This article considers approaches to the formation of models of proactive management of projects for the creation and development of distributed information systems. Features of distributed IT projects as a complex adaptive system that develops under numerous interrelated constraints are considered. It is concluded that the projects themselves are distributed. The main trends in the development of such systems were analyzed, the main patterns and problems were identified. The focus is on the consideration of the basic components of such systems and formalized models are proposed to describe their interaction. Attention is paid to the formation and implementation of projects to create complex systems based on distributed information systems, where the main features are the action of a significant number of complex influences from the turbulent external environment. The issues of project reactions to the effects of these changes were investigated. To address the management of such complex projects, a proactive approach is proposed. The consequences of changes in the processes of creating such systems are studied. A mathematical model of minimizing the effects of changes on project elements in the management of complex projects is proposed and an approach to the configuration management of such projects is proposed, which in general allows to build a scheme of effective project management.

AbstractThis paper deals with constellations in which, as consequences of linguistic interculturality, elements of two or more languages encounter each other and result in something partially or completely new, an – occasionally temporary – “third quality”, namely hybridity. The paper contributes to the meta-discourse and theory formation by questioning the concept, term and content of “linguistic hybridity”. It also submits a proposal for a typology of linguistic-communicative hybridity that consists of the following prototypical main groups, each with several subtypes: (1) language-cultural, (2) semiotic, (3) medial, (4) communicative, (5) systematic, (6) paraverbal and (7) nonverbal hybridity. At last, the paper examines hybridity as an explanatory variable for language change. In conclusion, hybridity is generally a place of cultural production, with special regard to communication and language it is potentially considered as an incubator of linguistic innovation. Hybridity can be seen as the engine and as the result of language change, or language development. It represents an essential factor by which language functions and develops as a complex adaptive system. Hybridity operates as a continuous cycle. By generating innovation, it triggers language change, which in turn, leads to further and new hybridizations. The processuality of hybridity creates diversity, while at the same time it can cause the vanishing of diversity.
