Also Cyberocracy has a more established name Technocracy. Please use the correct term.
These types of organization are very close to each other, but not the same. Technocracy is a type of social organization which governed primarily by technical experts. If you wish some real life examples, soviet-type planned economy was an attempt to implement technocratic society, STP is a social-taylorism in action. But it was implemented with some fatal flaws. This message describes the most of them:

In a contrast to the technocratic, a cyberocratic society is ruled by machine and all decision making processes are performed using a special software. There were some attempts to implement such system in the USSR between 1959 and 1965, OGAS and EGSVC systems... Maybe you will be lucky enough to find some A. I. Kitov's and  V. M. Glushkov's publications and read more about that. Their projects were declared as "ready for production usage", but some members of the party were afraid of such type of innovations. They were afraid to loose the power. As the result, Kitov and Glushkov were expelled from the party and their projects were delayed for indefinite future.
