European meeting on Cybernetics and systems research

Cybernetics and systems in the 1980s

Considers the material impact of computers and cybernetics in the 1980s. Summarizes some of the then current principal applications. Looks at the contribution made by cybernetics to computer development in the period 1940‐1981. Emphasises the widely held belief of the day that “anyone must have some understanding of computers and their operation to understand much about cybernetics”. The re‐published work served as a guide and introduction to using the digital computers of the 1980s in systems and cybernetics research and developments and was one in a series of 12 texts prepared by some well‐known cyberneticians and systemists on important topics in these inter‐ and trans‐disciplinary sciences.

UNCOLORABLE TRIVALENT GRAPHS

The text that follows is an extended write-up of the Ross Ashby Memorial Lecture of the International Federation for Systems Research, delivered by invitation to a plenary session of the Thirteenth European Meeting on Cybernetics and Systems Research at the University of Vienna on April 10, 1996. For ease of reading I have retained the informal style of the lecture theater, but without sacrificing accuracy and rigor in my theorems and proofs. Isaacs 1975 detailed a way to make uncolorable 3-graphs. The first part of this communication shows that it is, in principle, the only way and that all such graphs that can define maps must be nonplanar, thus proving the four-color map theorem by exclusion. The second part shows that the method is ineffectual for closed chains of units with a linkage of less or more than 3, so proving that Isaacs found all uncolorable 3-graphs. The associated proof of the map theorem in no way depends on this stronger result but on the fact that chains with a triple or greater linkage, whether colorable or not, cannot be planar. The third part simplifies the Isaacs dot product, proves that his Q class has no more members, and relates the 4-color proof in the first part to the proofs in Appendix 5 of Spencer-Brown 1997.

Ribosomal Robotics Approaches Critical Experiments; Government Agencies Watch with Mixed Interest

Despite government warnings to the contrary, and a Federal judge's finding that his research may violate the terms of his recent parole, Stephan Tiding has returned to his research at the Mesoscale Physics Institute. Imprisoned nearly ten years ago for violations of the critical self‐organizational clause of the Cybernetics Restriction Treaty of 2022 (CRT‐22), Tiding has returned with an obvious vengeance not only to his research, but also to his criticisms of government intervention in cybernetics research.

A Model of Control of an Equation for Two-Electron Interaction

Quantum Schrödinger equation, describing dynamical spin-interaction of two electrons with external magnetic field, is considered as an object for cybernetic research. Indeed, because of having a possibility to change external magnetic field, we can influence the interaction of particles. The algorithm of investigation of the algebraic structure of the spin-system is given. A specification of this algorithm is essentially connected with a control aspect. The spin-system is decomposed into six subsystems by using the found algebraic structure. Five from them are one-dimensional noninteract subsystems. Every from the latter has his own one-dimensional control.

The Relation Between Creative Management and Control Technology in Conflict Resolution

Development of this thesis has arisen from two prior Papers: Creative Management in Conflict Resolution in Total Enviroment. Proc. European Management and Cybernetics Research Institute, Vienna, April 1988, and Further Applied Studies in Creative Management of Potential Conflict at National and International Levels. Budapest, June 1988.These two Papers proposed and gave examples of conflict resolution achieved by the application to total management control networks and decision structures the following new principles - In addition to the present systems of Tele-supervisory controls andapplications using only power and resources as the control determinants, the following control determinants and creative methods to achieve conflict resolution and resultant steady state stability should be used in the total regimes of neural and external cybernetic network control systems and application methodologies. Control determinants. Additional inputs to cybernetic network to existing Power and Resources only on a Deterministal Basis. Integrity - Truth; Environment - Beauty; Moral Standards - Goodness. Control methodology and input decision making: Tele -supervisory - Space; Time Control - Time. In accord with A. N. Whitehead, Notions of Creative Mankind in the Environment of a space time continuum. Whilst these are broad concepts the high rate of modern information and Telecommunication systems makes their potential as man-system cybernetics network advantageously manipulable and creative. In the present state of the art, the most effective demonstration of the potential is from case studies analysed on the basis of these stated principles in relation to past successes of Creative Management with a target of making the methodology universally applicable with appropriate adaptation. Case studies will in this paper outline more fully illustration of the proposed cybernetic and systems engineering and technology so that further research development and application can follow.
