Do we in IT really know what a system is? If we answer with Servers, Applications, Hardware, we need to review our understanding, since this is far from the reality.
Systems thinking is perhaps one of the most critical tools in handling the complexity in coping challenges we are facing now and in the coming decades. This is a brief introduction to the basic concepts in System Thinking. It is defined and organized in a way that can provide those basics for every audience. I hope you find it helpful!

Systems Concepts for Agile PractitionersRoger Brown
Agile software development practices are based on a set of values and principles described in the Agile Manifesto. As change agents for Agile transformation, we rely on these to help get the message across. There is another layer below principles, a set of scientific models that can help explain why the principleswork and strengthen the Agile message for some audiences. These are described in this presentation.
Using systems thinking to improve organisationsDavid Alman
Systems Thinking has been described as an approach to problem solving where "problems" are viewed as symptoms of an underlying system. If the underlying cause of a system problem is not addressed, problems can repeat and grow and cause unexpected consequences. This blog introduces a System Thinking Maturity Model, an ST Maturity Model, to help assess the underlying cause of problems and select a Systems Thinking Approach to resolve them.

Systems Thinking:Applications to Space SystemsCaltech
2019 Space Tech Expo
Systems thinking is a holistic approach to analysis that focuses on how a system's constituent parts interrelate over time and within the context of larger systems. The systems thinking approach contrasts with traditional analysis, which studies systems by breaking them down into their separate elements. Systems thinking facilitates collaboration among space systems customers, domain analysts, designers, and component manufacturers. Communication at multiple levels of abstractions and multiple levels of system detail can offer new insights into space system context, complexity, component interrelationships, and emergent properties.
* Learn the fundamental principles and concepts behind systems thinking
* Contrast systems thinking methods with more traditional engineering analyses
* Review case studies of systems thinking applied to space system conceptualization, design, testing, and deployment
* Understand insights by organizations that have been applying systems thinking to space systems
* Identify resources to further develop systems thinking skills and capabilities within your organization
Gigamap example by Manuela Aguirre: https://www.slideshare.net/ManuelaAguirre/policy-support-full-presentation
In this presentation you will learn about design tools and techniques to solve wicked problems, using Systems Thinking.
Systems Thinking looks at the whole of a system rather than focusing on its individual parts, to better understand complex phenomena. Systems Thinking contrasts with analytic thinking: you solve problems by going deeper, by looking at the greater whole of a system and the relations between its elements, rather than solving individual problems in a linear way via simple cause and effect explanations.
You can apply Systems Thinking principles in different situations: to understand how large organisations function and design for the enterprise (e.g. when you are trying to revamp a large intranet), but also to solve social problems and issues (e.g. unemployment with disadvantaged youth or mobility in larger cities). So basically whenever there is complexity and conflict (of interest) in your project, Systems Thinking will be helpful.
After an introduction to Systems Thinking and its core concepts, we will first explain and practice a few techniques that you as a designer can apply to better understand complex systems, for example creating a System Map and drawing Connection Circles. In the second part of the workshop, we will introduce techniques that help you shape solutions, for example using Paradoxical Thinking for ideation and writing ‘What-if’ Scenarios.

Bob Bergman on Systems Thinking and Chronic Social Problems
Understand why good intentions are not enough to solve chronic social problems and the application of systems thinking to understanding why homelessness persists in Maricopa County. While there will be a brief discussion on the complexity of social problems (Wicked Problems), this will not be a discussion on complexity theory, adaptive complex systems, autopoiesis, bifurcations, co-evolution, chaos and edge of chaos, emerging properties,far-from-equilibrium-states, power-law, self-organized criticality, sensitivity to initial conditions, etc. Rather this will be a discussion on the usefulness of applying systems thinking to chronic social and structural problems, with the hope that further “futures discussions” can take a similar approach.
Bob Bergman is President at Southwest Management Technology, LLC. He has 45 years of experience in management, technology, strategic planning, and systems thinking. Bob has been a WFS member for many years as well.
This is a deck of a systems thinking class I taught. I usually like to run teams through this class to help them understand systems thinking so we can convert to a company that thinks in systems.
This presentation was used as part of the collaborative work environment designed for delivering a workshop about SSM for group problem solving in the IAF - International Association of Facilitators - European Middle East and Africa, Regional Conference 2014.

Health-Economics has been our staple evaluation method for technology and drugs. Yet, during procurement, they often lack multi-axial, nonlinear determinants of health. Despite the influence they have on the prognosis of individual patients through respiratory treatments, heatstroke or water borne disease.
Health-Climate-Economics extends health-economics by adding sustainability criteria that factors in climate impact into the care of patients and helps quantify how much of an impact health services have on their own demand.
BarCamp Manchester 2016: Neuro, fuzzyio, logicalAxelisys Limited
A short lightening-talk at BarCamp Manchester 2016 covering 3 different types of Artificial Intelligence concepts. Neural Networks, Fuzzy Logic and Logic Programming.
The talk and bonus material slides from Ethar Alali's Agile Yorkshire talk in September 2015. Covering Business Agility and Lean thinking and why talking about [no]estimates is the wrong question.
It used to be that 90% of new businesses fail in their first 2 years. Lean Startup’s explosion on to the scene provide a step-change in mainstream entrepreneurship. However, for modern startups to avoid the same fate, A/B-tests need to yield credible results, especially in more uncertain environments.
How do you repeatedly design good, credible experiments to tame the unpredictable beast? This deck bridges theory and practise to provide useful tips, tools and techniques to apply to business, social media profiles or anything else you dare!
IT's A/B-testing and lean-startup techniques can learn a lot from experimental design and statistics. For those of you not that confident or familiar with such techniques, here is a little intro to help you on your way :)

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

SYSTEMS ARE EASY TO FIND!
9. Find Structures…
Structure – The ‘Statics’
• WHAT’s the structure of the
system?
• Entities, Departments,
Roles, Servers, Computers,
Applications.
• Can themselves be ‘self-contained’
subsystems
– Treated as Black Box
– Still Affects the Whole This is a Structure
10. Watch Interactions…
Behaviour – The ‘Dynamics’
• HOW does the system
behave?
• How do people,
applications, systems,
networks etc. interact
• Watch interactions
– Activities, Events,
Responses…
