype population, adaptive pheromone update, adaptive pheromone diffusion, and coevolution concept, which not only helped in reducing the search space and allied computation but also enabled time‐efficient scheduling decision. The overall proposed model was realized in sync with two controllers named local controller and global controller. Here, the first controller collects the real‐time VM and VM manager (VMM) information which is used to detect overloaded host and the VM to be migrated. While the global controller is designed with IMACS to exploit the information from local controller to execute QoS‐sensitive VM migration. The proposed IMACS‐driven load‐balancing model was realized with CloudSim platform were simulating it over 800 number of independent VMs, each encompassing autonomous task, the performance was analyzed in terms of SLAV, number of migrations, SLA per active host, and energy consumption. Simulation results revealed that the proposed model exhibits 20% higher migration, while retaining almost 19% better SLA in comparison to the other state‐of‐art methods like genetic algorithm or classical ant colony system‐based load‐balancing methods. IMACS exhibited 30% higher host shutdown signifying better energy efficiency (15% lower power consumption).

A dual-operator strategy for a multiobjective evolutionary algorithm based on decomposition

Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) are a kind of population based on optimization method by adopting survival of the fittest rules. The performance of EAs can be greatly improved by appropriate genetic operators, so how to select an appropriate genetic operator is a key issue. In order to solve this problem, some genetic operators are mixed to use with a certain probability to improve their spatial search capabilities. However, it is difficult to solve most complex multi-objective problems (MOPs) based on a certain probability value. In this paper, under the concept of co-evolution and Duty Ratio, we built a genetic operator based on Differential Evolution (DE) and Simulated Binary Crossover (SBX), and the adjustment of Duty Ratio parameter is learned based on the historical used times of DE and SBX. Under the framework of Multi-objective Evolutionary Algorithm Based on Decomposition (MOEA/D), we propose our dual-operator strategy (DOS) based on learning strategy, namely MOEA/D-DOS. We compared MOEA/D-DOS with other six versions of multi-objective EAs, and the final result showed that MOEA/D-DOS has achieved the better results.

Two-Step Dynamic Cell Optimization Algorithm for HAPS Mobile Communications

High altitude platform stations are attracting much attention as novel mobile communication platforms for ultra-wide coverage areas and disaster-resilient networks. Multi-cell configurations can increase communication capacity in a wide area. Conventional work optimizes the cell configuration for a multi-cell configuration based on a genetic algorithm (GA). This method identifies an optimal cell configuration in terms of spectral efficiency depending on the number of cells under a uniform user distribution. However, user distributions differ depending on location; thus, cell configuration optimization is also required for non-uniform user distributions. The problem is an increased number of parameters because each cell requires different antenna parameters for non-user distributions compared to a uniform user distribution. This increases the difficulty of optimization, even when using a GA in some cases. Therefore, We propose a GA-based two-step cell optimization algorithm that comprises both search space reduction and antenna parameter optimization steps to address this problem. The proposed method employs the concept of co-evolution, i.e., a divide-and-conquer method. The proposed method divides multiple cells into several groups to reduce the number of optimized parameters and optimizes each group in order. In addition, the search space is reduced based on a marginal histogram obtained via optimization with a large step size. Simulation results demonstrate that this technique can reduce the number of combinations compared to the case without sub-area division. In addition, there are cases where the search space reduction further reduces the number of combinations without degrading the sum of the square root of throughput.

Co-evolutionary heritage reuse: a European multiple case study perspective

ABSTRACT Reusing heritage sites is no longer only a practice of maintaining the historic, built values of a heritage object, but increasingly also a practice of linking heritage buildings to other aims such as involving local (heritage) communities or integrating heritage in its urban context. However, working closely with local heritage communities and incorporating multiple aims and stakeholders – each with their own interests and understanding of heritage – makes projects of heritage reuse highly complex. To address and understand this complexity, various scholars argue for a co-evolutionary perspective that sees heritage as a manifestation of interrelated and interdependent processes. This paper translates the concept of co-evolution into a conceptual model for analysing practices of heritage reuse. We apply this model in sixteen selected European projects of heritage reuse, to analyse how and why co-evolution manifests itself in projects of heritage reuse. This analysis demonstrates that the actions of initiators and other actors in the heritage reuse projects, as well as the social/institutional system in which they operate, are conducive to whether or not a co-evolutionary heritage approach is enacted.

Retheorizing industrial–institutional coevolution: a multidimensional perspective

ABSTRACT Evolutionary economic geography has sought to understand the development of regional industrial pathways but tended to neglect both the multiscalarity of economic development and the role of institutional change. The concept of coevolution seeks to bridge this gap but is still too vague for empirical application. Understanding the interactions between path development and institutional change in regional economies and on higher spatial scales requires retheorizing coevolution along the dimensions of institutional–industrial coevolution, path multiplicity and multiscalarity. The article proposes such a retheorized concept of coevolution by integrating concepts of path development, institutions, institutional change, institutional entrepreneurship, institutional work and nestedness.

