From Information Systems to Complex Adaptive Information Systems

概要

In this paper we try to argue for the need of a reconceptualization of information systems. We highlight a number of problems encountered in current information system and argue that faced with these problems it is either impossible or unnatural and difficult to tackle the problems with current artificial intelligence techniques. The first problems are the problems of vague terms and personalization and the well-known Knowledge Acquisition Problem. We intrpduce two other problems which we name the Unknowability Problem and the Explication Problem which cannot be solve in current information systems, even in principle. We show how there is a meaningful mapping between information systems and what has been termed complex adaptive systems, and propose to take the analogy seriously by letting it guide our construction of whole information system that show a coherency lacking in current information systems.
