Bio
Diego González Rodríguez is Software Engineer, Master in Artificial Intelligence, Graduate in International Cooperation for Development and PhD Candidate in Information Systems. He joined the P2P Foundation in 2013.
His current research focuses in Complex Adaptive Systems, collective intelligence and P2P Social Dynamics. He has worked in several Research & Development projects in different fields (DNA and Bacterial Computing, Data Mining, SaaS,… ). He is also open source developer and has been involved in the development of Kurento and other FOSS initiatives.
For some time, he has been researching the relationship between Complex Adaptive Systems and P2P Social Dynamics following an evolutionary approach. He has published several research papers about different topics.
His PhD thesis explores how social systems evolve from centralized networks with homogeneous agents to distributed networks with high levels of heterogeneity. Following adaptation and selection processes, through an incrementation of differentiation and connectivity, the groups of human agents evolve and define more complex and resilient societies. The equilibrium state that will emerge from current perturbations is what he has named “The P2P Society”.
He published with Vasilis Kostakis the article "Information literacy and peer-to-peer infrastructures: An autopoietic perspective". This article argues that an autopoietic perspective of human communities would allow to understand societies as self-organized systems and thus promote information literacy as a facilitator of social development. Peer-to-peer (P2P) social dynamics generate public information available worldwide in digital repositories, websites and bibliographic resources. However, processing such amount of data is not achievable by a single central-controlled system. They claimed that distributed and heterogeneous networks of coordinated mechanisms, composed by both specialized human and artificial agents, are needed to improve information retrieval, knowledge inference and decision-making, but also to produce social value, goods and services. Handling these issues implies the collective construction of global semantic networks but also the active labor of knowledge producers and consumers. The article concludes that information literacy is as much important as any technical implementation and, therefore, may lead to networks of Commons-oriented communities which would utilize P2P infrastructures.
The bitmind.co project
bitmind.co was one of the initiatives which were funded during the Faircoop donations campaign in 2015.
