8 So what is a system? Ackoff: A system is a set of two or more elements that satisfies the following conditions: Ä The behaviour of each element has an effect on the behaviour of the whole Ä The behaviour of the elements and their effect on the whole are interdependent Ä However sub-groups of elements are formed, each has an effect on the behaviour of the whole and none has an independent effect on it Weinberg: A system is a way of looking at the world Ä Systems don t really exist! Ä Just a convenient way of describing things (cf: set theory) 2014 Steve Easterbrook. This presentation is available free for non-commercial use with attribution under a creative commons license. 8

10 Elements of a system Boundary Ä Separates a system from its environment Ä Often not sharply defined Ä Also known as an interface Environment Ä Part of the world with which the system can interact Ä System and environment are interrelated Observable Interactions Ä How the system interacts with its environment (inputs and outputs) Ä A closed system has no interaction with its environment Ä No system is fully closed Subsystems Ä Can decompose a system into parts Ä Each part is also a system Ä For each subsystem, the remainder of the system is its environment Ä Subsystems are inter-dependent Control Mechanism Ä How the behaviour of the system is regulated to allow it to endure Ä Often a natural mechanism, relying on feedback loops Emergent Properties Ä Properties that hold of a system, but not of any of the parts Ä Properties that cannot be predicted from studying the parts 2014 Steve Easterbrook.
