Evolution of Complexity: Introduction to the Workshop
Carlos Gershenson, Tom Lenaerts
The evolution of complexity has been a central theme for Biology and Artificial Life (Bonner, 1988; Bedau et al., 2000). Complexification has been interpreted in different ways: as…
A General Methodology for Designing Self-Organizing Systems
Carlos Gershenson
Our technologies complexify our environments. Thus, new technologies need to deal with more and more complexity. Several efforts have been made to deal with this complexity using t…
How can we think the complex?
Carlos Gershenson, Francis Heylighen
This chapter does not deal with specific tools and techniques for managing complex systems, but proposes some basic concepts that help us to think and speak about complexity. We re…
Phase Transitions in Random Boolean Networks with Different Updating Schemes
Carlos Gershenson
In this paper we study the phase transitions of different types of Random Boolean networks. These differ in their updating scheme: synchronous, semi-synchronous, or asynchronous, a…
Self-organizing Traffic Control: First Results
Carlos Gershenson
We developed a virtual laboratory for traffic control where agents use different strategies in order to self-organize on the road. We present our first results where we compare the…
Contextual Random Boolean Networks
Carlos Gershenson, Jan Broekaert, Diederik Aerts
We propose the use of Deterministic Generalized Asynchronous Random Boolean Networks [Gershenson, 2002] as models of contextual deterministic discrete dynamical systems. We show th…
