Complexity Science: Foundations for Adaptive Automation in Businesses

October 15, 2013 in Intelligent Systems / The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Cobots tagged Adaptive systems / business architecture / Diana Belohlavek / Diego Belohlavek / Fundamental analysis / Unicist Evolutionary Approach / Unicist Logical Tools / Unicist Standard / Unicist Technologies / Unicist Thinking by Peter Belohlavek

Adaptive automation implies dealing with complex adaptive systems and developing operational solutions that can be managed by everyone to expand businesses and save energy.

It requires using predictors to deal with the adaptive aspects of the reality that is being managed. The more adaptive a system is, the less energy it consumes to generate a predefined value.

This requires using a complexity science approach to define the rules that regulate adaptiveness and allow designing the architecture of the system. Complexity science can be defined as the scientific approach to complex adaptive systems.

There are three main organizations in the world that are fully focused on complexity science and its application in the field of human complex adaptive systems.

We strongly recommend comparing their approaches to choose the one that is functional to introduce adaptive automation. We suggest beginning by accessing their institutional page to apprehend the concept of adaptiveness they manage:

What is the Unicist Logical Approach to Complexity Sciences?

The unicist logical approach manages the adaptive aspects of business as unified fields based on the knowledge of their ontogenetic maps.

Unicist Active Business Library

The knowledge of the ontogenetic map of a business, its market and the context allowed managing the fundamentals that define the possibilities of business actions.

The future scenario building became possible based on the knowledge of the ontology of evolution and the ontogenetic maps of a business and its restricted and wide contexts.

This knowledge allowed defining synergic maximal strategies, to expand beyond the boundaries of a business, and minimum strategies to work within them.

Adaptive business processes became reliable based on the use of ontology based business objects. The use of objects upgraded the role of human work in business.

The integration of fundamental analysis and technical analysis allowed building reliable business knowledge, transforming uncertainty into risk and integrating the knowledge of the possibilities of success with its probabilities.

All the solutions, business objects, technologies and knowledge provided by The Unicist Research Institute are based on the unicist logical approach and generate significant energy saving effects.

The Unicist Standard for Organizational Design

January 16, 2013 in Intelligent Systems / The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Cobots tagged Adaptive systems / Business Objects / business architecture / Diego Belohlavek / Japanese Park / Organizational Design / Organizational Effectiveness / ontogenetic maps / Peter Belohlavek / Process Design / The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Confederation / Unicist Corporate University / Unicist Evolutionary Approach / Unicist Logical Tools / Unicist Standard by The Unicist Research Institute

Organizations are typical adaptive systems. If they were not, they could not survive.

The Unicist Standard for an organizational process requires having found the real characteristics of the external and internal environment in order to develop such process based on reality and not on a hypothetical reality.

Every design must include the integration of efficacy and efficiency in order to achieve the effectiveness that is required by the environment. If the organization has decided to introduce continuous improvement, it is necessary to include business objects to minimize the change of any improvement.

The steps for an organizational design are the following:

Japanese Park – A pilot test to confirm the starting point.
Definition of Responsibilities – To allow dealing with the organization as an adaptive system.
Clarification of the Methodology – Defining the logical approach to deal with the processes.
Definition of the final objective – Confirming the “use value” of the organizational process (Pilot tests).
Definition of the Methods – Definition of the methods to be followed. These methods are derived from the methodologies of step 3.
Evaluation & Adjustment of Costs.
Validating the “use value” of the organizational process in action (Pilot tests).

The Dualistic Approach transforms Aesthetics into Beauty

January 10, 2013 in Intelligent Systems / The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Cobots tagged Adaptive systems / Aesthetics / Business Objects / Business strategy / business architecture / Double Dialectical Logic / Peter Belohlavek / The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Confederation / Unicist Corporate University / Unicist Evolutionary Approach / unicist approach by The Unicist Research Institute

Unicist aesthetics defines the core aspect of any individual who wants to influence the environment. It is the central value of the critical mass of any influential action.

The driver of aesthetics is the capacity to complete the unsatisfied needs of someone or the environment.

The unicist double dialectical approach to aesthetics allows establishing stable perceptions integrating the desires of the counterparts with the necessary intrinsic harmony to complete their demands.

The dualistic approach transforms aesthetics into beauty, managing, on the one hand, the desires of the counterpart and, on the other hand, transforming harmony into conventional rules in order to be acceptable.

The dualistic approach to aesthetics tends to seduce clients with “empty” promises and apparent reliability. It tends to generate desires that are followed by disappointments.

The Unicist Approach to Manage Business Expansion

November 22, 2012 in Intelligent Systems / The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Cobots tagged Adaptive systems / Business strategy / business architecture / Diego Belohlavek / Fundamental analysis / growth strategies / Peter Belohlavek / Unicist Business Strategy / Unicist Evolutionary Approach / Unicist Standard / Unicist Thinking by Unicist Press Committee

Diagnoses, strategies and architecture to expand businesses require the integration of fundamental and technical-analytical knowledge. This is what the unicist approach made possible.

But to access the unicist approach to businesses it is necessary to be able to use double dialectical thinking (unicist thinking) at a personal level.

Therefore it is obvious that the precondition to use the unicist approach is the understanding of its foundations which requires using unicist thinking.

Unicist thinking empowers the adaptive approach to reality and the consequence of its use is the expansion of the level of consciousness of the user which allows making a strategic approach to reality.

You will find there other syntheses that might be of your interest: https://www.unicist-school.org/complexity-sciences/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/unicist_thinking.pdf

Without the use of unicist thinking only survival, non-influential strategies or anti-strategies are possible.

