Abstract:Hall for Workshop of Metasynthetic Engineering (HWME) is an important representative and thought achievement of QIAN Xuesen's system science theory. It has been widely explored and applied in the field of system science and system engineering. However, in recent years, with the rapid development of computer science and information technology, the research fever of HWME has been declining year by year, which has caused this traditional method in system science to be outdated. According to these issues, the formation process of HWME and its basic theory is presented firstly, then research status and development trend in recent years are summarized. On this bases, development opportunities of HWME with Big Data, Knowledge Management and Artificial Intelligence are discussed, the application prospects of HWME in the field of strategic evaluation under the support of intelligent technology are explored, which has provided references for methodological innovation in the field of system science.
