Cibernetica, or cybernetics, is an interdisciplinary field that studies how systems regulate themselves through information flow, feedback, and control. It analyzes the ways in which organisms, machines, and organizations perceive, decide, and act to maintain stability or achieve goals.

Originating in the mid-20th century, the term was popularized by Norbert Wiener, who framed cybernetics as the

Key concepts include feedback loops, homeostasis, recursion, and the transmission and processing of information. The field

Applications span robotics, automation, cognitive science, management, ecology, and social systems. The approach has given rise

Cybernetics intersects with systems theory, information theory, and control theory, sharing concerns about regulation and communication
