CSSS10 Complexity Map

http://www.wikicomputing.com/ComplexityMap/ComplexityMap.htm

The CSSS10 Complexity Map is a picture of the CSSS10 lectures and of the complexity through an interactive network whose nodes are concepts or people (lecturer) and whose relations are inferred, respectively, from people or from concepts. The map is a “small” picture of the complexity. Perspectives depend on peoples, historical periods, places. This map is our own perspective of complexity, today, at CSSS10

• Why do we need a map
• Perspectives depend on peoples, historical periods, places. This map is our own perspective of complexity, today, at CSSS10.
• Peoples are hubs aggregating different topics. Topics are hubs aggregating different peoples.
• As Geoffrey West said some lecture ago …..I cannot expain what is a complex system, but I can recognize it when I see it
• Tool developed by Icosystem
• The map is a “small” picture of the complexity
• It is first of all a Tag Cloud: from the dimension of the tags in the map one may infer about the importance of the item
• What do we mean for complexity, today, here?
• The Phenotype of Complexity: the CSSS Map. The phenotype may express itself in academia, social and business context
