Abstract	The aim of this paper is to explore the epistemological evolution of systems thinking, from cybernetics to autopoiesis and anticipatory systems in search of common characteristics, themes, and behaviors that define living, intelligent systems. Building on this theoretical foundation, we seek to establish the guiding principles behind a new bio-determinist paradigm for the future design and operations of complex urban systems (smart cities). We introduce the concept and vision of Autopoietic Operating Systems (AOS) to describe the total convergence of autopoietic properties required to manage diverse urban functions (Smart Environment, Smart Economy, Smart Mobility, Smart Governance, Smart People, and Smart Living) and the mechanisms that will enable cities to become intelligent, self-regulating ecosystems, coexisting in harmony with the natural environment. © 2022, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
