Interactive self-governance & value-sensitive design for self-organising socio-Technical systems

Abstract

The saturation of the physical environment with sensors, the proliferation of personal mobile computing, and the prominence of Artificial Intelligence in (so-called) 'smart' objects has created new opportunities for the development of socio-Technical systems. We are particularly interested in the convergence of people and computational processes (agents) in the creation of digital communities for sustainability and successful collective action. However, prior experience with intelligent and adaptive user interfaces suggests that the symbiosis of people and technology needs to be carefully considered. This paper presents three applications of self-organising sociotechnical systems, from which we derive design guidelines for implementing interactive self-governance. The guidelines are related to the methodology of value-sensitive design and the need to actualise human values as a critical supra-functional requirement of future socio-Technical systems.
