Yin Liuying and Hu Xiaoling

It is critical whether each segment joins each activity up in operation system since the economy is globalizing and the market competition is quickening. Resource transition is the elementary function of operation systems which can be divided into three subsystems: subsystem of research, subsystem of resources obtained and supplied and subsystem of resources transition. Among the three subsystems, the certain linking relations going with the course of the transition of certain elements are concerned, and prosperous linking on time series and space sustains the resource transition function. Material resources and information are important linking content in dynamic system, operation supporting system is essential soft environment in the system. Therefore, the theory of the management of dynamic linking mainly concentrates on dynamic ability and effect on linking, exploring and analyzing the characteristics of the three components on linking, and setting up the assess principle and assess guide line system on dynamic linking in the managing field.
