There are two approaches to the systemisation and control of 3M&I- body: by inventing the pair map of A new academic rotating microcosm type on the base of pair matrix (input, output) with input- min versus output-max, together. These incorporate artificial intelligence and the discipline: internet of things, together with Matsui’s Advancing factory science, economics and artifacts science matrix and 3D modelling. The first offers an analogical and visual approach to real entity. The latter offers a digital and Professor Masayuki Matsui ndustrial engineering focuses on society.

With these, he a new academic discipline which aids of 3M&I is a post-cybernetic concept white-box approach to 3M&I-body solves fundamental problems from two Professor Matsui’s early research was the construction of harmonic worlds as it is related to both the natural body artifacts formulation. He bases this perspectives: that of the specific gravity motivated by queueing theory, a discipline such as win-win (a trade off where both (entities not modified by humans) and the approach on a matrix/3D method, where in economic allocation, and from the based on mathematical probability. His parties gain wealth) and the sharing artifact body (artificial things created and 3D refers to the 3-dimensional graphical physical size, using the lever rule.
