Open system (systems theory)
An open system is a system that has external interactions. Such interactions can take the form of information, energy, or material transfers into or out of the system boundary, depending on the discipline which defines the concept. An open system is contrasted with the concept of an isolated system which exchanges neither energy, matter, nor information with its environment. An open system is also known as a constant volume system or a flow system.
The concept of an open system was formalized within a framework that enabled one to interrelate the theory of the organism, thermodynamics, and evolutionary theory. This concept was expanded upon with the advent of information theory and subsequently systems theory. Today the concept has its applications in the natural and social sciences.
In the natural sciences an open system is one whose border is permeable to both energy and mass. In physics a closed system, by contrast, is permeable to energy but not to matter.

Paradigm shift
A paradigm shift is a phrase that was popularized by American physicist Thomas Kuhn to describe the nature of scientific revolutions, or fundamental changes in the basic concepts and experimental practices of a scientific discipline. Kuhn contrasts these shifts to the activity of normal science, which he characterized as scientific work done within a prevailing framework (or paradigm). In this context, the word "paradigm" is used in its original meaning, as "example" (Greek: παράδειγμα).
The nature of scientific revolutions has been a question posed by modern philosophy since Immanuel Kant used the phrase in the preface to his Critique of Pure Reason (1781), referring to Greek mathematics and Newtonian physics. In the 20th century, new crises in the basic concepts of mathematics, physics, and biology, revitalized interest in the question among scholars. It was against this active background that Kuhn published his work.
Kuhn presented his notion of a paradigm shift in his influential book The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (1962). As one commentator summarizes:

Feed forward (control)
Feed-forward, sometimes written feedforward, is a term describing an element or pathway within a control system which passes a controlling signal from a source in its external environment, often a command signal from an external operator, to a load elsewhere in its external environment. A control system which has only feed-forward behavior responds to its control signal in a pre-defined way without responding to how the load reacts; it is in contrast with a system that also has feedback, which adjusts the output to take account of how it affects the load, and how the load itself may vary unpredictably; the load is considered to belong to the external environment of the system.
In a feed-forward system, the control variable adjustment is not error-based. Instead it is based on knowledge about the process in the form of a mathematical model of the process and knowledge about or measurements of the process disturbances.
Some prerequisites are needed for control scheme to be reliable by pure feed-forward without feedback: the external command or controlling signal must be available, and the effect of the output of the system on the load should be known (that usually means that the load must be predictably unchanging with time). Sometimes pure feed-forward control without feedback is called 'ballistic', because once a control signal has been sent, it cannot be further adjusted; any corrective adjustment must be by way of a new control signal. In contrast 'cruise control' adjusts the output in response to the load that it encounters, by a feedback mechanism.

Organizations as Open Systems
The systems perspective, or the theory of systems, was first developed in the physical sciences, but it has been extended to other areas, such as management. A system is an interrelated set of elements that function as a whole. According to this perspective, an organizational system receives four kinds of inputs from its environment: material, human, financial, and informational. The organization’s managers then combine and transform these inputs and return them to the environment in the form of products or services, employee behaviors, profits or losses, and additional information. As outputs, these products are sold to the consuming public. Profits from operations are fed back into the environment through taxes, investments, and dividends; losses, when they occur, hit the environment ...

The systems perspective, or the theory of systems, was first developed in the physical sciences, but it has been extended to other areas, such as management. A system is an interrelated set of elements that function as a whole.
According to this perspective, an organizational system receives four kinds of inputs from its environment: material, human, financial, and informational. The organization’s managers then combine and transform these inputs and return them to the environment in the form of products or services, employee behaviors, profits or losses, and additional information.
As outputs, these products are sold to the consuming public. Profits from operations are fed back into the environment through taxes, investments, and dividends; losses, when they occur, hit the environment by reducing stockholders’ incomes.
Then the system receives feedback from the environment regarding these outputs. Finally, information about the company and its operations is also released into the environment. The environment, in turn, responds to these outputs and influences future inputs.
The systems perspective is valuable to managers for a variety of reasons. The systems perspective helps managers conceptualize the flow and interaction of various elements of the organization itself as they work together to transform inputs into outputs.

A short overview to the new area of network theory.
Systems theory is a set of theoretical concepts used to describe a wide variety of thing in terms of a model called a system. To give it context lets talk a bit about it's origins.
Of cause people have been coming up with abstract theories about how the world work for a long time. Some ancient Greeks thought everything was made of earth, water, fire and air, whilst others came to the conclusion that it was the expression of perfect geometric forms.
Over the years our theoretical systems have grown into large and sophisticated bodies of knowledge such as philosophy, mathematics and the many areas of theoretical science, although these theoretical frameworks are often limited to relatively specific area of interest.
During the 20th century Systems theory emerged as a new theory that draws upon many core concepts within these pre-existing methods to develop a more abstract framework that is designed to be universally applicable to all domains.
To achieve such a general relevance, system theory starts with the abstract concept of a system and then applies this to modeling various different phenomena from biological to social and technical systems.
The model of a system can be loosely defined as a set of parts often called elements that form a whole, which is referred to as the system. A system exists within an environment and has a boundary that differentiates the systems exterior from its interior.
An example of this might be a country, interior to which are all the people, institution and other elements that constitutes the nation as an entire system. Whilst exterior to its boundary is the international political environment.
A system can be either open or isolated, isolated systems do not interact with their environment, but most systems are open meaning there is an exchange of energy and resources between the system and its environment.
The passing of energy or resources from the exterior of the systems boundary to the interior is termed an input whilst the reverse is termed an output.
Systems develop or function through the input of energy or resources from their environment, they process this energy by transforming it to create an output, if this output is of some value to its environment it can be termed energy.
If on the other hand it is of negative value it may be termed entropy, a scientific term for lack of order, disarrangement or in more familiar terms we might call it waste.
An early use of this type of model was during the development of the steam-engine where scientist and engineers were thinking about the amount of fuel inputted to the engine relative to the power out put and heat energy wasted. By using this model they could create a quantifiable ration between them that we would now term the efficiency of the system.
Of cause this same reasoning can be applied to a wide variety of phenomena from the processing of energy within a plant cell to the efficiency of a business organization.
We can model systems on various scales, thus elements can form part of systems that themselves form part of larger systems and so on, this is termed nesting or encapsulation and helps us to analyst a system on various levels whilst hiding away the underlining complexity.
Systems theory explores many other areas such as Emergence that raises key question about the relationship between the parts within a system and the hole, that is how elements can function together or self organize to create some new and emergent structure as an entirety...

