Tools for Complex Systems Research "Where chaos begins, classical science stops. For as long as the world has had physicists inquiring into the laws of nature, it has suffered a special ignorance about disorder in the atmosphere, in the fluctuations of the wildlife populations, in the oscillations of the heart and the brain. The irregular side of nature, the discontinuous and erratic side these have been puzzles to science, or worse, monstrosities." Jame Gleick in Chaos: Making A New Science What is Chaos?

Welcome to for Self-Organizing Systems This site is dedicated to modern systems thinking in all its various forms an on-line educational activity of CALResCo , for scientist, artist and humanist, young and old Click here to read our Complex Systems teachings Specialisms Generalisms Applications ... Site Search Facility Here we will introduce the integrating sciences of Complex Systems and of ALife together with related systems areas. We'll also pursue the wider social implications of these transdisciplinary theories of self-organization on mind, art, spirit and life as it could be... Are these the eagerly awaited questions behind "Life, the Universe and Everything" ? Not quite... Even our infinite improbability drive can't take you there. But on this site, effects drive causes, answers pose the questions, science and values merge and we take trips into strange new worlds, travelling in an unreal Phase Space within hidden dimensions. Fiction ? You may well think so. Yet everything here is pure science, with lots of art and philosophy thrown in free, reflecting what's striking and best in recent research (our own and that of others) in the new contextual sciences of Complexity Theory plus associated fields. This is the creative, and very human, scientific world of tomorrow.

RECENT PUBLICATIONS The Center for Complex Systems Research (CCSR) studies systems that display adaptive, self-organizing behavior and systems that are usually characterized by a large throughput, such as turbulent flow, lightning, and the flow of information through the internet. We develop models and techniques drawn from nonlinear dynamics and chaos, neural nets, cellular automata, artificial life, and genetic algorithms to describe these complex systems. Each year CCSR organizes and hosts the conference Understanding Complex Systems The Center for Complex Systems Research has a rich history. Founded in 1986 by Stephen Wolfram, the center was later led by Norman Packard and E. Atlee Jackson. A collection of technical reports and scientific publications of CCSR researchers ranging from cellular automata to entrainment control of chaos, experimental studies of turbulent flows, chaotic electronic circuits, and fractal agglomeration patterns is available. The research at CCSR is supported by the National Science Foundation Grant No. NSF PHY 01-40179, NSF DMS 03-25939 ITR, and NSF DGE 03-38215

Advances in Complex Systems is a quarterly journal that aims to provide a unique medium of communication for multidisciplinary approaches, either empirical or theoretical, to the study of complex systems. Its goals is to promote cross-fertilization of ideas among all the scientific disciplines having to deal with their own complex systems, including biology, physics, engineering, economics, cognitive science and the social sciences. It is in fact the exchange of concepts and techniques - developed within areas as diverse as spin glass physics, decision sciences, mathematical economics, evolutionary biology, or psychology - which proved to be a major driving force in complex systems research.

COMPLEX ADAPTIVE SYSTEMS GROUP AT IOWA STATE UNIVERSITY This page is maintained by the Artificial Intelligence Research Group in the Department of Computer Science at Iowa State University . Please mail additions and updates to this page to Vasant Honavar honavar@cs.iastate.edu WHAT ARE COMPLEX ADAPTIVE SYSTEMS? Many natural systems (e.g., brains, immune systems, ecologies, societies) and increasingly, many artificial systems (parallel and distributed computing systems, artificial intelligence systems, artificial neural networks, evolutionary programs) are characterized by apparently complex behaviors that emerge as a result of often nonlinear spatio-temporal interactions among a large number of component systems at different levels of organization. Consequently, researchers in a number of disparate areas including computer science, artificial intelligence, neural networks, cognitive science, computational economics, mathematics, optimization, complexity theory, control systems, biology, neuroscience, psychology, engineering, etc. have have begun to address, through a combination of basic as well as applied, theoretical as well as experimental research, analysis and synthesis of such systems.
