Biological cybernetics
The Biological Cybernetics (. English biological cybernetics ) is the science that deals with the control - and regulation processes in organisms and ecosystems busy.
In their department processes fall as the regulation of body temperature , the osmotic balance, the acid balance and various metabolic processes and their regulation by hormones , but also interactive structure and equilibrium processes in ecology .
According to Frederic Vester, the eight basic rules of biological cybernetics are :
- Negative feedback must dominate over positive feedback .
- The system function must be independent of quantitative growth.
- The system must be function-oriented and not product-oriented.
- Use of existing forces according to the Jiu-Jitsu principle instead of fighting according to the boxer method.
- Multiple use of products, functions and organizational structures.
- Recycling : Use of circular processes for waste and wastewater recycling
- Symbiosis . Mutual use of diversity through connection and exchange.
- Biological design of products , processes and forms of organization through feedback planning.
