Management and Applications of Complex Systems
Composed of selected research papers, this book brings together new developments and processes for managing complexity. The included works originate from renowned complexity thinkers, well established practitioners and new researchers in the area of complexity and detail issues of common interest.
An Introduction to Complex Systems
This book explores the interdisciplinary field of complex systems theory. By the end of the book, readers will be able to understand terminology that is used in complex systems and how they are related to one another; see the patterns of complex systems in practical examples; map current topics, in a variety of fields, to complexity theory; and be able to read more advanced literature in the field. The book begins with basic systems concepts and moves on to how these simple rules can lead to complex behavior. The author then introduces non-linear systems, followed by pattern formation, and networks and information flow in systems. Later chapters cover the thermodynamics of complex systems, dynamical patterns that arise in networks, and how game theory can serve as a framework for decision making. The text is interspersed with both philosophical and quantitative arguments, and each chapter ends with questions and prompts that help readers make more connections. “The text provides a useful overview of complex systems, with enough detail to allow a reader unfamiliar with the topic to understand the basics. The book stands out for its comprehensiveness and approachability. It will be particularly useful as a text for introductory physics courses. Tranquillo’s strength is in delivering a vast amount of information in a succinct manner.... A reader can find information quickly and efficiently—that is, in my opinion, the book’s greatest value.” (Stefani Crabtree, Physics Today)
Strategy for Managing Complex Systems
Das Management der Zukunft Wie der Management-Vordenker Fredmund Malik darlegt, wird systemischevolutionäres Denken in Zukunft immer wichtiger - genauso wie die Anwendung der Kybernetik auf das Management. Denn Organisationen sind komplexe Systeme mit ihren eigenen Gesetzmäßigkeiten und Verhaltensweisen. Sie benötigen ein Management, das ihrer Komplexität entspricht. Malik liefert in diesem englischsprachigen Buch die Theorie des neuen Managements der Komplexität, aber auch Strategien und Methoden, die für Manager und Führungskräfte unverzichtbar sind.
