can only rely on the system structure to integrate the
various elements into an organic whole, and to
achieve the functions through the linkages between
the various system elements. The function
coordination of Ecosystem of cyber-society not only
reflects in the role, impact and results to the Internet
users or the overall cyber-society due to the presence
and activities of the network infrastructure, network
social environment and so on, meeting the spiritual,
material and cultural needs of the Internet users, and
promoting the comprehensive development of the
Internet users positively, but also reflects in the
smooth flow of matter, energy and information
(mainly in the form of information) between the
cyber-society and the network social environments
to meet the needs of their own development for the
overall cyber-society and its various subsystems.
(4) Coordination of input and output
Any system is in a certain period of time and
space, in a certain environment, and has to
continuously exchange material and energy with
their environment in order to maintain system
stability. The Ecosystem of cyber-society can be
divided into the following two levels, that is to say
the cyber-society formed by the interaction between
the Internet users (such as the users, virtual
enterprise, e-government, etc.), and the network
infrastructure and network social environment (such
as the network politics, network economy, network
culture, etc.) that support the operation and
development of the cyber-society. And there is the
input-output relationship between the cyber-society
and the network infrastructure and network social
environment, that is, the flow of information. The
coordinated development of Ecosystem of
cyber-society not only emphasizes the coordination
between the different levels within the system, but
also emphasizes the stability of the input and output
between the cyber-society and the network
infrastructure and network social environment. It
promotes the coordination of input and output within
the Ecosystem of cyber-society through the
exchange of information with the external
environment by their own self-organization and
human factors.
(5) Coordination of time and space
The Ecosystem of cyber-society has the feature
of time and space, that is to say this system can not
only be the cyber-society that based on the global
Internet, but also can be the cyber-society that based
on the regional Internet. The cyber-society in any
region is also a part of the real society. The
Ecosystem of cyber-society is an open system, and
the coordinated development of any subsystems can
not leave their environment. They have to exchange
material, energy and information with their
environment and absorb negative entropy in order to
maintain the sound development of the system.
Moreover, the coordinated development of
Ecosystem of cyber-society only refers to the
coordination in a certain period, and the Ecosystem
of cyber-society has different forms of structure and
functions, different operation modes, and also
different objectives to achieve at different stages.
Thus, we can see that there is a relationship of
mutually reinforcing and inhibiting between the
various elements of Ecosystem of cyber-society
(Zhang, 2006). If the various system elements can
coordinate and promote each other and control the
factors that cause the uncoordinated between the
elements to a minimum range, then the Ecosystem of
cyber-society will develop healthily. While if various
system elements can’t develop coordinately, that is
to say the entropy of the system increases
continuously and at the same time the system can’t
absorb negative entropy from the external to keep
balance, then it will threaten the normal operation of
Ecosystem of cyber-society. Therefore, we need to
measure the coordinated development of Ecosystem
of cyber-society. Through the coordinated
development measurement of Ecosystem of
cyber-society, we can find out the problem, and then
promote the development of Ecosystem of
cyber-society in the direction, content, progress and
so on by using the scientific and effective measures
on the basis of complying with the development and
evolution of the system itself in order to meet the
needs of human development.
3.2 Construction of the Index System
Scientific construction of evaluation index system is
the key to objectively reflect and measure the
coordinated development of Ecosystem of
cyber-society. In the context of complying with the
principles of scientific, operational, practical,
independence and relevance and on the basis of in
reference to the related research results, such as the
research on the real social, demographic, economic
coordinated development, research on the
coordinated development of urban ecology systems
and the cyber-society (Chen, 2002; Zhang and Liu,
2009), combined with the relevant content of
“National Internet Development Survey Report”,
"China Internet Network Security Report", and
"China Informationization Almanac", this paper
constructs the index system as shown in Table 1,
mainly including the following three levels:
