VITREA - COMPLEXITY

Roberto Valle and Leo Castro first played together in a cover band. This group suffered a lot of changes of line-up for almost 4 years before its end. Always with the goal of one day playing their own songs,they persisted and finally resolved to put their idea to practice. Roberto calls his old friend,Marcos Mayer,to ask him to join the band. A few days later they met Guilherme and Pierre by Internet. Vitrea was formed. In the end of they entered the 'Semp Toshiba Festival Transam rica of Bands' wit

Structural Information and Communication Complexity

Structural Information and Communication Complexity: This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 16th International Colloquium on Structural Information and Communication Complexity, SIROCCO , held in Piran, Slovenia, in May . The 23 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 53 submissions. The volume also contains two invited papers. SIROCCO addresses topics such as distributed computing, parallel computing, game theory, social networks, networking, mobile computing, peer to peer systems, communication complexity, combinatorial optimization special focus is put to compact data structures, information dissemination, informative labeling schemes, distributed scheduling, wireless networks and scheduling of transmissions, routing, broadcasting, and localization.

New Software Engineering Paradigm Based on Complexity

New Software Engineering Paradigm Based on Complexity Science: This book describes a complete revolution in software engineering based on complexity science through the establishment of NSE Nonlinear Software Engineering paradigm which complies with the essential principles of complexity science, including the Nonlinearity principle, the Holism principle, the Complexity Arises From Simple Rules principle, the Initial Condition Sensitivity principle, the Sensitivity to Change principle, the Dynamics principle, the Openness principle, the Self-organization principle, and the Self-adaptation principle. The aims of this book are to offer revolutionary solutions to solve the critical problems existing with the old-established software engineering paradigm based on linear thinking and simplistic science complied with the superposition principle, and make it possible tohelp software development organizations double their productivity, halve their cost, and remove 99% to % of the defects in their software products, and efficiently handle software complexity, conformity, visibility, and changeability. It covers almost all areas in software engineering. The tools NSE_CLICK- an automatic acceptance testing platform for outsourcing (or internally developed) C/C++ products, and NSE_CLICK_J - an automatic acceptance testing platform for outsourcing (or internally developed) Java products are particularly designed for non-technical readers to view/review how the acceptance testing of a software product developed with NSE can be performed automatically, and how the product developed with NSE is truly maintainable at the customer site.

Managing in Uncertainty: Complexity and the Paradoxes of

The reality of everyday organizational life is that it is filled with uncertainty,contradictions and paradoxes,yet managers are expected to bring about the impossible: to transform themselves and their colleagues,to design different cultures,to choose the values for their organization,to be innovative,to control conflict and to have inspiring visions. Whilst managers will have had lots of experiences of being in charge,they may not always be in control. So how might we frame a much more realisticacc

Complexity and Public Policy: A New Approach to 21st Century

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Geyer, Robert / Rihani, Samir, PUBLISHER: Routledge, This book provides a clear, concise and readable introduction to complexity thinking, its application to the social sciences and public policy, and the relevance of some of its various tools to those fields of politics, health, the international realm, development, planning and terrorism. The authors argue that the foundation for many of the current crises in these areas can be traced to the attempt by social scientists and policy-makers to treat these systems and processes as fundamentally orderly, predictable and controllable. By providing an overview of complex systems, a practical introduction to basic concepts and tools of these systems, and examples for understanding and managing them in real life policy situations they provide an exciting new perspective for rethinking our basic approaches to the social sciences and for understanding and managing the increasingly interdependent world of public policy. The book is vital reading for students and scholars of the social sciences and public policy, and also policymakers and the policy actor audience.

Complexity in Chemistry and Beyond: Interplay Theory and

Complexity occurs in biological and synthetic systems alike. This general phenomenon has been addressed in recent publications by investigators in disciplines ranging from chemistry and biology to psychology and philosophy. Studies of complexity for molecular scientists have focussed on breaking symmetry,dissipative processes,and emergence. Investigators in the social and medical sciences have focused on neurophenomenology,cognitive approaches and self-consciousness. Complexity in both structure a

Social Fuzziology: Study of Fuzziness of Social Complexity

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dimitrov, Vladimir / Hodge, Bob, PUBLISHER: Physica-Verlag, The book applies the principles and insights of Fuzzy Logic to the complexity of social life. It draws on the full range of the social sciences, including some of the most up-to-date work on the escalating complexities of post modern life, e.g. new information technologies in a global world, new forms of consciousness and identity, new relationships between humans, machines, nature and environment. The volume is interdisciplinary, combining expertise from Fuzzy Logic and the Postmodern Social Sciences, synthesising and applying concepts and methods of Fuzzy Logic in innovative ways to the world of social life. It gives readers from the social sciences a comprehensive, exciting and practical guide for applying Fuzzy Logic, while bringing a rich body of social problems and concepts on to the agenda for researchers in Fuzzy Logic and related fields.
