Welcome to the sharing space of the Innovation Center of The Unicist Research Institute, a world leader in its segment since 1976.
The research institute introduced the functionalist approach that is based on the Unicist Logic, which is a synthesization of the functionality of the ontogenetic intelligence of nature that allows introducing this intelligence in adaptive environments to design the structure, binary actions, objects and catalysts that manage their functionality.
The New Stage in Business
The 4th Industrial Revolution introduced a paradigm shift that allows empowering business adaptability and customer orientation. Since 1976 The Unicist Research Institute has been a precursor of the research in adaptability due to the development of a unicist ontological approach to adaptive systems with open boundaries that made businesses reasonable, understandable, and predictable.
This is a functionalist approach that is integrated by the unicist strategy that allows anticipating and planning actions to ensure the adaptability of businesses and the generation of results.
The functionalist technologies led to the development of three tools that make this new stage possible:
1) Binary actions, which are concept driven actions that allow generating results without generating reactions.
2) Business objects, which are encapsulated adaptive systems to generate results to drive business processes and sustain binary actions.
3) Catalysts, which are special types of business objects to expand the possibilities of business functions, accelerate processes and increase efficiency.
