摘要
去中心化自治组织(DAO)的兴起, 为传统的社会协作关系带来全新的可能性, 而DAO组织的核心驱动力和权利基础就在于其创新的运作机制. 然而, DAO作为一个同时具有社会复杂性和工程复杂性的复杂系统, 其机制需要能够动态适应不断变化的外部环境, 这同时也是其面临的巨大挑战. 传统的自上而下的设计方法并不能有效解决这些问题. 循环因果理论将复杂系统的运作视作是一个持续演化的动态过程, 从而为解决以上问题提供了新的视角. 因此, 基于平行智能理论和循环因果理论, 提出一种用于DAO机制设计和验证的工程方法. 在这种方法中, 采用了计算机辅助复杂自适应系统的动态设计工具(cad2CAS)简化DAO机制的设计, 并使用复杂自适应系统的计算机辅助动态设计系统(casCAD2)验证和引导这些机制, 从而建立一个因果循环. 通过提出这种方法, 希望能提高DAO治理系统的效率、安全性和适应性, 为更加鲁棒和弹性的去中心化组织发展奠定基础.
