Sistemene
Sistemene is a theoretical framework used to study complex adaptive systems and distributed governance. It treats a system as a network of autonomous modules called sistemes, operating under common protocols to achieve coordinated outcomes without centralized control. The term appears in speculative and academic discussions as a model of modular design and emergent behavior.
Architecture centers on a layered approach with perception, decision, action, and feedback. Perception gathers local state
Sistemene nodes, or sistemes, are lightweight computational units with local memory and processing power. They exchange
Applications include modeling urban dynamics, sensor networks, autonomous vehicle fleets, energy grids, and organizational processes. In
Critics note challenges in predicting emergent behavior, verifying correctness, and avoiding governance fragmentation. Proponents value its
Etymology and related concepts: The name combines the root system with the suffix -ene to suggest interconnected
