題名 Tales of Two Societies: On the Complexity of the Coevolution between the Physical Space and the Cyber Space 作者 陳樹衡
Shu-Heng Chen貢獻者 經濟系 日期 2020-11 上傳時間 11-四月-2022 13:21:19 (UTC+8) 摘要 The digital revolution characterized by the current ICT and digital technology enables us to map what happens in this physical space into its cyber counterpart as if we have two simultaneously coexisting societies. One is a society of human agents and ‘things’ in the physical space; the other is the ‘incarnation’ of the former in the cyber space, further empowered by a myriad of software agents. The relation between the two societies provides a challenge for the science of complexity, since the mapping between the two is not just unidirectional (self-imaging), but also bidirectional (cyclical looping). Like a mirror, the cyber space can not only passively reflect the shape of the physical space, but more often than not it can actively shape that shape, which in turn results in the two societies having a feedback relationship with each other as they constantly coevolve. Understanding their coevolutionary dynamics becomes a research agenda that one cannot afford to have missing when looking ahead into the future well-being of humans. In the past, we have seen many individual subjects being developed as walks in between the two societies; however, works which address the complex interactions between the two are still limited. This Special Issue aims to meet the gap. 關聯 Hindawi 資料類型 book dc.contributor 經濟系 dc.creator (作者) 陳樹衡 dc.creator (作者) Shu-Heng Chen dc.date (日期) 2020-11 dc.date.accessioned 11-四月-2022 13:21:19 (UTC+8) - dc.date.available 11-四月-2022 13:21:19 (UTC+8) - dc.date.issued (上傳時間) 11-四月-2022 13:21:19 (UTC+8) - dc.identifier.uri (URI) http://nccur.lib.nccu.edu.tw/handle/140.119/139768 - dc.description.abstract (摘要) The digital revolution characterized by the current ICT and digital technology enables us to map what happens in this physical space into its cyber counterpart as if we have two simultaneously coexisting societies.
