F-1.1.1 Looking back - learning the future
There is a strange feeling looking back. Since early 1980´s, the stone age of ICT, unchanged:
feel complicated looking back Security: The environment must be safe. Safety is more appropriate than the buzzword "cybersecurity".
Algorithms: What is done must be understood.
The buzzword "algorithms" is poisoned by false framings of not being understandable, interpretable.
The old word is: business rules.
Risk management: What is processed should be evaluated beforehand in all possible scenarios.
Privacy, impact of outcomes should be evaluated beforehand. A stable safe situation should be included for the cases that are not handled as what is normal. Applying pareto is not acceptable.

F-1.1.3 👁 The summary and conclusion journey
working life - experiences
Wandering around on a path full of surprises.
The trigger and reason for structuring information knowledge was the idea of Jabes. It is about improvement of the processes around the portfolio in information processing. The reason in lost knowledge of: Trying to explain it to others got me mostly a lost look while some were stating it as a big opportunity. Not giving up the question why it is that hard for something tat could help that much more research was done.
Functionality:
  1. C-Serve (Technology): could do the delivery but has itself many blocking issues.
  2. C-Steer (Organisation): has the most of the ultimate benefits, but is not lead for change.
  3. C-Shape (Change support): has the best fit to be lead for change, but hits their own culture.
That is vicious situation hard to break. Switching to another perspective to see whether there are possible doors to open. Searching breaking out the vicious situation evaluating the options.
Functioning:
  1. r-steer (Organisation): the mandatory safety cybersecurity guidelines aside others.
  2. r-shape (Change support): with a floor-plan approach they have a future in their culture.
  3. r-serve (Technology): got lost in the fog of fast tech changes and what is really needed.
    At least the idea that lean, systems thinking, for organising the service as part of the whole is an option.
Still got knowledge notes without a good location. The missing ones were functionality&functioning for Command&Control.
  1. I-C6isr (Structure): Triggered by a safety cybersecurity context task and roles more defined to locations. The floorplans extended to a complete 3d model. Found a fit with systems thinking, seeing the purpose different for the system as a whole.
  2. r-c6isr (Structure): Details for task/roles in the 3d model with a focus on technical and logical safety cybersecurity.
    Transposing the vertical build floorplans (layers) to external side views for aligning more rigorous to what is used in systems thinking.
Having a model of the system where Jabes is a component there is much more possible and more getting clear. The chapter "Jabes Simf processes" touches that.

F-1.2 Motivation ikigai

F-1.2.1 👁 Passion in the work setting
The personal mind in nine areas
A philosophical approach for finding a balance in doing work and how to live is this Venn diagram. Similar kinds of hierarchy relationships are extended in my personality and profession seeking a mission. The four circles are having always a missing junction. I found my profession in: For communication, human ineraction, I have not a strong language story telling mindset. Analysing for a strategy and possible solutions is strongly associated with images with a logical base.
Using my personal mindset

F-1.2.2 Experiences learned by working
Technical - Mathematics
My education is electro-technical engineering, added with mathematics including statistics. Not quite a logical fit for information technology nowadays. At that moment courses for ICT didn´t exist as it was building from scratch being a spin-off with those mentioned technology backgrounds.
The microprocessor being used during one of the course lines was the 6502 (Motorola). My father had his connections with computing educating and mathematics. As the interest rates went up high for some years there was a problem with the used calculation tables that were commonly in use those days. He did some circumventions using an Olivetti P101 for that at our home. It was one of the first programmable calculators.

Statistical support
My first job was as "technical statistical support" role, helping researchers under supervision of statisticians. The area was preventive healthcare it was a not well known governmental small department. I switched within a couple of years into technology in the financial area.

Operational support
background the "System Programmer"
The descriptions of roles by IBM (mainframe world): Mainframe sysprogrole
System programmers are needed to install and maintain the middleware on the mainframe, such as database management systems, online transaction processing systems and Web servers.
Middleware is a software "layer" between the operating system and the end user or end user application. It supplies major functions that are not provided by the operating system. Major middleware products such as DB2, CICS, and IMS can be as complex as the operating system itself, if not more so.

That good IBM description mentions of course IBM products. Instead of those I was exposed to Cullinet (CA now Broadcom) IDMS DB/DC with an IDD (Integrated Data Dictionary) and in house made solutions. The IDD was a centralised metadata approach using a network DBMS (NoSQL) and ER schema design.

SAS - software product usage
Operational support My experience with SAS is going back as far as the early years 1980. This has become my major working area since 2004 and up to 2023. The focus has been the way of implementing that and supporting SAS users (analysts, marketing, actuaries, data science) running operational and changing environments (devops).
The role of the system programmer has the same key attention points of that of the SAS platform administrator. Someone has to understand the way to integrate those two worlds to get it all function effectively and well working for business usage.
Many positions are found while using middleware, as it is technical, and needing for your business. The most interesting one is doing the support or Business Information supporting decisions and helping with data analytics.
The positions being involved in this technical area is remarkable.
👉🏾 What is going on in an organization at many places and levels is seen.
F-1.2.3 Mindset orientation optimizations
Operational support
SIAR - Situation, Input, Activity, Result
Doing an abstraction of how processes should work is based on the idea of the full pull-push cycle of a value stream. The operations are along the borders and the strategy in the centre.
There are perspective for 2*2 and 3*3 areas, horizontal and vertical axis with a context meaning on the diagonals.
Properties: Jabes cycle
Another visualisation for the same idea of SIAR, the difference is naming the processes.
The customer with a request at the right bottom corner.
The delivery is not verified in this model for conformance. Activities for correcting and preventing defects are not shown.

Jabes cycle
JABES, Holistic simplistic alignment
Using the SIAR infographic is a mindset that is applicable in many situations. The diagonal lines are process representations:
  1. Ideate Assess (bottom right) is where it starts and ends for customers "over the shelf"
  1. Enable Plan (bottom left) the finishing of the pull request. The product(s) ordered to get build.
  1. Demand Backend (top left) starts the push. Constructing products according instruction in an assembly line.
  2. Delivery Frontend (top right) Verifying the products by order and quality before delivery.
Jabes cycle
In a detailed process the SIAR model is adding measurements and controls to processing. In data-mesh the same is done.
The SIAR model is a generalization of many well-known process frameworks. With the mindset to do this recursive and apply this to information processing results in a new vision. It is not focussing on technology but sets the focus on the goals and vision of organizations.
Using the infographic SIAR into processes is changing it to an orientation tool in an environment useable as a floorplan. The "JABES" proposal uses several related subsystems that have an orientation to form a new system.

F-1.2.4 Scope for systems optimization
Misunderstanding: ICT - Business
A three dimensional relationship model. The gap with all misunderstanding between ICT (Information Communication Technology) has been there since I started to work at the ICT. This is strange because attempts to solve this are failing. An attempt to understand this is using the Amsterdam Information model (AIM) with adjustments. Adjustments are in using words and in adding the shop-floor. The strategical level consultancy is often lacking the mission target realization by the "shop-floor". Operational support
Old word(s) New word Reason for changing words
Business Functional Working, implementing business goals. The mission is adding value. Avoiding the frame of only a cost-center. The value can be financial and non financial.
Information
Communication
Compliancy The business organization needs a lot of communication in expectations and instructions to get things done. This kind of communication is not the technical communication using technology. Using the word compliancy to align with the organization is more appropiate.
Technology Technical The word Technology is associated that buying it would solve all problems. Collected and gathered information (data) within the business is at best technical represented as "data".

Business ICT alignment & similarities.
People Confidentiality Going for a modern robust lean working environment there are a lot of attention points.
Process Integrity What is manufactured, assembled should have a level of quality.
Machines Availablity Tools should support People and processes in the best holistic fit.

Business ICT Shared negative experiences
Control Strategy There is a big gap to the "shopfloor".
Orchestration Tactical Personal goals are hidden placed above organizational ones.
Realization Opertional Suffering by micromanagement or misalignment with organisational goals set by the hierachical opinions.

