The aim of the research is to develop a structural and functional model of cyberspace as an element of its mathematical (analytical and simulation) model, which allows us to study the properties of cyberspace. Formation of the terminological basis of the research area. Research methods: theory of complex systems, synergetics. Research result: a structural and functional model has been developed that describes the process of forming information services based on cyberspace resources. In relation to cyberspace, the concept of “symbiont” is introduced as a universal concept that allows describing any element of cyberspace and its resources.
