Key Terms from the Complexity and Modeling Program:
-Complicated
vs.
-Complex
Complicated: is deliberate, has goal driven behavior, predictable behavior at all scales, system throughout manages within specifications.
Complex: individual behaviors and local interactions, scale-dependent predictability and unpredictability, high level of throughput.
Complexity:
-Leaderless: individual behaviors and local interactions not directed by central organization or control.
-Emergent: unexpected structure that comes from a system that does not have a direct connection to the system.
-Nonlinear: inputs and outputs are related but not in a linear fashion. Highly sensitive initial and ambient conditions.
-Self-organizing: organization comes from within the system and is nonhierarchical
