3. Evolutive (progressing, developing) information systems
The highest form of information system organization is Evolutive Information Systems (EIS) which are able to combine a directed evolution process on basis of genetic information, gained from parent system, and adaptation to external environment changes and to internal organization changes on basis of self-learning and self-organization.
Emergence of EIS is based on Self-organizing Information System, as well as on the process of creation (reproduction) and destruction of systems with possibility of transfer of substantial (genetic) information from parent systems to daughter systems. The more sustainable and more prolonged operation of EIS will be determined not by life-time of a certain system but by the life-time of a type systems in whole and coordination of quantitative characteristics of population of systems with users demands (external environment). Aggressiveness, impoverished environment and changeableness of the external environment will move to the second plan because creating self-similar but changeable systems will allow the information environment consisted of EIS to quickly adapt to potentially any changes of resources and to the user demands.
The main feature of EIS structure is that it contains reproduction subsystem providing production of self-similar EIS when reaching sufficient level of development and when there are necessary conditions in the system and in the external environment.
In comparison with SIS Evolutive Information System acquires the following new properties:
compactness with maintenance of necessary useful functions for the external environment;
high adequacy to user demands on basis of diversity;
high reliability of functioning and storing of information due to multiplicity if EIS;
maximal adaptability to external environment changes and internal structure changes on basis of self-organization, reproduction and destruction of systems;
co-evolution with self-similar systems (live in population) and with external environment;
evolution of types of EIS.
The main goal of SIS Science Center is creating Evolution Information Systems and Environments.
