Second-order cybernetics
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Second-order cybernetics investigates the construction of models of cybernetic systems. It investigates cybernetics with awareness that the investigators are part of the system, and of the importance of self-referentiality, self-organizing, etc.
