Open- loop, Closed Loop & Systems Thinking
WHAT IS A SYSTEM?
A system is a group of interrelated
components designed collectively
to achieve the desired goal. Systems
can be open-loop or closed-loop.
what is the social system?
engaged in joint problem-solving to accomplish a common goal.
what is a system?
A system is an arrangement (pattern, design) of parts that interact with each
other within the system's boundaries (form, structure, organization) to function
as a whole. The nature (purpose, operation) of the whole is always different
from, and more than, the sum of its unassembled collection of parts.
what is the second step into resources in technology?
An informing or being informed.
what is biotechnology mean?
The technology of using, adapting, and
altering organisms and biological
processes for the desired outcome.
what are Immediate outputs?
Products or services designed for instant use. (Right Now)
Example: Using within a year's time.
what is an environmental system?
interconnected compartments through which material or energy flow.
what is a complex system?
A complex system is a system whose properties are not fully explained by an understanding
of
its component parts.
what is the third step in Resources for Technology ENERGY?
3. The capacity for doing work and overcoming resistance.
what are Core Technologies?
The core
technologies are the
“basic building
blocks” from which all
technology systems
are created.
do technology have goals??
yes, Technology is designed to reach the
desired goal. Most technology is
designed with several goals in
mind.
where are the environmental, social, and technological found in the most?
they are found in nature as well as constructed by mankind.
what are the parts that interact with a complex system?
an agent, and an entites.
what are the first two steps in Resources for Technology CAPITAL?
1. Wealth, money, or property owned or used in business by a person, corporation, etc.
2. Wealth in whatever form, used or capable of being used to promote more wealth.
what is the one-word use for Structural Technology?
FOUNDATION
what are the 3 steps in an open system?
input,process,output.
what are the 9 core technologies?
biotechnology, mechanical, electrical, electronic, structural, fluid, optical, thermal, and material optical, structural, and thermal.
can a complex be an open loop or a closed loop or both?
It can be either a closed loop or an open loop.
what are the three steps of Resources for Technology materials?
1. Anything formed of matter and has substance.
2. Whatever idea, notes, observations, sketches, etc., can be imagined or recorded.
3. Matter that occupies physical space.
what is a technology system?
A technology system is a group of resources
(subsystems) working together to solve problems
and extend human capabilities.
what do the 3 steps in an open loop mean, what do they do?
input does what you want it to do, the process does the steps that lead to a result, and output does the result that comes out of a system
what do the social, technological, and environmental have in common?
have parts or components that work together to accomplish the goal.
what does an open loop need to require to have?
a human intervention.
what are the 5 steps of Resources for Technology
TIME?
1. The period between events or during which something happens.
2. Means of measurement for events, activities, and occurrences.
3. A period characterized by a prevailing condition.
4. Terms (apprenticeships, pregnancy, etc.).
5. Rate of speed.
6. A precise instant — second, minute, hour, day, week, month, year.
