criteria of success for a complex system

Towards a Fourth Generation Pattern Language

We design systems, over time they take their own dynamics, and we have little means to monitor the evolution of systems in relation to their intended directionality.

We do need to introduce and build a transversal knowledge for the navigation and orientation of systems along their evolution in time.

Patterns are a critical tool in this, in the possibility they embody to connect general abstract theory to the local practice across contexts and cultures.

Patterns can be connected through systemic elements, which also establish a semantic connection across pattern languages and domains of practice.

{In other words, criterion of success for a complex system is following it's intended directionality? - DVS}
