The cybernetic paradigm

چکیده
Risk-based decision-making in reducing security risks is based on practical approach, usually a combination of rational and cognitive theories. In riskmanagement analytic, cybernetic, cognitive paradigms can be applied. The Analytic Paradigm has the potential to clarify a decision, but cannot guarantee an improved decision-making. Under the Analytic Paradigm it is asserted, that someone or a group will actively select from among distinct options in a stable decision environment so as to achieve a set of goals. Recently widely recognized, that this assumption is farfetched from reality. The Cybernetic Paradigm has been increasingly in use for group decision support systems. This paradigm focuses onto uncertainty control and not optimization. Qualitative modelling is becoming central instead of quantitative modelling and expert knowledge based systems are in the core.
