Detailed "how-to" examples of the three phases (analysis-modeling-design) of systems science are applied to systems of various types (machines, organic (e.g. ecosystem), and supra-organic (e.g. business organizations and government). The complexity of the global system has reached proportions that seriously challenge our abilities to understand the consequences of our use of technology, modification of natural ecosystems, or even how to govern ourselves. For this reason, complex mathematics is eschewed when simpler structures will suffice, allowing the widest possible audience to apply and benefit from the available tools and concepts of systems science in their own work. The book shows, in detail, how to functionally and structurally deconstruct complex systems using a fundamental language of systems. It shows how to capture the discovered details in a structured knowledge base from which abstract models can be derived for simulation. The knowledge base is also shown to be a basis for generating system design specifications for human-built artifacts, or policy recommendations/policy mechanisms for socio-economic-ecological systems management. The book builds on principles and methods found in the authors' textbook Principles of Systems Science (co-authored with Michael Kalton), but without prerequisites. It will appeal to a broad audience that deals with complex systems every day, from design engineers to economic and ecological systems managers and policymakers. 001445076 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed March 17, 2022). 001445076 650_0 $$aSystem theory. 001445076 650_6 $$aThéorie des systèmes. 001445076 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001445076 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3030934810$$z9783030934811$$w(OCoLC)1286147111 001445076 852__ $$bebk 001445076 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-93482-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001445076 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1445076$$pGLOBAL_SET 001445076 980__ $$aBIB 001445076 980__ $$aEBOOK 001445076 982__ $$aEbook 001445076 983__ $$aOnline 001445076 994__ $$a92$$bISE
