Abstract
This white paper presents the CangYan Systems Model (CYSM) - a comprehensive framework integrating engineering logic, life philosophy, and systems thinking. Developed through four decades of technical experience and reflective practice, CYSM defines life as a controllable, optimizable, and stable system operating under constraints. The model’s central equation, Certainty = f(Signal Strength, Processing Time), expresses how stability emerges from sustained signal recognition and time amplification.

Summarize by Microsoft Copilot. In the process of continuously calibrating cognition with AI, Microsoft Copilot summarized CYSM as follows: 'Stability is a product of determinism, and determinism comes from the interaction of signals and time.' This distillation precisely captures the core logic of my 60-year life's closed loop. This makes me even more convinced that this is not a miracle, but engineering.
