Value of concept

The term "technology" often use, not caring of exact definitions, at the best explaining, that it is necessary to understand as technology in the most general lines. It is no wonder, that there is a set of various interpretation of this term - from technology as object of material culture to technology as areas of applied scientific knowledge. Common fault is inherent in all these widespread definitions: they are so wide, that there is nothing and to try to receive with their help substantial conclusions or concrete results. In essence, the standard treatments of technology at all informative, than type statements "everyone gentlemen - the man, any lady - the woman".


Researches in the field of conceptual have shown devices of the system approach, that for the analysis of technology it is the most convenient to use concepts and the terms characterising its functioning. The conclusion, about necessity of consideration of indicators of type of "efficiency of the expense of fuel" some device as a measure characterising a condition of technology from this follows.


Considering the purposes of the present material, it is important to notice, that in discussion of questions of evolution further we will not do a difference between concepts "system", "organism", "product", "technology". - everything, that is more low spoken about evolution of technologies, is true and for evolution of any systems.


The system approach to treatment of technology possesses many advantages.


First, the quantitative measures, allowing to reflect functional characteristics of technology are accurately defined and can be objectively measured (for example, profitability of the enterprise, efficiency Power stations).


Secondly, functional indicators allow to consider both fundamental, and small technological innovations and to attribute it corresponding weight depending on their value as they "are reduced to a common denominator".

Thirdly, clearly, that at treatment of concept of technology from positions of the system analysis in the attention centre there are changes in product characteristics.
