Design memories as evolutionary systems: socio-technical architecture and genetics
نویسندگان
چکیده
~ A knowledge base consisting of design cases has been structured into an organizational memory wliich has been supporting a community of novices to leam Information System (IS) f o r six years. The paper discusses wky the organizational learning process which is taking place can be described as a genetic system that evolves towards rhe best qualiry attainable, and by means of a simulation examines the role of some components of this socio-technical system (i.e. features of the organizational memory, teacher ability and memetic processes' in the communiiy) in steering this evolution. Some indications for the design of socio-technical systems supported by design memories are pointed out.

A Meta-Design Perspective
Meta-design of socio-technical systems is an approach which complies with the need of integrating two different types of structures and processes: technical systems which are engineered to provide anticipatable and reliable interactions between users and systems, and social systems which are contingent in their interactions and a subject of evolution. Meta-design is focused on objectives, techn...

Demand of energy is more sensible now because of population growth and economic growth of countries. In order to increase of energy consumption around the world and environment pollution, attention to the renewable energy such as solar energy is inevitable. Building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) electric power systems not only produce electricity, they are also part of the building. For exam...
متن کاملLow Power March Memory Test Algorithm for Static Random Access Memories (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Memories are most important building blocks in many digital systems. As the Integrated Circuits requirements are growing, the test circuitry must grow as well. There is a need for more efficient test techniques with low power and high speed. Many Memory Built in Self-Test techniques have been proposed to test memories. Compared with combinational and sequential circuits memory testing utilizes ...
متن کاملCollective Memory as a Measure to Evaluate the Infill Architecture Innovations in Historic Contexts (Case Study: Historic Context of Imamzadeh Yahya in Tehran)
Historic contexts remind us of an era when cities were built based on the needs, goals, and preferences of their inhabitants. In other words, the mental world of both the builders and the inhabitants was closely interrelated. But by ignoring citizens' memories and interests and their mental needs, today's interventions with rapid developments within historic contexts have led to amnesia and the...
