The paper elaborates on the goals and methods and examines the preliminary results of a series of events named CyberSystemic interactions (CSI) organised by WOSC. CSI build upon CyberSystemic concepts on personal and group capacities to share and build new knowledge (to learn) before, during and after interactions, and tries to increase the efficie...
The proposition of a data-sharing concept deals with governing the processes of personal biometrical data interchange. The data sharing concept proposes a set of mechanisms enabling individuals (data producers) to govern the data they produce. Data sharing concepts open a series of research questions: exploring the interactions between the society...
Important world institutions, such as the United Nations (UN), the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Develop-ment (OECD), are publicly recognizing the highly interconnected nature of our world and therefore the relevance of systemic thinking and cybernetics as leading knowl-edge foundations to deal w...
Purpose
Artificial intelligence (AI) reasoning is fuelled by high-quality, detailed behavioural data. These can usually be obtained by the biometrical sensors embedded in smart devices. The currently used data collecting approach, where data ownership and property rights are taken by the data scientists, designers of a device or a related applicati...
Pharmaceutical companies invested heavily in research and development, nowadays their funds are mostly allocated in the supply chain management. Inventory forecasting using AI focuses on optimising supply chain processes and mitigating operational risks related to the treatment of sensitive products. The purpose of this research is to comprehensive...

Purpose
This paper aims to define hybrid reality (HyR) as an ongoing process in which artificial intelligence (AI) technology is gradually introduced as an active stakeholder by using reasoning to execute real-life activities. Also, to examine the implications of social responsibility (SR) concepts as featured in the HyR underlying common framework...
The complexity of a successful tourist operations planning provides an everlasting challenge. It requires a vast array of data, managed and owned by multiple tourist business ecosystem players.

Purpose
Students develop knowledge through an ongoing process of learning embodied in their daily experiences. As citizens, they develop an identity in their communities as they build relationships through recurrent interactions, thus constructing citizenship by strengthening stable interactions. This paper aims to examine the development of studen...
Gaming has the potential to support the development of young people’s capabilities in social responsibility (SR) and, at the same time, represents a threat of developing undesired behaviour patterns. Successful integration of gaming in the lives of young people requires a systemic approach, which, to the best of our knowledge, hasn’t been provided...
For a long time, managerial and organizational studies have debated the topic of value co-creation, underlining the need to involve all actors in shared pathways to “collect and use” their information. In recent years, thanks to advancements in knowledge offered by information and communication technologies (ICTs) and computer science related to Bi...
In this paper, the effect of behavioural analytics on short-term default predictions at the invoice level is addressed by answering a question that slightly diverges from the traditional probability of default definition: 'What is the probability that this invoice will be paid within the next 30 days?' Resultantly improving short-term liquidity pla...
In the provided research, some of the Big Data most prospective usage domains connect with distinguished player groups found in the business ecosystem. Literature analysis is used to identify the state of the art of Big Data related research in the major domains of its use-namely, individual marketing, health treatment, work opportunities, financia...
The primary source of data published about a company is the company itself. Transparent reporting relies on the ability to measure the actual state of the affairs in the company and management's orientation to transparency and is tested every time negative data is to be reported. External interested parties are therefore potentially biased by the i...
Big data radically disrupts the world perspective, and provides potentials for redefinition of individuals, organisations and whole ecosystems. The provided research clarifies business ecosystem's requests for big data. Research uses systemic research tools: business cybernetics, system viability, requisite variety and requisite holism to explore a...

For the successful probability of default (PD) evaluation with the application of multiple prediction models two issues should be addressed: the accuracy of the analytic models which decreases over time and the evaluation of results which must be presented in a uniform shape. To deal with these two issues, a multi-agent system (MAS) and knowledge m...