The systems perspective, or the theory of systems, was first developed in the physical sciences, but it has been extended to other areas, such as management. A system is an interrelated set of elements that function as a whole.
According to this perspective, an organizational system receives four kinds of inputs from its environment: material, human, financial, and informational. The organization’s managers then combine and transform these inputs and return them to the environment in the form of products or services, employee behaviors, profits or losses, and additional information.
As outputs, these products are sold to the consuming public. Profits from operations are fed back into the environment through taxes, investments, and dividends; losses, when they occur, hit the environment by reducing stockholders’ incomes.
Then the system receives feedback from the environment regarding these outputs. Finally, information about the company and its operations is also released into the environment. The environment, in turn, responds to these outputs and influences future inputs.
The systems perspective is valuable to managers for a variety of reasons. The systems perspective helps managers conceptualize the flow and interaction of various elements of the organization itself as they work together to transform inputs into outputs.

A opened system is a system that has external interactions. Such interactions can take the form of information, energy, or material transfers into or out of the system boundary, depending on the discipline which defines the concept. An open system is contrasted with the concept of an isolated system which exchanges neither energy, matter, nor information with its environment. Open system is also known as constant volume system and flow system
The concept of an open system was formalized within a framework that enabled one to interrelate the theory of the organism, thermodynamics, and evolutionary theory. This concept was expanded upon with the advent of information theory and subsequently systems theory. Today the concept has its applications in the natural and social sciences.

Reductionism explains that reducing things down to their smallest parts and examining them individually is enough to understand the whole system. The systems approach dictates that you must look at the system as a whole, interacting with its environment, before you can fully understand it.

A short overview to the new area of network theory.
Systems theory is a set of theoretical concepts used to describe a wide variety of thing in terms of a model called a system. To give it context lets talk a bit about it's origins.
Of cause people have been coming up with abstract theories about how the world work for a long time. Some ancient Greeks thought everything was made of earth, water, fire and air, whilst others came to the conclusion that it was the expression of perfect geometric forms.
Over the years our theoretical systems have grown into large and sophisticated bodies of knowledge such as philosophy, mathematics and the many areas of theoretical science, although these theoretical frameworks are often limited to relatively specific area of interest.
During the 20th century Systems theory emerged as a new theory that draws upon many core concepts within these pre-existing methods to develop a more abstract framework that is designed to be universally applicable to all domains.
To achieve such a general relevance, system theory starts with the abstract concept of a system and then applies this to modeling various different phenomena from biological to social and technical systems.
The model of a system can be loosely defined as a set of parts often called elements that form a whole, which is referred to as the system. A system exists within an environment and has a boundary that differentiates the systems exterior from its interior.
An example of this might be a country, interior to which are all the people, institution and other elements that constitutes the nation as an entire system. Whilst exterior to its boundary is the international political environment.
A system can be either open or isolated, isolated systems do not interact with their environment, but most systems are open meaning there is an exchange of energy and resources between the system and its environment.
The passing of energy or resources from the exterior of the systems boundary to the interior is termed an input whilst the reverse is termed an output.
Systems develop or function through the input of energy or resources from their environment, they process this energy by transforming it to create an output, if this output is of some value to its environment it can be termed energy.
If on the other hand it is of negative value it may be termed entropy, a scientific term for lack of order, disarrangement or in more familiar terms we might call it waste.
An early use of this type of model was during the development of the steam-engine where scientist and engineers were thinking about the amount of fuel inputted to the engine relative to the power out put and heat energy wasted. By using this model they could create a quantifiable ration between them that we would now term the efficiency of the system.
Of cause this same reasoning can be applied to a wide variety of phenomena from the processing of energy within a plant cell to the efficiency of a business organization.
We can model systems on various scales, thus elements can form part of systems that themselves form part of larger systems and so on, this is termed nesting or encapsulation and helps us to analyst a system on various levels whilst hiding away the underlining complexity.
Systems theory explores many other areas such as Emergence that raises key question about the relationship between the parts within a system and the hole, that is how elements can function together or self organize to create some new and emergent structure as an entirety...

Open system (systems theory)
An open system is a system that has external interactions. Such interactions can take the form of information, energy, or material transfers into or out of the system boundary, depending on the discipline which defines the concept. An open system is contrasted with the concept of an isolated system which exchanges neither energy, matter, nor information with its environment. An open system is also known as a constant volume system or a flow system.
The concept of an open system was formalized within a framework that enabled one to interrelate the theory of the organism, thermodynamics, and evolutionary theory. This concept was expanded upon with the advent of information theory and subsequently systems theory. Today the concept has its applications in the natural and social sciences.
In the natural sciences an open system is one whose border is permeable to both energy and mass. In physics a closed system, by contrast, is permeable to energy but not to matter.
