Abstract

Abstract:Big data impacts us at an ontological level, developing a new idea of personhood—the subatomic individual. This subatomic individual is created by the hegemony of big data and is distinct from the older, atomic form of individualism.. This subatomic individual is made up of individual pieces of information about our empirical selves that are then collected in massive databases and used to influence society. This has a depoliticizing impact, as big data strips the context from the subatomic person, leaving them in a perpetual present with neither a connection to the past nor hope of a transformative future.
亚原子人:大数据的新本体
摘要:大数据在本体论层面上影响着我们,发展出一种新的人格概念——亚原子个体。这种亚原子的个人是由大数据的霸权所创造出来的,与旧的原子形式的个人主义截然不同。这个亚原子个体是由我们经验自我的个体信息组成的,这些信息被收集在庞大的数据库中,用来影响社会。这有一种去政治化的影响,因为大数据剥离了亚原子人物的背景,让他们永远活在当下,既没有与过去的联系,也没有对变革未来的希望。

期刊介绍: The research on discrete event dynamic systems (DEDSs) is multi-disciplinary in nature and its development has been dynamic. Examples of DEDSs include manufacturing plants, communication networks, computer systems, management information databases, logistics systems, command-control-communication systems, robotics, and other man-made operational systems. The state processes of such systems cannot be described by differential equations in general. The aim of this journal, Discrete Event Dynamic Systems: Theory and Applications, is to publish high-quality, peer-reviewed papers on the modeling and control of, and all other aspects related to, DEDSs. In particular, the journal publishes papers dealing with general theories and methodologies of DEDSs and their applications to any particular subject, including hybrid systems, as well as papers discussing practical problems from which some generally applicable DEDS theories or methodologies can be formulated; The scope of this journal is defined by its emphasis on discrete events and the dynamic nature of the systems and on their modeling, control and optimization.
