Book Description
By finelybook
This volume serves a resource for the design and analysis of neuroprosthetic supersystems,which can be defined as organizations – either small or large,simple or complex – whose human members have been neuroprosthetically augmented. While numerous other texts focus on the biomedical engineering of neuroprostheses as technological devices or on the biocybernetic engineering of the host-device system comprising a neuroprosthesis and its human host,this volume presents a unique investigation of the intentional creation of higher-order supersystems that allow multiple neuroprosthetically augmented human beings to interact with one another and with external information systems in order to accomplish some shared task. In essence,this can be understood as the work of designing and managing neuroprosthetically enhanced organizations.
Individual chapters present an ontology of the neuroprosthesis as a computing device; a biocybernetic ontology of the host-device system; an ontology of the neuroprosthesis as an instrument of ‘cyborgization’; motivating and inhibiting factors for the organizational deployment of posthumanizing neuroprostheses by military organizations and other early adopters; an introduction to enterprise architecture in the context of technological posthumanization; an exploration of the implications of neuroprosthetic augmentation for enterprise architecture; and considerations for the development of effective network topologies for neuroprosthetically augmented organizations. The conceptual frameworks formulated within this book offer a wide range of tools that can be of use to policymakers,ethicists,neuroprosthetic device manufacturers,organizational decision-makers,and others who must analyze or manage the complex legal,ethical,and managerial implications that result from the use of emerging neuroprosthetic technologies within an organizational context.

图书说明
该卷为神经假肢超系统的设计和分析提供了资源,可以将其定义为组织 – 无论是小型还是大型,简单或复杂 – 其人员已被神经造影增强。虽然许多其他文章着重于神经假体的生物医学工程作为技术装置或包括神经假体及其人类宿主的宿主装置系统的生物传感器工程,该卷对有意创造高阶超系统的独特调查表示允许多个神经性增强人类相互交互并与外部信息系统进行交互,以实现一些共同的任务。实质上,这可以被理解为设计和管理神经性增强组织的工作。
个别章节将神经假体的本体呈现为计算设备;主机设备系统的生物仿真本体;神经假体的本体论作为“机器化”的工具;军事组织和其他早期采用者组织部署人类神经假体的激励和抑制因素;在技术后人类背景下介绍企业架构;探索神经假体增加对企业架构的影响;以及为神经造影增强组织开发有效网络拓扑的考虑。本书中提出的概念框架提供了广泛的工具,可用于政策制定者,伦理学家,神经假肢装置制造商,组织决策者和其他必须分析或管理复杂的法律,道德和管理影响的工具在组织背景下使用新兴的神经假体技术。
