Networks of interacting machines : production organization in complex industrial systems and biological cells by Dieter Armbruster( )

17 editions published in 2005 in English and held by 1,686 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

This review volume is devoted to a discussion of analogies and differences of complex production systems natural, as in biological cells, or man-made, as in economic systems or industrial production. Taking this unified look at production is based on two observations: Cells and many biological networks are complex production units that have evolved to solve production problems in a reliable and optimal way in a highly stochastic environment. On the other hand, industrial production is becoming increasingly complex and often hard to predict. As a result, modeling and control of such productio

Life : an introduction to complex systems biology by Kunihiko Kaneko( )

23 editions published between 2006 and 2010 in English and German and held by 699 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"This book examines life not from the reductionist point of view, but rather asks the question: what are the universal properties of living systems and how can one construct from there a phenomenological theory of life that leads naturally to complex processes such as reproductive cellular systems, evolution and differentiation? The presentation has been deliberately kept fairly non-technical so as to address a broad spectrum of students and researchers from the natural sciences and informatics."--Jacket

Complex systems : chaos and beyond : a constructive approach with applications in life sciences by Kunihiko Kaneko( Book )

24 editions published between 1996 and 2013 in 3 languages and held by 396 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Chaos in science has always been a fascinating realm since it challenges the usual scientific approach of reductionism. While carefully distinguishing between complexity, holism, randomness, incompleteness, nondeterminism and stochastic behaviour the authors show that, although many aspects of chaos have been phenomenologically understood, most of its defining principles are still difficult to grasp and formulate. Demonstrating that chaos escapes all traditional methods of description, the authors set out to find new methods to deal with this phenomenon and illustrate their constructive approach with many examples from physics, biology and information technology. While maintaining a high level of rigour, an overly complicated mathematical apparatus is avoided in order to make this book accessible, beyond the specialist level, to a wider interdisciplinary readership

Theory and applications of coupled map lattices by Kunihiko Kaneko( Book )

8 editions published in 1993 in English and held by 143 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

The technique of the coupled map lattice (CML) is a rapidly developing field in nonlinear dynamics at present. This book gives a fully illustrative overview of current research in the field. A CML is a dynamical system in which there is some interaction ('coupled') between continuous state elements, which evolve in discrete time ('map') and are distributed on a discrete space ('lattice'). This book investigates both the theoretical aspects and applications of CMLs to spatially extended systems in nonlinear dynamical systems
