Course Description
Complexity is a new approach studying how interconnected parts give rise to the collective behavior of large systems and how the systems interact with their environment. It cuts across all traditional disciplines: science, engineering, medicine, management. This course introduces the students to:
key issues associated with Complexity, main approaches to study Complexity, ways of describing complex systems, process of formation of complex systems, how local interactions give rise to global patterns of behavior, emergent phenomena, analytical and computational tools for studying Complexity, the main application areas of Complexity.
