Summary/Abstract: The article starts from the recently developments by Dominique Foray, with his new approache of "smart specialization", and Philip Cooke, with his new framework for the analysis of regional innovation, namely to see innovation systems as "complex adaptive innvoative systems", and develops the conceptual-pragmatic foundations of a new strategic innovative system (process) using the typology of led-processes (production) and Adrian Bejan's constructal principle.The economic production (innovative) process seen at sectoral scale and at large time scale appears as a process with evolutionary architecture and at individual scale entity appears as an organized architectural process that has the appearance of a fluid found far from equilibrium. In this perspective, the strategic system of innovation (SSI), in a general sense, is seen as a system of strategic activities designed to facilitate the emergence of innovative events. The rate of occurrence of the innovative events and their added value to the economy over a period of time are measures by the flow of performances.In this concpetual-pragamatic framework, one can say that to achieve a smart (innovative) regional specialization is necessary for the economic system of a region to convert (to be transformed by intentional innovation politicy) from one single-loop learning system into one with strategic government, double-loop learning.
