Emergent Properties in Natural and Artificial Dynamical Systems
Résumé
An important part of the science of complexity is the study of emergent properties arising through dynamical processes in various types of natural and artificial systems. This is the aim of this book, which is the outcome of a discussion meeting within the first European conference on complex systems. It presents multidisciplinary approaches for getting representations of complex systems and using different methods to extract emergent structures. This carefully edited book studies emregnet features such as self organization, chaotic synchronization, opening on stability and robutness properties. Invariant techniques are presented which can express global emergent properties in dynamical and temporal evolution systems. This book demonstrates how artificial complex systems such as distributed platforms for simulation can be used to search emergent placement during dimulation execution.
