Parsons also became strongly interested in systems theory and cybernetics and began to adopt their basic ideas and concepts to the realm of social science, especially the work of Norbert Wiener (1894–1964) had his attention.

Classical Wiener space Classical Wiener space In mathematics, classical Wiener space is the collection of all continuous functions on a given domain (usually a sub-interval of the real line), taking values in a metric space (usually "n"-dimensional Euclidean space). Classical Wiener space is useful in the study of stochastic processes whose sample paths are continuous functions. It is named after the American mathematician Norbert Wiener. Consider "E" ⊆ R and a metric space ("M", "d"). The classical Wiener space "C"("E"; "M") is the space of all continuous functions "f" : "E" → "M". I.e. for every fixed "t" in "E", In almost all
