Abstract. Living systems like enterprises and enterprise networks not only want to survive but also want to grow and prosper. These organisational systems adapt to changing environments and proactively change the system itself. Continuous evolution (of parts) of these enterprise systems requires diversity, but this heterogeneity is a source of non interoperability. In this article, interoperability and enterprise systems are analysed through the lenses of chaos theory and complex adaptive systems theory and requirements for continuous adaptation and organisational learning to maintain interoperability are identified.
Keywords: organizational learning, interoperability, complex adaptive systems, chaos theory
