Qualitative Simulation On Evolution Of Enterprise Organizational Behavior

Organizational management research is of great importance for Chinese enterprise management practice today.Facing the changing market and external environment, the reforming and opening up process of China is rapidly going on,there exisits much improvement for social and organizational management,and then the research of organization would be helpful to this evoluting process. After the literature work on the subject, the qualitative simulation on enterprise organization behavior is done on three layers such as micro individual activities, group behaviors, and organizational behaviors. A research topic on distributed organization behavior simulation research is also done at the end of the paper.First, the paper reviewed the related literatures both demestic and abroad, then the theory and methodology of organizational behavior qualitative simulation is analyzed. The uncertainty and complexity in the modeling and analysis, also the distributed features of the organization makes the organizational research to be complex. However, the qualitative simulation methodology can resolve this complexity in the evolution of individual and group behaviors. The requirement from the complexity also leads to the introduction of System Dynamics, Cellular Automata, Distribute simulation methods etc.Second, based on the Micro-member perspective, a simulation study of individual behaviors in enterprise organization is conducted. The individual activities are analyzed and simulated from a micro organizational management point. The interactive activities between the emplorees and the manager are expressed by the qualitative variables and rules, the model is then formulated. The model which had been validated later can effectively simulate the differential and complex activeities between the individuals in the enterprise. Followed by, Cellular Automata method is used to study the group behavior evolution.The informal group has important effect on the organization performance and the CA is the the preferred tool for the simulation of informal groups. The distance and the moving activeties between the members are expressed by CA in a qulitative simulation way. The QSIM and CA modeling method are integrated to research and simulate the changing process of the informal groups'behaviors; a qualitative group behavior simulation model is established with an example application. The research would be the foundation of complex management system simlulation.Next, the evolution of enterprise simulation of the life cycle is done from the perspective of organizational behavior. The use of qualitative simulation is proposed to explore ways for the organization evolution theory, the quantitative parameters can be expressed easily quantified and observed for the organization attributes. Then, the corresponding System Dynamics model is established. Research results shows that the SDCLS programe is simple and functional enough to be used for business forecasting and analysis of the life cycle. The program can give management suggestions to the discision making during the organization cultrul and activity control.At last, Distributed organizational activities in the network environment are researched in a simulation way.Distributed organization activities simulation as a major research tools is mainly used to resolve the concurrent and distributed problem which is similar to the distribute organization management. Traditional discrete event simulation way could not be used to the distributed organization simulation due to the independence and paralell characters of the nodes in distributed organization. There exisists a main obstacle, i.e., the concurrent activities in the distributed organizational behavior research. The message-driven based programming is used during the model construction since objects in the system must receive the message during their working time. Interactive activities occurred in the process are then simulated as a parallel way.The multithreads method is used to simulate the activities of distributed organization behaviors. Problems such as the introduction and controlling of each thread and the syncronizaiton of simulation colock, also the protection of the critical variables which can be concurrently read are discussed thoroughly in the paper. By analyzing the characters of various activities and finding out the paralell activities, the paper designed different class to express the activities and message transferring method to make it be sent to the right targets, and then corresponding function is invoked, the parallel character simulation is then technically resolved, and in this way the paralell character simulation problem is resolved.On the basis of earlier studies, distributed organization event simulation system is developed, the whole structure of the system and the control mechanism are also established. The introduction of the thread and the time driven method, also the protection of critical codes are detailed designed, and then the distributed organization qualitative simulation system is realized.
