Abstract:
This paper considers four strands of thinking emerging from Cambridge University, Engineering Design Centre; Sydney University, Complex Civil Systems Group and the Advanced Research and Assessment Group. It considers the synthesis of the machine and the organization in mechorganics; it examines the Lodestone concept as a means for instrumenting social awareness; it considers the role variety plays in collaboratively influencing complex systems, over time, and coordinating and controlling them, in time. Finally, it examines the needs for assaying information and data as a means of providing the social transparencies needed for real time verification and validation. From this, it posits the needs for simple empirical standards and setting/vetting organizations that encourage good behavior and discourage bad. These standards’ organizations provide for the governance and assurances necessary for packet-markets to form where prices can be assured, products verified, exchanges made and fees / taxes abstracted.