Innovate - Operate, Devops -FolioPlan
All organisations wants to be: The organisation usually wants it all at the same moment with no cost investments and only wanting to see profits. A conflict of interests that will last forever.
The choice:
business quad conservative running as-is (vertical)
👉🏾 stable operations
👎🏾 no process changes, no innovation, legacy

disruptive innovation (horizontal)
👎🏾 unstable operations
👉🏾 process changes, innovations, transitions

Doing two major changes at the same time often results in unwanted surprises. Scheduling actions in time windows is sensible.
The DevOps double cycle model "DevOps" only covers two interest areas. This a very limited alignment of all possible relevant interaction.
When the Operational value stream is on one plane the enginering buidling of products flows is on another plane. A vertical double cycle is better than the usual horizontal.
The "DevOps" model: FolioPlan DevOps
Another double cycle model "PortfolioPlan" are the dichotomous counterparts for "DevOps". The "DevOps transitions are needing alignment wit the counterpart vice versa.
The "PortfolioPlan" gaps:

F-1.3 Gathering information for understanding

F-1.3.1 Guided web search information Agil
AGIL, systems thinking
The meaning of agile, the AGIL paradigm is a sociological scheme created by American sociologist Talcott Parsons in the 1950s. It is a systematic depiction of certain societal functions, which every society must meet to be able to maintain stable social life. ...
The AGIL paradigm is part of Parsons's larger action theory, outlined in his notable book The Structure of Social Action, in "The Social System" and in later works, which aims to construct a unified map of all action systems, and ultimately "living systems". Indeed, the actual AGIL system only appeared in its first elaborate form in 1956, and Parsons extended the system in various layers of complexity during the rest of his intellectual life. ...
Starting a conversation for an action.
The social system represent the integral part of the action system and is in this way only a subsystem within the greater whole of systems. For example the order of the cultural system vis-a-vis the AGIL functional scheme is:
  1. Cognitive symbolization
  1. Expressive symbolization.
  1. Moral-evaluative symbolization.
  1. Constitutive symbolization.
AGIL is an acronym from the initials of each of the four systemic necessities. The AGIL system is considered a cybernetic hierarchy and has generally the following order L-I-G-A, when the order is viewed from an "informational" point of view; this implies that the L function could "control" or define the I function (and the I the G and so on) approximately in the way in which a computer-game-program "defines" the game. ...
❗ The order is reversed, bottom up rtl starting for a goal to establish.
Also it is important to highlight that the AGIL system does not "guarantee" any historical system survival; they rather specify the minimum conditions for whether societies or action systems in principle can survive. Whether a concrete action system survive or not is a sheer historical question.
  1. Adaptation, or the capacity of society to interact with the environment. This includes, among other things, gathering resources and producing commodities to social redistribution.
  1. Goal Attainment, or the capability to set goals for the future and make decisions accordingly. Political resolutions and societal objectives are part of this necessity.
  1. Integration, or the harmonization of the entire society is a demand that the values and norms of society are solid and sufficiently convergent. This requires, for example, the religious system to be fairly consistent, and even in a more basic level, a common language.
  1. Latency, or latent pattern maintenance, challenges society to maintain the integrative elements of the integration requirement above. This means institutions like family and school, which mediate belief systems and values between an older generation and its successor.
❗ There are no dogma's axioma's other than those 4. Assumed is an autonomic behaviour.
These four functions aim to be intuitive. For example a tribal system of hunter-gatherers needs to gather food from the external world by hunting animals and gathering other goods. If these prerequisites are met, the tribe can sustain its existence.
Lean is another word with the same kind of intentions by another origin.
The word agile originates from Latin agilis, from agere "to drive, be in motion, do, perform". It lost the original meaning and intention in software development.
F-1.3.2 Relevant information by algorithms
Media usage - big data - web search
Algorithms in social media are an opportunity when the interest is kept clean for the intentions. Following persons, connecting many did gave me al lot of nice results. Instead of having hardly any relevant information it kept going on and ... some proposals initially not understood but being better and more relevant while not recognized at first review.

Not information that is well understandable for static and dynamic models with a strategy goal. That is something to get more insight for what it is about.

Strategy static and dynamic
Strategy dynamics The 'industry forces' paradigm was established most firmly by Michael Porter, (1980) in his seminal book 'Competitive Strategy', the ideas of which still form the basis of strategy analysis in many consulting firms and investment companies.
The essential problem is that tools explaining why firm A performs better than firm B at a point in time are unlikely to explain why firm B is growing its performance more rapidly than firm A. What is needed, is a set of tools that explain how performance changes over time, and how to improve its future trajectory – i.e. a dynamic model of strategy and performance.
A dichotomy: The static model of the Strategy Process:
  1. Doing a situation analysis: both internal and external; both micro-environmental and macro-environmental.
  2. Concurrent with this assessment, objectives are set. This involves crafting vision statements (long term), mission statements (medium term), overall corporate objectives (both financial and strategic), strategic business unit objectives (both financial and strategic), and tactical objectives.
  3. These objectives should, in the light of the situation analysis, suggest a strategic plan. The plan provides the details of how to obtain these goals.
This three-step strategy formation process is sometimes referred to as determining where you are now, determining where you want to go, and then determining how to get there. The next phase, according to this linear model is the implementation of the strategy.
The next phase of a static strategy model is a dynamic model.
The strategy process dynamics model:
The unplanned element comes from two sources : "emergent strategies" result from the emergence of opportunities and threats in the environment and "Strategies in action" are ad hoc actions by many people from all parts of the organization. These multitudes of small actions are typically not intentional, not teleological, not formal, and not even recognized as strategic. They are emergent from within the organization, in much the same way as "emergent strategies" are emergent from the environment. In this model, strategy is both planned and emergent, dynamic, and interactive. Five general processes interact. They are: ... But work in cybernetics by Ross Ashby and others suggests that instead of simple rules, adaptive self-stabilization in an ever-changing environment requires a double-loop system rather than a single loop.
❓ There is not anything mentioning the viable systems model (VSM).
VSM is a fractal approach of systems with many double-loops.
F-1.3.4 Universal systems releationships
sysbok ant network
Systems in systems network
The word that triggered attention is the attraction: Idef0. The source is a site for systems thinking, sysbok (SCIO).
Idef0 is the first standard to create Business Process Models. There are many more tools create for BPM. Holistic they are using many to many flows, in details the attempt is to split the flow into functional activities, swimming lanes.
Rather than attempting to define rigidly the key concepts in Systems Thinking, SysBoK is designed to explore relationships between these concepts, in particular which are Precedents to a Systems Thinking concept, and which are Dependent Derivatives.
What are the actors in the network?
Actor–network theory ( ANT ) is a theoretical and methodological approach to social theory where everything in the social and natural worlds exists in constantly shifting networks of relationships. It posits that nothing exists outside those relationships. All the factors involved in a social situation are on the same level, and thus there are no external social forces beyond what and how the network participants interact at present. Thus, objects, ideas, processes, and any other relevant factors are seen as just as important in creating social situations as humans.
ANT holds that social forces do not exist in themselves, and therefore cannot be used to explain social phenomena. Instead, strictly empirical analysis should be undertaken to "describe" rather than "explain" social activity. Only after this can one introduce the concept of social forces, and only as an abstract theoretical concept, not something which genuinely exists in the world.
It can more technically be described as a "material-semiotic" method. This means that it maps relations that are simultaneously material (between things) and semiotic (between concepts). It assumes that many relations are both material and semiotic.
The theory demonstrates that everything in the social and natural worlds, human and nonhuman, interacts in shifting networks of relationships without any other elements out of the networks.
ANT challenges many traditional approaches by defining nonhumans as actors equal to humans. This claim provides a new perspective when applying the theory in practice.

F-1.4 Curiosity for understanding, 🎭 systems

F-1.4.1 Systems thinking processes
What is systems thinking?
The basics of systems thinking (Youtube 2023 Systems thinking Basics by "My fliiped Learning" )
The holistic system: Holistic refers to the idea of considering something as a whole rather than just looking at its individual parts. In the context of systems thinking this means considering the entire system and all of its parts rather than just focusing on one specific part or aspect. The holistic approach recognizes that everything is interconnected and that the various parts of a system cannot be fully understood in isolation from one another. Instead it looks at the relationships between the parts and how they interact with each other to create the overall system.
Complexity refers to the degree to which a system is made up of many interconnected parts that interact in a non-linear fashion. In other words a complex system is one that is composed of many parts that are interconnected and influence each other in intricate and often unpredictable ways.
Flipped Learning Wheel Situations may be complex with many interconnected factors and variables at play and may involve multiple stakeholders with different perspectives and goals.
Situations of interest: Once you have determined your situation of Interest the next step is typically to gather more information about the situation. It can also be helpful to identify the goals or objectives that you hope to achieve in addressing the situation of Interest.
Boundaries in systems thinking refer to the limits or edges of a system beyond which the system does not extend. In other words boundaries define what is included within the system and what is excluded.
The viable systems model, VSM, is based on the idea that all complex systems whether they are organizations Societies or ecosystems are made up of interconnected parts that work together to achieve a common goal or purpose. The first step in creating a VSM is to identify the boundaries of the system being analyzed and to Define its purpose or goal. This might involve: Key steps in design thinking typically include empathizing with the needs of stakeholders by understanding their goals motivations and challenges defining the problem or opportunity in a clear and actionable way.

