===Cogniscope v.2===
{{:Cogniscope v.2: Guided Dialogue}}
This version was developed by [[Leading Design International]] <ref>www.LeadingDesign.org LDi Leading Design International</ref> owned by [[Aleco Christakis]] and [[Diane Conaway]]. The software developed in the late 90's was compatible with Windows 95, incompatible with Windows XP and became partly compatible with the launching of Windows 7. It is incompatible with current versions of Windows. Cogniscope v.2 uses a number of External Objects that extend the capabilities of [[Lingo]]  (the scripting language used by [[Macromedia Director]] and later [[Adobe Director]]), which are no longer supported and do not function with versions of [[Adobe Director]] (in which Cogniscope 2 is written) released after 2000.


===Cogniscope v.2: Guided Dialogue  ===
{{:Cogniscope v.3}}
Guided Dialogue, was the WLS incarnation of Structured Dialogic Design <ref>http://www.woodviewlearning.com/node/4 Guided Dialogue </ref> It was designed to help groups completely think through problems and situations in a democratic and thoughtful manner. WLS is a licensee of  21st Century Agoras and is fully utilizing the Cogniscope II software in its work.




===Cogniscope v.3===
===Interpretive Structural Modeling===  
Between June 18-July 1, 2010, pioneers of the [[Institute for 21st Century Agoras]] participated in a series of sessions of a virtual SDDP co-Laboratory with the Triggering Question: "In anticipation of the evolution of the Internet and other interactive technology platforms (social networks etc...) what should be the requirements for the next generation of Cogniscope/ Webscope software (CSIII) for the enhanced and scaled-up practice of SDD? The results are documented in [[SDDP Design of the next generation Cogniscope/Webscope]]. In 2012, [[Aleco Christakis]] donated the code and rights to [[Future Worlds Center]]. Many of the features that ended up at the root of the MAP, were used as requirements for the development of Cogniscope v.3. A number of programmers are credited with the development, mainly [[Savia Christou]] and [[Eleni Philippou]] but also between 2010-2012, [[Antonis Loizou]] and [[Lawrence Kalogreades]]. Cogniscope v.3 has been released with life-time unlimited license to the participants of the 2010 SDDP. Single and multiple professional licenses are sold by [[Ekkotek High-tech business incubator|Ekkotek]]. Free version are available for educators (limited functionalities) and unregistered SDDP Facilitators (limited time).
Cogniscope and analogous packages implement [[John N. Warfield]]'s [[ISM Software|Interpretive Structural Modeling]] Algorithm
