Hello everyone
I`ve been reviewing literature about design activities using the sociomaterial approach of Orlikowski and Leonardi, but
even though there are a bunch of theoretical positions and few ideas about sociomaterial design, It seems there is no a modelling technique that fits this ontological perspective at the moment of design new artifacts, particularly information systems. As far as I know, traditional modelling diagrams do not enact the substance of sociomaterial relations because the final models becomes more rigid than the real life.
So I want to know if there is a modelling technique that can be useful to model artifacts designed by the sociomaterial lens, keeping in mind the dynamic, flexible and emergent factors underlying sociomateriality.
I really appreciate your ideas. Thanks
I am not a specialist in the sociomaterial approach but I deal with designing systems and processes. I wrote two articles about the connection of the human and productive spheres. There is a model described there, in which employees are profiled to optimally adapt people to production orders and workstations. Here are the links to these papers:
Chapter Application of Fuzzy Logic in Assigning Workers to Production Tasks
Article Human Resource Selection for Manufacturing System Using Petri Nets

I think you should look at AI and Machine Learning. You'll need a representative data sample and from that you'll be able to identify emergent properties and from those create a model.