Flipped learning
Learning in a flipped setting
flipped-learning-guide Flipped learning is a pedagogical model where traditional instructional goals for what happens inside and outside of class are reversed and student learning becomes increasingly active.
When flipped, students acquire knowledge, develop comprehension, and have opportunities to assess their understanding outside of, and typically prior to, in-class meetings. This acquisition occurs through carefully designed, typically independent, and self-directed activities. During in-class meetings, instructors facilitate active learning, engage students, guide learning, and provide feedback as students work together to apply their new knowledge.
The flipped learning model can be used for a single session or an entire course.
Flipped learning wheel (FLW) (2023 researchgate, Zhanni Luo*, Billy O’Steen and Cheryl Brown).
A framework named the Flipped Learning Wheel (FLW) which contains the components and principles involved in an effective flipped learning class. The Flipped Learning Wheel was developed based on various theories, including instructional design theories, the use of technology for pedagogical uses and the Community of Inquiry model (Garrison, Anderson, & Archer, 1999).

F-1.4.2 💡 Systems thinking practices
The original Zachman idea is too far abstracted for the double meaning of logic and avoiding the ordering on both axis.
The Zachman Framework is not a methodology in that it does not imply any specific method or process for collecting, managing, or using the information that it describes.

Challenging is: ontology all levels in one pass.
Split up:
🤔 High level architectural functional design:
    (1) Logical, Conceptual Contextual.
🤔 Solution engineering, technical architecture:
    (2) Logical, Physical Detailed.

Six philosophical questions: What, Where, When, Who, How, Why Getting "Wich" content for cells in one of the two 3*6 matrices (W,W,W W,H,W):

What Inventory - Who Responsibility
Where Distribution - How Process
When Timing / Vision - Why Motivation

❓ At first glance, not relevant.
❗ Please review how these pages are setup (contents), how the floorplans were initiated, etc..
Why and Which are exchangeable.
There are several options for an ordinal with the 6W1h questions, the choice for that is context dependent. The context is setting a focus for what to adapt to, a subsystem has his own context.

F-1.4.3 🎯 Information - data a central asset
I have made this infographic beginning 2018. The goal was understanding to new ML (AI) approach. It is a combination of Crisp-dm and many more well known frameworks.

A hidden dichotomy, although this seems logical it is mixing up two different planes.

There are two evaluations moments for safety security, compliancy.
Becoming "data driven"
The process design in the dta driven infographic is a result of involvement at several Machine Learning (ML) projects. ML is a part of AI (Artificial Intelligence). I created this infographic in 2018 before the SIAR infographic.
The goal was changing and adjusting the widely used crisp-dm infographic in a full closed circle. The chosen orientation is: Reviewing this infographic with the very old classic developing and running programs (Cobol era). The principles are the same, only technical details are a little bit different.
The four stages during engineering a new product:
Operational support
Information driven Life Cycle - SIAR
Reviewing this infographic with "SIAR". The principles are the same although locations and technical details have changed. The SIAR infographic moved to hierarchical top into the center, the eye.

F-1.4.4 🤔 Management structure & hierarchy
The inverted hierarchical pyramid
The dichotomy of horizontal autonomy vs vertical lmiting the freedom. Servant Leadership: Breakthrough Ideas on Customer Service (James MacLennan 2020 )
The traditional org chart is all wrong. It puts the people that work directly with your customer at the lowest position on the pyramid. This makes the customer the least important person in the picture. Servant Leadership will flip that pyramid. What if your leaders saw their primary mission as support for those closest to the customer? ...
What kind of difference would that have on customer loyalty and satisfaction? There is another important idea that we all grew up with – something that dominates how we see the world and our place in it. Organizations are strict hierarchies; CEO at the top, supported by a team of Execs, and a progression of managers below. This structure is always drawn as shown – CEO at the top, with the organization cascading down the page.
....
Not "all wrong" showing authority system-3, but fails for not enough system-1 autonomy.

See right side.

Here is the secret … this entire structure is upside down! Why? Because it puts the people on the front lines – the folks that work directly with your customers – at the lowest position in this pyramid. This point of view makes the customer the least important person in this entire picture.
But what if we flipped the pyramid? What if the folks [formerly] at the top considered “service and support for those closest to our customer” to be their primary mission?

A flipped pyramid solves the autonomy but is failing for the authority for system-1.

Data monetizing journey

F-1.5 The journey in understanding

F-1.5.1 Analysing understanding a system: motivation
A motive: experiencing the portfolio gap
The situations of interest is the lack in a well defined managed portfolio for information systems supporting the current state and the change.
👉🏾 Symptoms and issues are: The journey in understanding the gap in managing portfolios is complex topic.
MIT90 MSS Morton
A motive: Not wanting frictions, dichotomies
There is that classic diamond model: Harold Leavitt's diamond model (1965) repeated with MIT90 M.S.S Morton (1991) have named the well-known interconnected antipodes: There is that desire of everything we are confronted with in our environment would become easily predictable obvious not more than complicated (cynefin). The variety with all the unpredictability and uncertainties in reality makes something like this hopelessly (VUCA workd).
👉🏾 The world we are in is a chaotic complex of complex systems. A conclusion is that we have not made any progress in the past 40 years.
F-1.5.2 System value stream for products, information
data lineage following the service cycle
Knowing what information from what source is processed into new information at a new location is lineage (derivation), "data lineage" .
Understanding changes in data requires understanding the data chain, the rules that have been applied to data as it moves along the data chain, and what effects the rules have had on the data. Data lineage includes the concept of an origin for the data—its original source or provenance—and the movement and change of the data as it passes through systems and is adopted for different uses (the sequence of steps within the data chain through which data has passed).
👉🏾 What is information about? When the product (good, service) is contained by information the flow of information is the flow of the product.
Pushing the metaphor, we can imagine that any data that changes as it moves through the data chain includes some but not all characteristics of its previous states and that it will pick up other characteristics through its evolution. Data lineage is important to data quality measurement because lineage influences expectations.
A motivated switch: use the similarities of information as a product to what we are used to of products (goods, service). There are more mature approaches for systems like the physical construction of building or some if the industrials.
The complete values stream cycle
There a many figures for a value stream. The limited focus goes often only to the assembly step of the product. Form inforamtion processes that is similar to only looking at the "business application" that is creating from information input sources the inormation product.
However, what it should cover is:
  1. Customer demand from a portfolio for offerings with the evaluation of wanting to deliver
  1. Evaluation of the supported portfolio and the orders in flow of products
  1. Gathering the complete set on information input, planning for what is when created and the creation of the product.
  2. Verfication of the product quality and finishing the product for a delivery
  1. Customer delivery conform the demand in the organisation perspective and
    verficiation the delivery is confrom demand in the customers perspective
All of these supported by related administrative tasks.
For easy understanding of the flow, a left to right direction of the product is preferred.
For a common cycle direction clockwise is preferred.

F-1.5.3 Foundation plan of a 3D system model
The seeds for a growing 3D fractal system
SIMF the foundation floor 0-1, a system in a nutshell: In a two dimensional nine plane with the several types of external influence at the edges (4) and the mentioned 5 activity types in the SIAR orientation there is a square. For a small organisation that simple two dimensional model is sufficient.
👉🏾 There are two axes:
  1. The flow of the product (horizontal):
    • Pull: from customer demand to start fulfilment.
    • Push: from backend to front-end
  2. Control of the performance in the flow (vertical):
    • Autonomy: The details of activities for work and durations.
    • Control: from organisation to technology.
      Overview of resource usage and achieved results.

Quick grow to fractals at viable systems
When the organisations grows the unmanageable complexity for human interactions will result in a split-off at functional specialisations. This the standard solution for decreasing complexity, the classic hierarchical approach for command & control as a result.
💡❗ In this growth the entropy should not get increased. More entropy will result in additional problems. Organisational entropy is increased by ignoring clear tasks/roles. The obvious ordering by only the human skills is increasing entropy.
👉🏾 The third axe for :
  1. tasks & roles for specialisations
At that third axis: Each area is possible a subsystem to be split for the same reason of growth. Aside the described functioning fractals there must be functionality fractals.
💡 It's a 3D structure with h a grey middle column as nervous system.

