Extractions: The many-time Fokker-type acion formalism and the single-time Lagrangian formalism with higher derivatives for the relativistic N-particle systems in various forms of dynamics. Relativistic Hamiltonian formalism with constraints. The connection between classical relativistic fields of an arbitrary integer spin and Fokker-type relativistic dynamics. Construction and investigation of exactly solvable classical and quantum relativistic particle models. Investigation of contact transformations on an infinite jet bundle in Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalisms of classical mechanics. a) Lagrangian formalism in RDIT was proposed and developed as a single-time three-dimensional description of particle systems based on the Poincare-invariance conditions which are formulated in terms of Lie-Backlund transformations (R.Gaida, Yu.Kluchkovsky, V.Tretyak). The fundamental feature of this formalism is the dependence of Lagrangian of the system on a countably infinite set of variables: space coordinates of particles and all their time-derivatives, up to infinite order (infinite jet-space). The general expressions for ten conserved quantities in terms of the Lagrange function as the result of Poincare-invariance of action integral were found.

http://pespmc1.vub.ac.be/SYSTHEOR.html

Extractions: Systems Theory : the transdisciplinary study of the abstract organization of phenomena, independent of their substance, type, or spatial or temporal scale of existence. It investigates both the principles common to all complex entities, and the (usually mathematical) models which can be used to describe them. Systems theory was proposed in the 1940's by the biologist Ludwig von Bertalanffy : General Systems Theory, 1968 ), and furthered by Ross Ashby Introduction to Cybernetics The developments of systems theory are diverse (Klir, Facets of Systems Science , 1991), including conceptual foundations and philosophy (e.g. the philosophies of Bunge, Bahm and Laszlo); mathematical modeling and information theory (e.g. the work of Mesarovic and Klir ); and practical applications. Mathematical systems theory arose from the development of isomorphies between the models of electrical circuits and other systems. Applications include engineering, computing, ecology, management, and family psychotherapy. Systems analysis, developed independently of systems theory, applies systems principles to aid a decisIon-maker with problems of identifying, reconstructing, optimizing, and controlling a system (usually a socio-technical organization), while taking into account multiple objectives, constraint s and resources. It aims to specify possible courses of action, together with their risks, costs and benefits. Systems theory is closely connected to

Article proposing an artificial intelligence approach to simulation in economics based on a multiagent system, based on Holland's classifier systems and genetic algorithms.
http://www.beje.decon.ufpe.br/rivero/rivero.htm

Extractions: Keywords: Multiagent Systems, Economics, Simulation, Classifier Systems, Anticipatory Systems. This article is a modified version of a work presented in the 4th Conference on Information Systems, Analysis and Synthesis - ISAS'98, held at Orlando, FL, in July 12-16, 1998 and first published in its proceedings at pp. 64-69. 1. INTRODUCTION Economic systems can be considered as evolving complex systems where economic agents rationally perform actions in order to reach a better degree of satisfaction. In this way, the agents organize themselves and make decisions about producing, investing and consuming. Those decisions are taken in a context of uncertainty, and they are based on the beliefs (or expectations) that the agents have about possible future states of the environment.

http://pespmc1.vub.ac.be/CYBSWHAT.html

Extractions: Cybernetics and Systems Science (also: "(General) Systems Theory" or "Systems Research") constitute a somewhat fuzzily defined academic domain , that touches virtually all traditional disciplines, from mathematics, technology and biology to philosophy and the social sciences. It is more specifically related to the recently developing "sciences of complexity" , including AI, neural networks, dynamical systems, chaos, and complex adaptive systems. Its history dates back to the 1940's and 1950's when thinkers such as Wiener, von Bertalanffy, Ashby and von Foerster founded the domain through a series of interdisciplinary meetings. Systems theory or systems science argues that however complex or diverse the world that we experience, we will always find different types of organization in it, and such organization can be described by concepts and principles which are independent from the specific domain at which we are looking. Hence, if we would uncover those general laws, we would be able to analyse and solve problems in any domain, pertaining to any type of system. The systems approach distinguishes itself from the more traditional analytic approach by emphasizing the interactions and connectedness of the different components of a system. Although the systems approach in principle considers all types of systems, it in practices focuses on the more

http://sulcus.berkeley.edu/FLM/MS/WJF_man2.html

Extractions: Walter J. Freeman Some pivotal questions are: How does the organized neural activity that initiates and sustains voluntary behavior arise in the limbic system? What observable forms does it take? How does it depend on past experience? How does it achieve flexibility in adapting to unpredictably changing environments? An optimal starting point for answers is study of the neural mechanisms for memory, of its role in coding information, and of its role in classical and operant conditioning, which voluntary behavior incorporates and transcends. A principal focus of research has been the ganglia of invertebrates, in the hope that an understanding of the biological basis of memory through the anatomy and physiology of single neurons in simpler nervous systems might lead to the discovery of universal mechanisms of memory in the modifiable synapses (Alkon, 1992). In regard to applications with neuropsychiatric patients, Alkon concludes (p. 225): "The awesome tasks of treatment must include restructuring the memory banks, reorienting the mind itself." Herein one can begin to see why this enterprise may fail, if the synapse is conceived as an address in a computer memory, which can be re-written as part of a new ''program". We know that memory is fallible, and that the human psyche can generate images, ideas, and articulations that transcend the limits of computers and neuropsychiatry (Sacks, 1985). A noncomputational approach is required (Globus, 1992).

