Blockchain networks and similar cryptoeconomic networks are systems, specifically complex systems. They are adaptive networks with multiscale spatio-temporal dynamics. Individual actions may be incentivized towards a collective goal with "purpose-driven" tokens. Blockchain networks, for example,...

For many years information security and risk management has been an art rather than a science. This has resulted in the reliance on experts whose methodologies and results can vary widely and which have led to the growth of fear, uncertainty and doubt within the community. At the same time, the...

The article describes an innovative metrizable idea for systemic assessments of product quality within the baking industry. Complex product quality analysis requires the employment of metrizability criteria for factors that impact the quality of the product, and these are called determinants....

To run CPS-engineering projects successfully CPS engineers of today need to possess both technical and social skills. The CPS engineers are increasingly required to have various technical skills because the products they design and construct are getting more complex having hardware, software and...

Privacy remains an intractable ethical issue for the information society. Given its complicity, there is a moral obligation to redress privacy issues in systems engineering practice itself. This paper investigates the role the concept of privacy plays in contemporary systems engineering...