F-1.6 Applying system thinking the obvious

F-1.6.1 The meaning of data in viable systems
business rules, the data challenge
A Business View of Data and Data Quality The Four BRS Dimensions of Semantic Quality Business has a fundamental problem with data quality. In some places it’s merely painful; in others it’s near catastrophic. Perhaps we’ve been thinking about the problem wrong. The central flaw in the long-running discussion over data quality is literally its focus on ‘data’. Stored data is merely the system or database residue of things that have already happened in the business, a memory of past events. To truly fix ‘data quality’ problems requires a business perspective, a shift in the focus from data design or data cleansing, to the activity and knowledge of the business itself. Our sights should be set squarely on the context that produces the data. ...
Business rules are about business knowledge and business activity, not data – at least not directly.
(Extracted from Business Knowledge Blueprints: Enabling Your Data to Speak the Language of the Business, 2nd ed., by Ronald G. Ross, 2020, 288 pp,)

Dualism
business rules, understanding pupose
A shortlist: The four dimensions of BRS Semantic Quality get to root causes of ‘data quality’ problems, as well as of miscommunication in written or other business communications. Communicating about difficult subject matter is hard to begin with. Blind communication to people you can’t converse or interact with directly is the hardest of all. It requires order-of-magnitude sophistication in the techniques used to form the messages.
machine learning
F-1.6.2 Evolution: The way of making decisions
Solving problems questions for improving life
The real problem there are more questions without clear answers. It is intentionally to have 7w1h questions.
  1. whose task is defining the organizational goals and what are these?
  2. which internal requirements and public regulations are in scope?
  3. where will the activities being processed, what to do and what not?
  4. why ...
  5. what will be constructed and what is the required quality?
  6. how will the construction setup, how will it be engineered?
  7. who will be responsible accountable to fulfil the product requests?
  8. when it is the correct time to jump into the prodcut deliveries?
Support for decisions has changed with technology. One upon a time a human was doing all the calculations evaluations with information he could process. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing that, but not reflections on impact, outcomes.
Using techology support for decisions
How to teach AI to a ten year old (LI: Ajit Jaokar, 2025): (Part I) We can think of broadly four types of data driven decisions:
  1. Statistical Decisions: These are simple decisions based on averages and sampling to find characteristics of a larger population.
  2. Machine Learning Decisions: Here, the computer learns from examples. If it sees examples of spam or non spam emails, it can learn from examples to classify a new email as spam or non spam.
  3. Deep Learning Decisions: These are much more complex decisions often based on unstructured data. For example, a computer may be shown pictures of cats and determine the features of cat. It may then use those features to classify pictures of cats.
  4. Autonomous Decisions - AI: Finally, the computer becomes so smart that it can make decisions on its own. For example, you want to book a holiday to Greece, the system can autonomously break down the task of a holiday booking and implement the sub tasks ex booking a flight, booking a hotel etc
(Part II) Considering “Data driven Decisions” for stochastic processes where we aim to capture salient features through feature engineering and use optimization to improve a model evaluation metric. To achieve this goal, we implement a series of steps through a machine learning pipeline in an iterative manner.

F-1.6.3 The pipeline of information processing: ALC-V3
The information life cycle
Information processing follows the same patter whether it is: It can be very confusing when all of this get mixed up.
The most important requirement: goal and expectations should be clear.
The information life cycle has four basic manifestation stages with processing connections: The processing can be any combination of AI "data driven rules" of classic code created by "human driven rules". In the flow of processing there is no real difference. Aside these four there are additionals for verification and delivery.
In the push:
  1. After what is additional needed, the Landing, a first verification results in Staging.
  2. The Semantic retrieves information from one or more Staging artifacts and is verified.
  3. Processing from one or more Semantic artifacts into a product: Databank
    The product is verified for acceptable quality
  4. The product is finished for delivery and placed at a location for controlled transport.

Safety for transformations and materialisations
There is a dichotomy of materialised information and the transformations.
Materialised information (data) properties: Transformation (processing) properties: ❗ The safety for both is not about the same type of artifacts.
In the on / off boarding processes the defined agreed setting are applied. There are multiple processes for the different type of resource - staff that is processed.
In computer security, a DMZ or demilitarized zone (sometimes referred to as a perimeter network or screened subnet) is a physical or logical subnetwork that contains and exposes an organization's external-facing services to an untrusted, usually larger, network such as the Internet.
❗ The DMZ The safety for both is not about the same type of artifacts.

The operational information flow
The operational value stream in a Pull and Push in all steps looks complex but is simple when understood. The dichotomy of materialised information that is technical data and the transformations by processing is a continuously change in perspective. Both are equal important in the flow.
Architecting cybersecurity safety: There are four knowledge area's each of them dedicated for the process stage in the value stream.
The anatomy and physiology details are a next chapter. In a video:

Fractals splitting divide and conquer
reconnect into diverging by dichotomies
Seeing the marketing activities got that autonomous it has worn organisations into disfucntional parts it is strange seeing it has the same origin as many of the other changes.
The conclusion for this only can be that management has failed into better converging actvities.
Root-cause most likely are: The question: A simple manual attempt with all imperfections.

business vmap - layers cloud fucndament
reconnect into diverging by dichotomies
The world of ICT is full of technical buzz words. These buzz words do not help in a clear understanding. Closing the gap with a more understandable approach is.
Data, information, being processed while evaluated for important controls of the system. This is the moment of the truth when value of a system is generated. Too often this is seen as boring ICT by the organization, classified by them as just keeping the lights on.
The cloud buzz is hiding the needed technical machines as needed infrastructure. Infrastructure like fiber data communication is a fundament. When found it is in a well-protected areas in the bottom of a structure.

Personal interest off work
It is a persons choices and preferences outside of work that define personal life, including ones choice of hobbies, cultural interests, manner of dress, mate, friends, and so on.
Question: What would SIAR be in a personal private environment?
Question: Does personal interest harm organizations vice versa?
  1. Requests & Results, from personal wishes
    For all kind of wishes a financial budget is very often needed. The immediate question: there is no natural involvement for working at an organisation. How to solve that?
    • The amount of payment could be a way for getting involvement.
      Abuse of high payments will harm the organisation and other workers.
    • Engagement using public admiration is an alternative with no direct financial impact.
      Abuse will create long lasting distrust harm the organisation and other workers.
  1. Planning enabling The simple private planning is not working, enjoying life.
    When I am off and it is for a longer period that could be a holiday. On my holidays, I´m charging the batteries.
    I can get a telephone call, asking for help, from someone at the office. After the support question handling off, the statement of my holiday at a nice location. With the modern smartphone tooling you will get a picture. This has become an anecdotal story with old friends.
A place where I can be is like this one: nowork 01
  1. Running: personal private environment
    This is running, organizing all what is needed for the private environment. Taking care of the persons around, handling illness, getting the food, managing the house. Once upon a time this was a full time job.
  2. Delivery Private goals usually are not for the public.
    There are exceptions when these are also social goals doing social discussions or for sharing knowledge. In the case the there is a private company that is using the private area more is shared than when it is just a commercial enterprise.
Sharing knowledge, seeing an opportunity to improve something everybody would like to get improved. Don't assume it is free to copy.

F-2 What is Jabes, Why Jabes, Pitches Jabes Jabsa SIMF

Confused-2

F-2.1 Control in organisations at fractals

F-2.1.1 A sketch for a map what is in scope
Control & Command in autonomy
The challenge is understanding and knowing what to improve in the system. It is not always clear what the options are neither what the problems to solve are. Listening to reactions when the Viable System ViSM is introduced to people working for aligning processes changes is an eye opener. VSM has two relevant meanings, Viable Systems (ViSM) and value stream (VaSM). When both are in scope confusion is to avoid.
Some of the questions were: The way it is always has been done is: the classical hierarchy of the manager dictates it all without much autonomy. An additional challenge is that the financial salary is associated with the classical hierarchy.
What is in this game: Thinking in how things are working is very different to "who should do what part of what part of work".
The dichotomy organisation vs technology
The question in this is where to start for better understanding, better improvements.
Both organisation and technology have their own kind of world by natural differences. Both have their own system bur are dependent of each other for a purpose of the whole.
Switching into a another approach: not focussing on what could be in the dependencies but on options in the system to change some thing for the better.
The question of what and how to start for understanding and changes: The visualisation is a circle by logical dependencies. The are two other ways in grouping actvities for coordinaton as viable systems. SIMF improve org goal framework

F-2.1.3 Data driven: customer service
The operational cycle by portfolio specifications
The operational process (goods, services) is by following portfolio specifications. After the demand (pull) a push (delivery) is done with two possible outcomes: successful fulfilment that is accepted or not. That outcome evolution is set by the customer, not by the supplier.
The operational process is monitored audited to get knowledge for what to improve what to change. Operational instructions guidelines are to be found parts of a portfolio system.
Issue: there is no framework nor technical solution for this. Jabes is a proposal for and a framework and technical solutions supporting the framework.

Triggers for operational processing adjustments
There is a resistance for change when there is an assumption that an optimum in all conditions is achieved. To avoid the trap of becoming outdated irrelevant there must be some measurements whether those assumptions are correct.
Operational processing has the attribute that the product result is known by a product specification. A list of operational processing measurements: There is a good predictability, certainty in what is possible by measurements.
It was done before there are experiences.
F-2.1.4 Data driven: Change - Innovation
The engineering cycle changing portfolio specifications
When there is no monitoring and no change for improvements the likely result will be an unusable product (good, service). Improvements need to have a control mechanism for what to do and when to do engineer the changes and whether an how to deploy those. This is what portfolio management is about. There are only some generic hints on this how to do it.
Issue: there is no real standard framework nor technical solution for this.

