# SYSTEM EVALUATION **Following the eight rules of biocybernetics**
The 8 basic rules of biocybernetics
# Methodical approach This tool is based upon the 8 fundamental rules of biocybernetics, an abridged version of it can be called up by clicking the blue bars.
At this place the computer program serves only for registration of the position of the green bars (which has been entered manually) and the special explanation of this position.
You start with the initial state and determine the position between 0 and 100 percent of fulfilment of the respective rule for each sphere of life.
You can find tips in the MATERIALS, how certain statements of the other system-tools can be interpreted in the sense of one or the other rule.
What is important is only the comparison between the initial position and the new evaluation (for example after corresponding measures), not the absolute position of the bar.
# Background Information The 8 fundamental rules of biocybernetics are based upon the knowledge of the modern "organisational bionics".

They have not been invented, but been copied from Mother Nature, which has managed to survive over 3 billion years without 'going bankrupt'
***
Together they form a checklist for a successful 'evolutionary management' in order to guarantee longlasting possibilies for survival and develop- ment of every living system - may it be a human being, an ecological system, a company, a city or a country. *** You can find a number of details in the Tools of the Sensitivity Model, showing you how the one or the other rule can be fulfilled by the system. *** Out of the total valuation you can estimate the degree of the sustainability of the system and how it eventually can be increased.