Unicist Turnkey Solutions for End-Users in Business

July 19, 2012 in The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Cobots / Unicist Process Management tagged Business Diagnosis / Business Objects / Business strategy / business architecture / Fundamental analysis / growth strategies / ontogenetic maps / Unicist Business Strategy / Unicist Evolutionary Approach / Unicist Standard / unicist approach by Diana Belohlavek

From August 2012 on, only turnkey solutions will be provided to end users in business. This implies that the unicist ontology based and objects driven technologies will be only provided to Corporate and Professional Partners. No technologies will be sold to end-users.

This implies that end-users only need to manage the operation of the business objects / business units / business processes that are installed.

The partners who participate in the development of solutions will have the Unicist Knowledge Object Manager, the Unicist Fact-book and the Centralized Quality Assurance Services available.

As the Unicist Confederation deals with the adaptive aspects of businesses, the core aspect is the definition of the actual possibilities of a business defined in its diagnoses. Therefore we recommend that you access the book on “The Unicist Standard for Ontological Business Diagnostics” at the Unicist Library:

Unicist Approach: The Power of Simplicity

June 11, 2012 in Intelligent Systems / The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Cobots tagged Business Objects / business architecture / Unicist Evolutionary Approach / Unicist Strategy / unicist approach by Peter Belohlavek

Nature, as a paradigmatic complex adaptive system, is organized by objects. The Unicist Approach is based on emulating nature to manage businesses as adaptive systems.

The Unicist Approach established a new starting point to deal with the adaptive aspects of businesses to organize their expansion. It allowed doing what was not possible before.

At an operational level, this approach is materialized in the use of the Object Driven Organization which employs Business Objects to accelerate business processes and save energy. These objects are designed based on the knowledge of the ontogenetic maps of their functions and on the use of the Unicist Standard to design business processes and objects.

Object driven marketing, object driven strategy, object driven management, object driven continuous improvement, object driven negotiation and object driven leadership are paradigmatic examples of the object driven organization.

The Unicist Approach is based on Business Objects

May 11, 2012 in The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Cobots / Unicist Object Driven Organization tagged Business Objects / business architecture / Natural Organization / ontogenetic maps / Process Design / Unicist Evolutionary Approach / Unicist Organization / Unified Field / unicist approach by Diego Belohlavek

Nature, as a paradigmatic complex adaptive system, is organized by objects. The unicist approach is an emulation of the organization of nature using object driven technologies.

The unicist organizational approach is based on emulating nature in organizations. An extremely effective organization can be developed integrating both structural aspects that sustain evolution and incidental aspects that allow dealing with conjunctures. Emulating nature implies integrating the abstract apprehension of reality with the concrete operational design.

Objects are productive units that have a concept, an added value, the necessary quality assurance and a methodology to ensure the minimum strategy. To imagine an object please consider an automatic pilot in an airplane. It can be considered a “paradigmatic” object.

Humans also use mental “pre-built” structures to approach reality. Object driven thinking is a human natural approach to reality. The human mind approaches reality using cognitive objects.

Emulating Nature: The Unicist Object Driven Organization

May 5, 2012 in The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Cobots / Unicist Object Driven Organization tagged Business Objects / business architecture / IT Architecture / IT Design / Unicist Evolutionary Approach by Diego Belohlavek

The objective of business architecture was the design and development of effective business processes before the unicist approach to business existed.

The unicist approach introduced the use of business objects emulating the organization of nature. This opened new possibilities to save energy, expand boundaries and improve results.

The object driven organization requires having a high level of maturity in business. It can be defined as the organization of processes and the use of objects to achieve the objectives that have been established in a strategy.

An object driven organization implies the development of a maximal strategy that includes the design of processes based on taxonomic procedures to put them into action and also a shared vision that makes these processes consistent with the business.

The vision of the organization is the catalyst of the minimum strategy and requires to be sustained. If it does not achieve its threshold, it works as an inhibitor of the minimum strategy and destroys the organization.

The minimum strategy is based on the use and reuse of objects within the context of methodic procedures to ensure their use and functionality. This is sustained by an action plan (a “to do” list) to guarantee the fulfillment of the minimum strategy.

The methodic action plan implies that there is a system that is able to deal with extreme situations. Extreme situations are the cases in which objects cannot solve the problems “automatically” and need to be taken care of.

The entropy inhibitor of the whole process is the action plan. As such it needs to be structured in order to ensure its fulfillment.

Considering the nature of object driven organizations it can be said that there are four different segments of object driven organizations:

1)      Function driven
2)      Objective driven
3)      Consensus driven
4)      Market driven

The Unicist Approach to Businesses is Objects Driven

April 16, 2012 in Intelligent Systems / The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Cobots tagged business architecture / growth strategies / The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Confederation / Unicist Evolutionary Approach / unicist approach by Diego Belohlavek

Nature is organized by objects and the unicist approach emulates the organization of nature in order to promote the expansion of businesses.

The unicist approach allows expanding businesses using gravitational, catalyzing, entropy inhibiting, inhibiting and driving objects.

This allows that the operational aspects of businesses are managed making them safer, saving energy while accelerating the production of results.

The use of objects requires no previous knowledge of their intrinsic functionality. All what is needed is using them at an operational level with the predefined timing in order to work in a synchronic way with the work processes where they are inserted.

But they do not replace people; they upgrade the results of their work. The processes need to be managed by people who use the business objects as pilots use the autopilots of their airplane.

People need to manage the process in order to substitute the business objects when the external working conditions exceed the predefined limits of their functionality.

The energy saved using business objects exceeds 30% of the energy consumed before their installation. It requires a transition period to move from human managed adaptive processes to business objects driven processes.
