Sistemingus

Sistemingus is a theoretical framework for analyzing complex, interdependent systems across disciplines such as biology, technology, and society. It models a system as a network of interacting units, called sistemings, whose states evolve under local dynamics and external inputs. The framework emphasizes emergent properties that arise from nonlinear interactions, feedback loops, and adaptive coupling rather than from a single governing rule.

The term is a neologism coined to reflect the integration of systemic analysis across domains. Core concepts include sisteming units, their connections (edges), states, and transition rules. The model is designed to accommodate both deterministic and stochastic dynamics and to support multi-scale representations by composing submodels into higher-level networks.

Applications include ecosystem management, urban systems, organizational design, and the evaluation of AI or information flows. By enabling modular, cross-domain modeling, sistemingus aims to provide a shared vocabulary for describing how local interactions shape global behavior.

History and reception: Since appearing in informal scholarly discussions in the 2010s, sistemingus has circulated primarily in interdisciplinary and online education contexts. It has not been formalized into a universal standard, and definitions vary. Proponents argue it helps unify disparate modeling approaches, while critics caution that the lack of formal axioms limits empirical testability.