F-2.2 Focus on operating existing products

F-2.2.1 🚧 Using the operational working environment
Doing what has always been done
Homeostasis is the state of steady internal physical and chemical conditions maintained by living systems. This is the condition of optimal functioning for the organism and includes many variables. ...
Homeostasis is brought about by a natural resistance to change when already in optimal conditions, and equilibrium is maintained by many regulatory mechanisms; it is thought to be the central motivation for all organic action.
All homeostatic control mechanisms have at least three interdependent components for the variable being regulated: The receptor is the sensing component that monitors and responds to changes in the environment, either external or internal.
A social system is behaving similar.
The use of sovereign power, codes of conduct, religious and cultural practices and other dynamic processes in a society can be described as a part of an evolved homeostatic system of regularizing life and maintaining an overall equilibrium that protects the security of the whole from internal and external imbalances or dangers.
Healthy civic cultures can be said to have achieved an optimal homeostatic balance between multiple contradictory concerns such as in the tension between respect for individual rights and concern for the public good, or that between governmental effectiveness and responsiveness to the interests of citizens.

Using data for information
Data preparation follows the classic Extract Load Transform (ELT) steps for defined receptors. A control centre follows a model of the system. The question is what is an appropriate model of the system?
For any operational system, there are three aspects for planning: There will be surprises in what is planned and how it is going. Solving them wihtout any escalations are the operational quality challenges.
There are three areas intensive activities (circles):

F-2.3 Focus on changing & innovating products

F-2.3.1 🚧 Changing the operational working environment
Adjusting Risk as what always has been
An actuary may refer to risk homeostasis, where (for example) people who have anti-lock brakes have no better safety record than those without anti-lock brakes, because the former unconsciously compensate for the safer vehicle via less-safe driving habits. ...
It has also been suggested that ecological crises are an instance of risk homeostasis in which a particular behavior continues until proven dangerous or dramatic consequences actually occur.
Cybersecurity at information technology should be risk driven.
Risk compensation is related to the broader term behavioral adaptation which includes all behavior changes in response to safety measures, whether compensatory or not. However, since researchers are primarily interested in the compensatory or negative adaptive behavior the terms are sometimes used interchangeably. ...
Risk homeostasis is a controversial hypothesis, initially proposed in 1982 by Gerald J. S. Wilde, a professor at Queen's University in Canada, which suggests that people maximise their benefit by comparing the expected costs and benefits of safer and riskier behaviour and which introduced the idea of the target level of risk.
He proposed four constituents to a person's calculations relating to risk:
There is no mentioning related to safe information processing: cybersecurity is problematic.

F-2.4 Managing organisational systems

F-2.4.1 🚧 Organisations in continuous construction
The now and the future, certaintity of change
Only focussing on the now will be a fail in continuity in the future. At that third axis Floorplan : There is a projection for the organisation and technology to a product and there is a projections from suppliers to service the customer. We are not used to how a complicated structure of maybe six dimension is possible projected in three. Both projection perspectives in three dimensions at different locations is possible the same object. These are the backend and frontend services.
Effects of change on entropy
The functional specialisation when splitting up for size in growth has effects depending on what is split off. entropy Usefulness data stories, information, insight
The image compared raw data to LEGO bricks and a fully assembled LEGO house to a data story. I was able to isolate the origin of the first four steps to a visual created by Hot Butter Studio co-founders, Brandon Rossen and Karyn Lurie. Their image focused on infographics and was meant to be read as “an infographic is data sorted, arranged, and presented visually.” While I like the overall concept, there are a couple of minor flaws and a major omission that must be addressed to better represent the process of moving from raw data to a data story. My greatest issue with the original image is it is missing a crucial step: analysis. Just because you've visualized data, it doesn't mean you have found an insight.
If you only have interesting observations but no insights, you aren't ready to tell a data story yet. You need to progress from 'what' to 'why,' which is only possible with analysis.

F-2.4.2 Top-down fractals, C&C into the future
SIMF The organisation as a whole: ambiguity at the same horizontal plane.
When C&C gets more mature there are options in proactive starting activities by risk evaluated changes (system-4) for the future.
What gets little attention and what gets ignored is the identity, ethos, ground rules. These should be an indispensable part of the vision.

Logicalframe Why how what matroesjka scio
The fractal propagation of Why How What
The "Why" or purpose, identity is associated with a "How" and "What" in activities. The next level in a logical is using that, but the context is changed. This can only work when at a level the activities are only detailed to what is needed at that level.
This kind of micromanagement is not mentioned as a problematic pattern in VSM but it surely is.
Micromanagement is excessive and unhealthy need of control, where a manager closely observes and monitors the work of their subordinates, often with a lack of delegation. It involves constant surveillance and making decisions without consultation, leading to a direct impact on the autonomy and creativity of the team.
F-2.4.3 Bottom-up fractals, C&C into the future
Bottom-up generating three system-1 types
The dichotomy Technical autonomy vs organisational control is not a common historical topic. Mediators act as neutral facilitators, assisting in communication, negotiation, and finding common ground to reach a peaceful resolution. It is a diplomatic tool used to de-escalate tensions, prevent conflicts, and promote cooperation.
Seeing the two different side that are a lot of frictions to manage: ❗ Interesting are the three system-1 types and a revered order in two lines:

First order cybernetics is concerned with that which is the object of our attention, giving rise to the view of cybernetics as being positivistic and conducive to the approaches of science.

F-2.5 The Ecosystem of information systems

F-2.5.1 💡 Jabes, portfolio management, position in ViSM
The scope, purpose of Jabes in a nutshell
The situation is that we are feeling lost. There is a promise someone could help us, but there is long path to go. The real question in this: Why don't we have a system where all this kind of information can be found? A name for that system is Jabes.
The DevSecOps and PortfolioPLan cycles in Jabes
Modelling at a very generic abstracted level there are those four floors and another four in another projection perspective. There are two floors where one is representing the operational value stream and another the change of the product (good, service).
The connection between those is solving the interactions four area's in the neighbourhood in that projection. When the Operational value stream is on one plane the engineering building of products flows is on another plane. A vertical double cycle is better than the usual horizontal.
FolioPlan DevOps
The DevOps double cycle model "DevOps" only covers two interest areas. This a very limited alignment of all possible relevant interaction.
❗ Another double cycle model "PortfolioPlan" are the actvities in the dichotomous counterparts for "DevOps".
The "PortfolioPlan" gaps:
The Backend and Frontend service cycles in Jabes
🤔 For simplifying an unit the offloading of the operational construction into a value stream was chosen. When the product (service, good) is changing fast and the interaction to the customer is relative stable, this focus makes sense. The result is a structure in four floors with support at the bottom for the now and the future in a floor approach at the top.
🤔 Another option is to start to offload the administrative support for the now and the future. When the product (service, good) is not changing fast but the interaction to the customer is, this focus makes sense. The result will be structure in four floors with operational execution at the bottom and the technology change at the top. ➡ Both approaches are valid and should be modelled in equality. When both are changing fast both are needing good management.
❗ Two addtional double cycles should be there using backend, frontend projections.

Auditing & monitoring services
These are activities that are a source for internal adjustments using control feedback loops. They are systems on their own in the system as a whole. When there are four positions with all system fucntions (1,3,4,5) are defined for role/tasks these can function as viable components.
For feedback a 3+ indication is used in VSM. I only use a system-2: the regulator.
Duality Process Information in flows
Analysing systems starting at micro-level
Analysing systems is usually done by looking at a complex macro-level situation and trying to understand that by simplifying. There is that continuous duality change for information vs process.
Starting at a micro level, anatomical: The two components in the processing units have each a full classification in six attributes for safe usage.
F-2.5.2 💡 The Jabes blue ocean for modelling ViSM
The Jabes idea proposal
Jabes is:
  1. A generic framework, supported by usable tools for all the administrative knowledge.
  2. Administrative knowledge labelled in a unique way that make it useable for trade.
  3. Auditing for level of maturity of the product knowledge and the organisation.

Building up Jabes
🤔 The building of Jabes will be a lot of pioneering. A bootstrap approach while developing the product is possible. There are several ideas worked out into more details. The whole of Jabes is needing several persons to realize for the magnitude and scope.
🤔 Needed is a team with more competencies I have.
Idea for composing a team: 🤔 Some properties to implement are: There are artifacts mentioned that should not part of the venture building the product.
These two artifacts with the jabes framework should be isolated into foundations.
Market equivalents Jabes
There are companies that are doing something that seems similar at first sight but a closer look it is not anything like Jabes. There is a blue ocean, many opportunities.
F-2.5.3 🎭 Defining, maintaing the model and the ViSM
Exporting, importing Jabes content for a ViSM
🤔 All content of product should be abel to get exported and imported in a trade assumption. The ownership or approved usage are attributes in that possibility in trade assumption.

