Dear James Martin
The BCSSS is pleased to announce this unique opportunity which originates from our collaboration with the International Council on Systems Engineering and invites you to join the
INCOSE Webinar 76 - Systems Philosophy and its Relevance to SE
on Wednesday 6 May 2015, 11:00am EDT, USA / 5:00pm CEST, Austria presented by David Rousseau PhD BEng FRSA, Member of the BCSSS Scientific Council.
The INCOSE Systems Science Working Group is exploring how Systems Philosophy can be used to support expansion of the theoretical foundations of Systems Engineering (SE). This webinar will provide an overview of our joint plans for work in this area and explore some of the challenges and opportunities of this project. The webinar will explore how Systems Philosophy can aid the development of GST, and how a GST can help unify and expand the theoretical foundations of SE. Taken together, Systems Philosophy and GST can be used to develop a “General Systems Transdiscipline” (GSTD), which will greatly extend the capacity of SE to deal with complexity.

Where do good ideas come from?
The chance favors the connected mind. The connections for these projects and many more have been established at the International Federation for Systems Research Conversations in April 2014 in Linz, Austria. If you are interested in the back stories, the IFSR has published the IFSR Conversations Proceedings 2014 on its website. Please follow the link to read about the starting point of the General Systems Transdiscipline Research and many more ...
