Resilience is an Emergent System Property: A Partial Argument
Systems are collections of objects exhibiting joint behaviour. Sometimes this behaviour is anticipated, sometimes not. We have studied a number of types of complex systems and their failures, including electricity supply grids, motorways, the financial system, and air traffic control. We argue that the resilience properties of such systems are largely emergent. We illustrate the thesis through ...
متن کاملIs Matter an emergent property of Space-Time?
The first, fully non linear, mean field theory of relativistic gravitation has been developed in 2004. The theory makes the striking prediction that averaging or coarse graining a gravitational field changes the matter content of space-time. A review of the general theory is presented, together with new calculations that highlight this effect on black holes of the Reisner-Nordström (RN) family....
متن کاملUndermatching is an emergent property of selection by consequences.
A computational theory of selection by consequences [McDowell, J.J, 2004. A computational model of selection by consequences. J. Exp. Anal. Behav. 81, 297-317] was tested by studying the responding of virtual organisms that were animated by the theory on random interval schedules of reinforcement. The theory generated responding by applying principles of selection, reproduction, and mutation to...
متن کاملTeaching, an emergent property of eLearning environments
This paper offers to the discussion the claim that educating function of a system is an emerging property of the interactions organised between several different types of specialised agents including human tutors. A project implementing these ideas is then quickly presented. The evolution of the ideas in the field of learning technologies could be sketched as follows: the initial paradigm was t...
متن کاملThe power law as an emergent property.
Recent work has shown that the power function, a ubiquitous characteristic of learning, memory, and sensation, can emerge from the arithmetic averaging of exponential curves. In the present study, the forgetting process was simulated via computer to determine whether power curves can result from the averaging of other types of component curves. Each of several simulations contained 100 memory t...
