Cybernetics is defined classically as the study of "control and communication in the animal and the machine" (Wiener 1948). After the decline of classical cybernetics, the field underwent a rebirth as "second-order...

The term cybernetics is much misused in the popular media. Often used to convey notions of high-technology, robotics, and even computer networks like the Internet, in reality, cybernetics refers to the study of communications and control in animal and...

CYBERNETICS. Cybernetics is the study of control and communication. Although it is often thought of as primarily the control systems in machines, cybernetic theory can also be applied to biological agents, to systems comprised of either mechanical or...

Cybernetics is the study of the communication and control processes of both living and artificial systems in order to understand the similarities and the differences between the two. The behavior of living nervous systems has been studied by biologists...

Cybernetics is the study of communication and feedback control in machines and humans. Cybernetics analyzes the ability of humans, animals and some machines to respond to or make adjustments based upon sensory input from the environment. This process...

control theory as it is applied to complex systems. Cybernetics is associated with models in which a monitor compares what is happening to a system at various sampling times with some standard of what should be happening, and a controller adjusts the...

Cybernetics is a term that was originated by American mathematician Norbert Wiener (1894-1964) in the late 1940s. Based on common relationships between humans and machines, cybernetics is the study and analysis of control and communication systems. As...

Science of regulation and control in animals (including humans), organizations, and machines when they are viewed as self-governing whole entities consisting of parts and their organization. It was conceived by Norbert Wiener, who coined the term in...

A branch of science concerned with control systems through feedback and subsequent systems modification in electrical or mechanical devices and the relationship between these and communications in constructed and biological...

The scientific study of the processes of automatic communication and control in either animals or machines, such as the operation of the nervous system or the operation of computers,...

Cybernetics is the interdisciplinary study of the structure of complex systems, especially communication processes, control mechanisms and feedback principles. Cybernetics is closely related to control theory and systems theory. Contemporary cybernetics...