Defining Jabes Portfolio naming standards
🤔 Using an uniform product identification enables trade and exchange while exporting and importing the database containing an information product conforming the Jabes metadata model.
Following a naming convention schema an identification could be like:
  PPIC:ITC-00-000-001:ACT:ScoreNewCust-03

Defining Jabes Metadata model
The framework and metadata model with ontology has the goal of maintaining it as open standard. A foundation is the best option for this. The metamodel covers all elemements in three layers, servicing the life cycle stages. Innovation or solving known issues needs a defined "backlog". The "backlog" items should be made clear enough and well understood to define requirements.
🤔 When the transtion is finished, the product consolidates with specifications.

F-2.6 Applying system thinking at complexity

F-2.6.1 Proposals, pitches from the SIMF anatomy
Awareness of positions
Leaving the industrial age and going into the information age is expecting more power at the edges, needing awareness of position and situation by stakeholders.
  1. 💡👁❗ Geo-mapped roles idea: defining the organisation
    Goal: helping organisations in the mapping of what they are doing using the generic cubicle.
    Activity: the high level abstraction of the cubicle making more relevant in their business world. Customization for the position awareness is needed.
  2. 💡👁❗ persons ⇄ geo-maps idea: organise who is who in geo-mapped roles.
    Goal: helping organisations in organising, clearing up accountabilities responsibilities for persons and roles using the customized cubicle.
    Activity: Using the customized cubicle with names helps in to see the need for understanding and recognizing the logical counterparts. A person can be named at many roles. For very big organisations this will be hardly the case, at start-ups with a very few persons the same person, name, will popup everywhere.
These two ideas are understandable business cases, achievable opportunities.
Awareness of the orgnisation system and the components
Awareness of position and situation by stakeholders and having a power for decision at the edges opens new challenges for helping organisations. In the information age there is a shift in powers.
The required communication for defining sharing the expectations and goals clear is not easy.
  1. 💡👁❗ Communication flows idea: useful interactions, understanding.
    Goal: helping organisations defining master data, the mapping of a shared vocabulary, language in aspect of the customized cubicle.
    Activity: There are preferred ways in how to communicate with logical counterparts and what language and/or visuals are positive for achieving effective results.
  2. 💡👁❗ Profitability flows idea insight for: value streams, theory of constraints.
    Goal: helping organisations in a mindset change to accept the new change approach.
    Activity: Constraints, waste, missing respect for people, insufficient information's by closed loops are improvement options are issues to discuss and solve.
These two ideas are understandable business cases but are with uncertainties by the impact for the required changes in mindsets. Unlearn learn is hard.
Changes at the floor level for processes
The 1-2 process floor is the operational value stream serviced by the foundation 0/1.
Doing a change at foundation for execution is requiring: These are different steps in non-trivial systems where safety continuity is important.
  1. 💡👁❗ Technology changes idea: improve functionality with profitability.
    Goal: help in understanding the assembly line and how to optimize this.
    Activity: Focussing on the operational assembly machines the technology that is used. That technology can be improved by the way they are used or being replaced for other options.
  2. 💡👁❗ Safety changes idea: improve safety not hurting functionality.
    Goal: good practice safety, cyber security, in a risk based value setting acknowledging mandatory legal obligations for the whole local organisational system.
    Activity: When focussing on the assembly part of operations machines technology is used. Cyber security, the safety of using technology can be improved. The assembly part is not the only that needed to be safe but the risk are very likely different. Segmentation in the important lines in the customized cubicle should give help in strategic decisions.
These ideas are business understandable but when going for realisations will get into manage challenges at more complex situations to get solved.
Opportunities for the methodology of doing changes, how managing products
Leaving the industrial age and going into the information age is a direction with a overwhelming number of products and each of those products can be overwhelming in the number of components with specifications. A system that is capable of managing that all is a missing link. A start is describing what it should do.
  1. 💡👁❗ Portfolio registration idea: Have a portfolio with product specifications.
    Goal: Help organisations in documenting understanding the the products in their portfolio by the specifications of the products.
    Activity: Getting an inventory of the value streams and reverse engineer the product for understanding what the intentions and specifications are.
  2. 💡👁❗ Managed Portfolios idea: use a tool, product that manages the complete product lifecycle.
    Goal: Help organisations managing the changing portfolio from suggestions, backlog, to requirements, to validations to specifications.
    Activity: There is no product in the market for this. There should be created a standard for the product structure in the complete lifecycle so all activities are easy understandable created while the needed documentation is created with minimal effort.
These ideas are goals organisations are searching for, have a desire for, but by not being available in an easy understandable way. Everbody is getting lost in isolated partial siloed approaches.

F-3 Jabes SIMF pocesses, Closed loops & Transitions

Confused-2

F-3.1 Authorisations for: People processes machines

F-3.1.1 🎭 State of cyber security processes
Issue: on-boarding off-boarding
From a advisory board in information processing topic safety, security for governmental organisations describing processes.
The scope what it is about. Logical access security includes the set of guidelines, procedures, control processes and facilities that are necessary for providing access to information systems, operating systems, networks, mobile devices and teleworking of an organisation.
Physical access security includes the set of guidelines, procedures, control processes and systems that are necessary for providing physical access to sites, buildings and spaces.
So far so good, than:
ER model user persons
Issue: Role Based Access Control RBAC
Authorization models usually manage user access and are based on departmental structures, hierarchies, and employee work roles. In the absence of an authorization model, administrators struggle with defining permissions. Role-based access control (RBAC) defines access in the form of roles and their associated tasks. A role is a set of entitlements and capabilities that define what an account can do.
Although it seems logical there are many misconceptions, these are:
  1. Seeing it as a HR process for the HR department. HR would be in the lead for safety including cyber security. HR being accountable responsible for all kind of stuff in facilities and technology is nonsense.
  2. The focus on a hierarchical siloed organisation structure where the manager of the moment at some position should solve everything and anything.
  3. The not logical split in: Logical stuff and Physical stuff in the boarding processes. It should be one process in the system functioning as a system with a single accountability point.
  4. The handover for what really matters in safety security to technology and facilities without notion of being involved. This is throwing over a wall responsibilities ad challenges to solve to others that are not accountable.
The contradiction becomes more clear when asking, who is controlling:
F-3.1.2 🎭 State of cyber security components
Functional, Service, Machine different type of Accounts
From a advisory board in safety, security guide to cyber security measures (ncsc nl 2007-2024)
Control who has access to your data and services. Role-based access control can make rights management easier.
Minimize rights in safety security risk evaluations for what is needed.
The allocation of minimal rights is also called the principle of least privilege. This includes limiting the use of management privileges as well.
Detailed actions for employees.
In addition, make sure that access to data and services is personal, with each employee having their own user account. Change default passwords of equipment and systems upon installation or commissioning.
Make sure you have processes in place for the entry, exit and internal movement of employees.
Detailed actions for special situations.
Deactivate service accounts, and activate them only when maintenance is performed. ...
Implement multi-factor authentication for accounts that are: The use of multi-factor authentication prevents attackers from gaining access to an account by guessing or figuring out the password. Attackers can for example obtain these passwords by carrying out a phishing attack.

Non-organizational users vs organizational users
The NIST SP.800-53r5 pdf uses different words, is not explicit in all kind of account types. There are a lot of other detailed controls describing practices.
Non-organizational users include information system users other than organizational users explicitly covered by IA-2. In accordance with the E-Authentication E-Government initiative, authentication of non-organizational users accessing federal information systems may be required to protect federal, proprietary, or privacy-related information (with exceptions noted for national security systems). ...
Organizations use risk assessments to determine authentication needs and consider scalability, practicality, and security in balancing the need to ensure ease of use for access to federal information and information systems with the need to protect and adequately mitigate risk. ...

F-3.2 Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity

F-3.2.1 The organisation types mess and mixed status
A complex in different models
There are several ways to organise the work to organise the hierarchy. tbm 333 lean graph theory If you've followed my work over the years, you know that I frequently mention ideas from Lean, such as I frequently recommend Mary and Tom Poppendieck's book The Lean Mindset: Ask the Right Questions.
But something has been nagging at me. This has become especially relevant at my day-job where we work to model company operating systems for our design partners. We have to decide when to be opinionated, and when to let customers "model anything".

Switching to dependencies in graph Models
Key Lesson: Everyone can learn from Lean, but they need to consider context carefully.
Of course, humans, organizations, and product development are messy endeavors. You often combine models to make sense of things and get things done. You have all three models in play simultaneously—interacting with each other at different resolutions, across different timeframes, and with varying degrees of overlap. It can be dangerous to imagine systems as "nested" (vs. woven together, etc.), but for explanatory purposes, consider that different models are at play as you zoom in from the organization to the team.

