Francis Heylighen: Introduction to Self-Organizing Systems

Function of a System

Function = what the system (robustly) does

  • System itself determines its purpose

“Does” = transforms input into output

  • Represented by input output-function
  • f: I → O: i → f(i)

“robustly” = in a stable, invariant matter

  • Invariant under further evolution or most perturbations
  • The “attractor” of the system’s dynamics is the implicit goal of the system