The Evolution of “Co-evolution” (Part II): The Biological Analogy, Different Kinds of Co-evolution, and Proposals for Conceptual Expansion

Descriptions of problem-solution “co-evolution” either explicitly or implicitly draw an analogy between processes of design and processes of biological evolution. Analogies of this kind are common in research because of their potential to assist in explanation and discovery. However, reviewing the design literature reveals that the discussion of design co-evolution has become disconnected from the biological analogy on which it is founded, and from which other disciplines draw. Here, I explore the function of the co-evolution analogy, provide an illustrative example from biology, and explore the varieties of co-evolution to which design might be compared. By doing so, I propose two possible directions for expanding the design co-evolution concept: (i) examining what co-evolves in addition to, or instead of, problems and solutions, and (ii) examining the different levels at which co-evolution occurs. Both of these proposals are illustrated with a variant of the design co-evolution diagram.

Developing and leveraging platforms in a traditional industry: An orchestration and co-creation perspective

In the current fast-changing and digitalizing world, ever more firms active in traditional industries are transforming themselves into ‘Smart Factories’. Within their value chains, manufacturers are shifting from working at arm's length with other firms, to creating integrated platforms. These are composed of co-creating and collaborating actors. Even though the opportunities and competitive advantages of platforms for industrial applications have been proven, insights in the lead actors' efforts to ensure co-evolution of the platform and the platform actors' contributions to value co-creation are scarce. That way, the full potential of collaborative firm settings might not be realized. Addressing this gap, we explore through a multiple case study how manufacturers in the traditional Chinese textile industry gradually adopt a platform-based logic. This results in an integrative framework unfolding the lead actor's orchestration capabilities to ensure co-evolution, and the prerequisites for value co-creation in a platform. As such, we adapt and extend the co-evolution concept mostly examined in a dyadic setting to a multiple actors' logic and answer calls for additional research on the micro-foundations of value co-creation in platforms.

Designing of social and labor relations in the context of transformation: principles, organizational and institutional aspects

The paper studies the organizational and institutional problems in the field of labor relations transformation and substantiates novel principles of their designing aimed at achieving the balance between the interests of the parties. We used a system-axiological approach based on a combination of analytical, institutional and systemic methods. The concept of co-evolution was applied while considering organizational and institutional aspects of social and labor relations. The study proposes axiological dialectics as a systemic and meaning-forming factor in the transformation of labor relations. The author understands the transformation of labor relations as a construction of their novel organizational and inter-organizational structure intended to ensure the long-term functioning and development of the company. The analysis of organizational and institutional bases of labor relations is carried out and four principles for the construction of labor relations in the transformation state in respect to economic systems are developed. The proposed organizational and institutional methodology and principles for labor relations designing can reduce contradictions in the system of labor relations and help achieve a balance of its participants’ interests. They can also serve as a conceptual basis for building the system of labor relations under transformation, as well as a way to shape the socio-economic development strategy of a company and/or an economic system.

The development, misuse and evidence of the concept &amp;ldquo;coevolution&amp;rdquo;

Natural selection is one of the most important components of organic evolution, while the concept of coevolution proposes that reciprocal selection generated by interacting species could also drive their organic evolution. Formally raised in 1964, the concept of coevolution has extensively developed, but been misused or even abused. Although continuously emerging studies have verified that some ecological interactions are indeed coevolution, queries of whether it is an acceptable concept remain. To clarify the precise use of the concept, we list and re-induce mistakes in using or misunderstanding of coevolution. Here a concise principle for correct usage is suggested, i.e. confirming three aspects: species interaction, reciprocal selection as well as co-phylogenesis. Bibliometric methods are applied to quantify the development of the coevolution concept, showing the bursting expansion of the term “coevolution” into study fields beyond evolutionary biology, and revealing that current usage of “coevolution” still remains within a reasonable range. Currently, studies of ecological interactions are commonly considered as in the coevolution field. Differences and commonsense of the other six related terms, namely coadaptation, cooperation, interaction, interplay, mutualism and symbiosis, are briefly discussed. Finally, case studies of frontier topics of coevolution, geographic mosaic theory of coevolution, are introduced. A better understanding of the coevolution concept could be achieved if misuse or abuse is avoided. This paper may provide references for future coevolution studies.

La libertad incorporada como clave para la neuroeducación moral

Abstract Freedom is one of the main attributes with which the human being has traditionally been characterized. The objective of this paper is to analyse whether, in the light of neuroscientific research and experiments, it is possible to continue characterizing the human being as a being with freedom. To this end, the well-known Benjamin Libet experiment and the reductionist conclusions that influential authors such as Patricia S. Churchland or Michael Gazzaniga extract for philosophy are mentioned. From a hermeneutical methodology, it is denounced the neuroscientific reductionism that aims to deny freedom based on empirical evidence. Faced with this reductionism, it is proposed a hermeneutic approach that complements the neuroscientific discoveries about the functioning of the brain with the moral perspective of the agent. From this approach it is possible to speak of ‘embodied freedom’, which overcomes both an irreconcilable vision between nature and freedom and a reductionist vision of the nature of freedom. The application of this embodied freedom into the plane of moral neuroeducation is especially important since it allows us to understand moral learning as a synergistic action of the corporal substrates and the moral ideas. By taking into account both the phylogenetic explanation of morality (focusing on the neurobiology of the moral nature) and the cultural dimension of moral education (focusing on moral progress from education), it is possible to achieve a more comprehensively approach to the phenomenon of neuroeducation moral. Both the concept of coevolution and the neuroeducation of care and justice contribute to recognizing the embodied freedom as a fundamental key to moral neuroeducation.
