From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the context of systems science and systems philosophy, systemics is an initiative to study systems from a holistic point of view.[citation needed] It is an attempt at developing logical, mathematical, engineering and philosophical paradigms and frameworks in which physical, technological, biological, social, cognitive and metaphysical systems can be studied and modeled.[citation needed]

The term "systemics" was coined in the 1970s by Mario Bunge and others, as an alternative paradigm for research related to general systems theory and systems science.[1]