Assumptions a source of mistakes
An easy faulty assumption: don't expect it all at the same level same approach.
"So What?" (end of tbm333)
F-3.2.2 Manage decisions, logical segmentations
Cynefin abstracted four quadrant six ordered actions
The more we are convinced of our own right, the less we convince others. Because architecture is not about being right – it's about creating a safe space for other perspectives.
The key is not in explaining, but in asking questions: The paradox: to make your point, you first have to let go of your point. Because only when people feel understood, they are open to new perspectives.
Cynefin Abstacted GvanSanten
Putting the cynfin into an abstracted quadrant and mentioning six actvities is a nice fit in my usual orientation. The four distincive actions are:
Consideration model segmentation
The Zoning consideration model is an abstraction of an IT landscape, in which standard zones are recognized. A zone is a demarcated network of IT facilities, in which data can be freely exchanged. Data exchange with other zones occurs via defined interfaces. ...
If one layer is breached, the next security layer in this structure prevents business processes and data from being directly accessed from the untrusted zone. The layering is also based on the step-by-step communication from untrusted to trusted and vice versa.
Although it seems logical there are several misconceptions, these are:
  1. The assumption that code is developed in a very isolated way is wrong.
    • Developers are or should be the ones understanding the system, the production.
    • Operational production information is needed at developmnet to be able to improve production processes. Being data driven, using AI, doing monitoring, doing auditing, is based on this. Without this there is no control possible.
  2. The awareness of this implies: The ALC-V3 model covers all of the old and new development, engineering methodologies.
  3. There is no zone separation for the critical primary processes and the supporting office taks. When the primary task are physical (OT), this mix with office work is a no-go.
  4. Not mentioned the most critical for segmentation: the identity service (LDAP AD).
  5. For more robustness: network segmentation is an addtional logical access plan.
This becomes more clear when asking, who is accountable for what resources, which processes.

Limiting the ambiguity and meaning of the word process: Process model
If we test the 'processes' from all current frameworks, standards, and reference architectures against these 10 requirements, it can be demonstrated that they all describe combinations of people, process and technology: the what, the who and the how. Therefore, they all fail the very first of the 10 requirements. They actually describe practices, and practices are not processes: practices are derived from processes by adding the who and the how to the what. ...

F-3.4 Changing organisational systems

F-3.4.1 💡 The organisation system complexity
The origin for the word cybernetics
Norbert Wiener was an American mathematician who established the science of cybernetics. He attained international renown by formulating some of the most important contributions to mathematics in the 20th century. ...
In 1948 his book Cybernetics; or, Control and Communication in the Animal and the Machine was published.
For a scientific book it was extremely popular, and Wiener became known in a much broader scientific community. Cybernetics is interdisciplinary in nature; based on common relationships between humans and machines, it is used today in control theory, automation theory, and computer programs to reduce many time-consuming computations and decision-making processes formerly done by human beings.
He was not the only one. The Cwarel Isaf Institute was founded to make the life's work of Stafford Beer available to society. The word "cybernetics" comes from the Greek term "kybernetes", which means "helmsman".
Unpredictability and complexity
The human wish for absolute predictability: Laplace's demon Discoveries and theories after that, suggest that some elements of Laplace's original writing are wrong or incompatible with our universe. For example, irreversible processes in thermodynamics suggest that Laplace's "demon" could not reconstruct past positions and moments from the current state.
Chaos theory is sometimes pointed out as a contradiction to Laplace's demon:
it describes how a deterministic system can nonetheless exhibit behavior that is impossible to predict: as in the butterfly effect, minor variations between the starting conditions of two systems can result in major differences.
Double pendulum The doubt for the chaos theory bypasses the problem that an exact deterministic measurement is impossible, the Heissenberg question is not easily accepted by humans. There are more things to see of chaotic behavior.
The double pendulum undergoes chaotic motion, and clearly shows a sensitive dependence on initial conditions. The image to the right shows the amount of elapsed time before the pendulum flips over, as a function of initial position when released at rest.
Parametric plot for the time evolution of the angles of a double pendulum. Note that the graph resembles Brownian motion.

Who is in the lead?
Prioritization Accountability Autonomy (Substack John Cutler)
If you don't provide your product's investment and governance framework, one will be provided to you. And the person providing that framework (e.g., finance, sales, or marketing) will not create a framework that is friendly to making great products.
You must dictate the game, or the game will be dictated to you. ...
The result is a mess of poorly maintained features and products, a mountain of debt, a big team—hey, you needed all those people to build all that shiny new stuff—and a lot of people asking you about ROI, and how to keep costs down. In this model, you're playing the internal software development contractor game. ...
Change the game by moving teams from merely delivering features or projects to becoming stewards of investment and growth. That game makes sustainable, differentiated growth the goal. When you generate profits or achieve sustainability, you can fund your growth, just like a successful startup in its later stages. You control the growth of your product, make strategic decisions, and guide its trajectory in line with your vision.

F-3.4.2 💡 The good regulator theorem, needing a model
Understanding of the word model
The meaning of "a model" in a good regulator (Conant-Ashby).
Thus, in the working models, as in the static, we can readily obtain examples that deviate more and more from the obvious model to the most extreme types of transformation, without the appearance of any natural boundary dividing model from non-model.
What is described is what these days (2025) is indicated as: "digital twin".
The meaning of "a model" in the AI hype (2025).
What is described is what was previous (in the 80's) indicated as "programming".
Every good regulator of a system must be a model of that system
Fixing The Good Regulator Theorem (lesswrong John Wentworth) a review from the AI hype adapts perspective.
From Conant-Ashby (1970):
The design of a complex regulator often includes the making of a model of the system to be regulated. The making of such a model has hitherto been regarded as optional, as merely one of many possible ways. In this paper a theorem is presented which shows, under very broad conditions, that any regulator that is maximally both successful and simple must be isomorphic with the system being regulated. Making a model "digital twin" is thus necessary. ...
It should be noticed that in this formulation there is no restriction to linearity, to continuity, or even to the existence of a metric for the sets, though these are in no way excluded.
Several types of measurements:
A third criterion for success is to consider whether the entropy H(Z) is sufficiently small.
The entropy measure of scatter has the advantage that it can be applied when: In this paper we shall use the last measure, H(Z), and we define ‘successful regulation’ as equivalent, to ‘H(Z) is minimal’.
The difference with well known simple regulators.
Error-controlled regulation is in fact a primitive and demonstrably inferior method of regulation. The regulations used by the higher organisms evolve progressively to types more effective in using information about the causes (at D) as the source and determiner of their regulatory actions.
The lesserwrong review gets into the original intention.
When should a regulator use a model internally? We have four key conditions: good regulator Conceptually, because we don't know what game we're going to play, we need to keep around all the information potentially relevant to any possible game. The minimum information which can be kept, while still keeping all the information potentially relevant to any possible game, is the Bayesian posterior on system state S.
There's still a degree of freedom in how we encode the posterior on S (that's the "isomorphism" part), but the "model" M definitely has to store exactly the posterior.

Structuring the cybersecruity
Cybersecurity decision diagrams (2024: Sarah Fluchs)
Cyber-physical systems (CPS) that integrate computation and physical components are part of the solutions for many problems of our time like the shift towards renewable en-ergies, an aging population, or mobility. However, they are fragile, especially if misused for purposes out of their specification – for example in a cyber-attack. Therefore, considering security during CPS design just as functional aspects, “security by design”, is gaining the attention of policymakers around the globe. Regulations like the EU Cyber Re-silience Act (CRA), security by design is mandated.
This leaves CPS engineers with a new task. Not only do they have to consider cyberse-curity, but they also need to communicate their cybersecurity decisions to auditors and authorities, users and operators, product owners and managers, and engineers from other domains or organizations that also contribute to CPS design.

F-3.4.3 💡 Simple local regulators for components
PID control
The closed loop pid controller
When there is a measurement control adjustment becomes a known theory. However this theory is not simple at all. PID control (wikipedia) In theory, a controller can be used to control any process ...
Note limitations:
It becomes quick unpredictable when the limitations are not met.
Closed Loop management information systems
The feedback, verification of results with intentions, goals, is the beating hart of a system. BIDM BI analytics is integrated or not in the business process can strongly affect the decision making process. Hence, we consider this category to be a very important one when delimiting a maturity stage
  1. initiation user driven, process driven
  2. process integration (data centric - BI analytics is usually supported by a data warehouse, process centric - BI analytics is integrated in the business processes)
  3. processing model (store and analyze; analyze and store)
  4. event stream processing
  5. "closed-loop" environment
Business Intelligence Development Model

Although having the mindset set for BI (Business Intelligence) it is very generic.

For management information systems the highest maturity level is aligning the vision mission with what is happening.

F-3.4.4 💡 Complex holistic regulators for systems
numerical weather model
The weather model 101
Numerical weather prediction
An atmospheric model is a computer program that produces meteorological information for future times at given locations and altitudes. Within any modern model is a set of equations, known as the primitive equations, used to predict the future state of the atmosphere. ... The equations used are nonlinear partial differential equations which are impossible to solve exactly through analytical methods, with the exception of a few idealized cases. Therefore, numerical methods obtain approximate solutions. ...
In 1963, Edward Lorenz discovered the chaotic nature of the fluid dynamics equations involved in weather forecasting. Extremely small errors in temperature, winds, or other initial inputs given to numerical models will amplify and double every five days, making it impossible for long-range forecasts—those made more than two weeks in advance.