http://www.newciv.org/worldtrans/whole.html

Extractions: This area is devoted to the study of whole systems. Nature is a whole system. But also an economy, a family, a company, a community, or many other things, can be looked at as whole systems. A whole system view would include all the factors involved and examine how they relate to each other and how they work as a whole. To deal with a whole system we can't leave anything out as irrelevant. Intuition is as important as rationality, we must address both scientific and artistic approaches, both material and spritual needs, the small as well as the big, what we feel as well as what we think, what we perceive as well as what we imagine. Whole systems are dynamic, they change they move, they develop. Frozen pictures of how things are supposed to be might do us no good, we need to deal with the live systems, whichever surprising directions that might take us in. There is no one authority in the field of whole systems. Luckily nobody has monopolized it by putting it into a standard curriculum defining what it IS. So, we all have the opportunity to discover together what whole systems are about. There is a Whole Systems mailing list for the exploration of whole systems principles, particularly in regards to economic, ecological, sociological and metaphysical transformation of our civilization.

ACCREATION OF THE EARTH AND SOLAR SYSTEM: A New Cosmology Copyright 1999, Lawren
Introduces a new theory of creation of the Earth and Solar system.
http://home.earthlink.net/~meteordust/

Extractions: Accreation (creation by accretion) is a byproduct of 35 years of research and study that proved Earth's diameter has expanded rapidly in the past ~200 Ma. In that relatively short period of geologic time all of today's oceans, and most of the water that now fills them, have been created by melting and expansion of Earth's core. (See http://www.expanding-earth.org) Core expansion is the mechanism causing the Earth to expand, and the rate of expansion accelerates over time as the planet increases in mass by daily bombardment of THOUSANDS OF TONS of meteorites and meteor dust that also adds a thin layer of dust on the surfacewith a 75% chance of falling on some body of water. This is the primary source for the oceans' deep sediment layers that have accumulated over the past ~200 Ma as new ocean seafloors have been generated by volcanic magma extruded via the midocean ridges that now encircle the Earth. The current philosophy of creation of the Earth and Solar System is based on two ancient but closely-related historical documents: (1) The story in Genesis that God created the heavens and earth in six days; and (2) Laplace's Nebular Hypothesis of creation of Earth and other planets of the Solar System that was published in 1796, a period in history when philosophical notions of Nature's wonders had to agree generally with the Bible's teachings.

Extractions: ONLINE TEXTBOOK GLOSSARY ... ABOUT CHAPTER 4: Introduction to Systems Theory (b). Definitions of Systems and Models As suggested in the previous section, a system is a group of parts that interact according to some kind of process (see Figure 4b-1 ). Systems are often visualized or modeled as component blocks with some kind of connections drawn. For example, the illustration below describes the interception of solar radiation by the Earth. In this system, the Earth and sun, the parts or component blocks , are represented by two colored circles of different size. The process of solar emission and the interception of the sun's radiation by the Earth (the connection ) is illustrated by the drawn lines.

Extractions: http://www.newciv.org/ISSS_Primer/seminar.html The Living Systems Theory of James Grier Miller By Elaine Parent Living Systems Theory is a general theory about how all living systems " work ," about how they maintain themselves and how they develop and change. By definition, living systems are open , self-organizing systems that have the special characteristics of life and interact with their environment. This takes place by means of information and material-energy exchanges. Living systems can be as simple as a single cell or as complex as a supranational organization (sueh as the European Economic Community). Regardless of their complexity, they each depend upon the same essential twenty subsystems (or processes) in order to survive and to continue the propogation of their species or types beyond a single generation.

Extractions: December 1, 1996; to December 31, 1997 http://www.newciv.org/ISSS_Primer/seminar.html James Grier Miller and Jessie L. Miller Adapted from Analysis of Dynamic Psychological Systems, Volume 2: Methods and Applications, edited by Ralph L. Levine and Hiram E. Fitzgerald. Plenum Press, New York, 1992. Living systems theory identifies basic principles that underlie the structure and processes of living things and relates them to the nonliving physical world, integrating and bringing order to the ever-growing mass of empirical data about them. In addition, living systems models and methodology are useful in empirical research on the great variety of systems of interest to psychology and related fields and in study of individual systems at any of the eight levels of living systems. Research in General Systems Theory Systems science research, whatever its particular theoretical bias, is concerned with processes of heterogeneous, complex systems. The systems of interest may be (a) living, (b) nonliving or (c) mixed living and nonliving. The last class (c) includes both man-machine and ecological systems. These are complex not only because they have many interacting parts but also because they change over time in ways that are not necessarily predictable from their initial states.
