A process operated by a system on itself and on its environment.
R. VALLÉE, who introduced this concept, explains that the pragmatic operator is the product of the observation operator and the decision operator, i.e.: P = D.O.
The system is limited and directed in its action by the “distorted and impoverished” character of its perceptions, on which it must ground its decisions.
