→ skos:note → "Often the flow of information in the system is necessary to
control the processes occurring in it. These flows can be reduced or
eliminated altogether by using self-regulating processes."@en
→ skos:definition → "Transition from an externally regulated system - with a
high flow of information between the control system and the working body -
to a self-regulating system."@en
→ skos:example → "A kettle with a whistle.<br/> A whistle is an information
signal for a person to drop everything and go to perform certain actions -
take the kettle off the fire or turn it off. Then they made a self-switching
kettle, in which sits an almost completely coiled nifty system - a
bimetallic plate. It is a sensor and actuator in one person, using the
energy of its supersystem to work. As a result, the person can go about
their business instead of running around on a whistle like a dog."@en
