This paper focuses on Herbert A. Simon's visionary theory of the Artificial World and proposes a mathematical theory to study the dynamics of organizational learning, highlighting the impact of decomposition and recombination of organizational structures on evolutionary changes.
This paper focuses on Herbert A. Simon's visionary theory of the Artificial World. The artificial world evolves over time as a result of various actions, including interactions with the external world as well as interactions among its internal components. This paper proposes a mathematical theory of the conceptual framework of the artificial world. This goal requires the development of new mathematical tools, inspired in some way by statistical physics and stochastic game theory. The mathematical theory is applied in particular to the study of the dynamics of organizational learning, where cooperation and competition evolve through decomposition and recombination of organizational structures; the effectiveness of the evolutionary changes depends on the dynamic prevalence of cooperative over selfish behaviors, showing features common to the evolution of all living systems.