CMM maturity
Modelling an organisation similar to the weather model
Local optimizations are failing in optimizing the system as a whole. Evaluating the organisations by how:
  1. visions & missions are set and achieved (people)
  2. the operations and changes in operations are managed (processes)
  3. used technology for achieving the missions in lean processes (technology)
Will give the option for a holostic maturity level. For predicting the future of an organisation. It is possible to create "digital twins" that are predicting the change for states of the organisation similar to the weather model. It will cover not only the financial results for a moment in time but for all what is evaluated to be relevant.
A new challenge: the defined interactions in the antomy will be different at each organisation.

F-3.5 Innovating organisational systems

F-3.5.1 💡 Fundaments for a model of a system
Functional - non-functionals
Non-functionals and functionals are better in the Zachman logical order. An example of usuale six ordered categories:
  1. What is it made of? ➡ Bills of Material,
  2. How does it work? ➡ Functional Specs,
  3. Where are the components positioned? ➡ Geometry
  4. Who is responsible for what? ➡ Operating Instructions,
  5. When do things happen? ➡ Timing Diagrams, and
  6. Which choices to happen? ➡ Design Objectives.
Changing the context for six questions but have a ordering is set by the situation.
The ordering in the categorization has the following advantages:
Categories in: Functional - non-functionals
Aspects for functionals and non-functionals are closely related but differ in the perspective from the organisation or technology. functional vs non-functional requirements A start for several aspects: a
Definition Describes what the system should do, i.e., specific functionality or tasks. Describes how the system should perform, i.e., system attributes or quality.
👁 Functional Requirements Non-Functional Requirements
Purpose Focuses on the behavior and features of the system. Focuses on the performance, usability, and other quality attributes.
Scope Defines the actions and operations of the system. Defines constraints or conditions under which the system must operate.
Examples User authentication, data input/output, transaction processing. Scalability, security, response time, reliability, maintainability.
Measurement Easy to measure in terms of outputs or results. More difficult to measure, often assessed using benchmarks or SLAs.
Impact on Development Drives the core design and functionality of the system. Affects the architecture and overall performance of the system.
Focus on User Needs Directly related to user and business requirements. Describes how the system should perform, i.e., system attributes or quality.
Documentation Typically documented in use cases, functional specifications, etc. Documented through performance criteria, technical specifications, etc.
Evaluation Can be tested through functional testing (e.g., unit or integration tests). Evaluated through performance testing, security testing, and usability testing.
Dependency Determines what the system must do to meet user needs. Depends on how well the system performs the required tasks.

"Design for system innovations and transitions: a conceptualframework integrating insights from sustainablity science andtheories of system innovations and transitions" (researchgate: 2015 A.Idil Gaziulusoya,*, Han Brezet)
It is increasingly acknowledged that, in order to achieve sustainability, there is an urgent need for radicaland transformative restructuring of socio-technical systems that meet our needs. Transitions and system innovations cover not only product and process innovations but also changes in user practices, markets, policy,regulations, culture, infrastructure, lifestyle and management of firms and have significant implicationsfor design and innovation activity aiming to contribute to the societal endeavour of achieving sustain-ability.
Even though theory on system innovations and transitions is now extensive, it provided explanations regarding how companies and design and innovation activities fit into the big and long-termpicture of system innovations and transitions only to a certain extent. ...

F-3.5.4 💡 The future of organisational systems
Leaving the traditional bureaucratic organisation whose efficiency is built on the principles of clear division of labour, well-defined structures. Thinking about virtual organizations and the future (1997 Lucas D. Introna and Bee Leng Tiow)
Never before in the history of business, have organisations been subjected to as much changes as they have today, or so some argue. According to Stewart (1993), there are not one but four large, unruly forces of revolution: all happening at the same time. ...
It is well known in systems theory that the combination of a number of very efficient and effective parts into a whole does not necessarily produce an efficient and effective whole (Ackoff, 1971; Beer, 1966; Bertalanffy, 1968; Churchman, 1968).
The only case: all is completely localised and linked together in a mechanistic manner.
This is the situation we have in the typical engineering design context. In the case of the virtual organisation both these requirements are not obviously there.

Confusion on/off boarding processes by processes
There are overhelming number in process flows for the boarding. The challenge is: There is no dichotomy in planes, only in areas of SOE and OSS for different actions different responsibilities. Not all of these are sensible to be automated resulting in manual activities as standard work. Limiting the view to only boarding staff, is for the expected quantity in processes most of the work but in quality very minimal (less than 20%).

Programming not only coding: Devops - MLops
The search of the location for AI in the value streams. MLOps for Scarce Image Data A Use Case in Microscopic Image Analysis ( Researchgate: 2023 Angelo Yamachui Sitcheu, Nils Friederich, Simon Baeuerle,Oliver Neumann, Markus Reischl, Ralf Mikut)
The operationalization of ML models is governed by a set of concepts and methods referred to as Machine Learning Operations (MLOps). Nevertheless, researchers, as well as professionals, often focus more on the automation aspect and neglect the continuous deployment and monitoring aspects of MLOps.
As a result, there is a lack of continuous learning through the flow of feedback from production to development, causing unexpected model deterioration over time due to concept drifts, particularly when dealing with scarce data. This work explores the complete application of MLOps in the context of scarce data analysis. ...
The majority of tools focus on model versioning and tracking and ignore dataset versioning. This impedes the ability to reproduce results and renders it reliant on the coding practices of skilled experts. In industry particularly, due to IT-Software’s large and complex nature, the MLOps tools are often diverse and must match a specific established strategy.
🕳 Despite advancements in the MLOps domain, there are very few published real-world use cases in which MLOps is clearly designed, explained and applied.

The enterprise technology management system
Research on the Practical Application of Visual Knowledge Graph in Technology Service Model and Intelligent Supervision ( Researchgate: 2021 Jun Yu, Yintie Zhang, Yu Wu and Linhui Mao)
An enterprise's technology management system is an integral part of the entire management system, including the organizational structure, methods, processes and resources for implementing technology management. These management elements are controlled and effectively managed by the organization according to the law of technical activities, with the purpose of improving the technical performance and competitive advantage of the enterprise.
The technical management system is an organic whole based on technical resources, with a set of organizational structures, all employees have their own technical responsibilities, work and activities in accordance with prescribed procedures and methods, with the goal of improving the technical competitiveness of the enterprise. The process framework of the role of the enterprise technology management system is shown in the figure. Under this framework, build a technical management system based on the management content of each stage of the technical activity process.

cyber security
Information security, Cybersecurity, Cybernetics
Wondered how “cyber” became the go-to prefix for anything technical? (LI 2025 K van Wersch)
Despite its widespread adoption, cybersecurity is only one aspect of the broader field of information security. The latter focuses on protecting all forms of information—digital, physical, or otherwise—by addressing how people, processes, and technology interact.
This shift in terminology has created confusion:
🕳 However, it’s important to remember that technology is a supporting element. It helps organizations and people process information more effectively and efficiently, but it’s not the sole focus of information security. Using the term 'Cybersecurity' without a broader understanding can lead to the pitfall of thinking a secure environment is achieved solely through technology—or worse, making technology the end goal rather than a means to an end.
Required mindset change in Devops MLOps
Agilists and Project Managers: Examining Their Common Misconceptions (LI 2025 Scott Ambler)
Both communities are struggling. To move forward together, we must recognize:
  1. VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, change, and ambiguity) has been kicking our collective behinds for years now.
  2. While it's easy to talk about PMs and agilists being two separate groups, the fact is that we've had people with feet in both communities for years.
  3. The agile community has been brought low the past two years by its mostly self-inflicted problems. These problems included but aren’t limited to a focus on meaningless certifications over education, on frameworks over improvement, on fluff over stuff, on purity over agility, and on fads over grounded practices.
  4. Recently PMI has made progress in defining project management in terms of delivering value, reflecting a more agile and frankly more mature way of thinking.
We need to overcome commonly held misconceptions we have about both about ourselves and about "the other team."
Lean cycle
Required mindset change: simplicity
The Lean system is often promoted by tools and results, however the essence in a holostic system is a mindset. Ordering the components in the organized cycle of 4 quadrants and 9 topics is the figure aside.
The two operational technical topics a vertical control, the horizontal for the purpose. In the diagonals the related activities for an improvement.
✅ The essence of TPS:
The Toyota Production System has long been recognised as a way to eliminate waste and achieve high efficiency. However, its essence is to make work easier and less burdensome for workers, with a focus on creating meaningful work. SMED, or Single-Minute Exchange of Die, is a Lean manufacturing methodology aimed at reducing the time it takes to change over equipment from one production run to another. The goal is to perform these changeovers in less than 10 minutes, hence the term "single-minute."
