Life as complex systems: Viewpoint from intra-inter dynamics
Basic problems in complex systems are surveyed in connection with Life. As a key issue for complex systems, complementarity between syntax/rule/parts and semantics/behavior/whole is stressed. To address the issue, a constructive approach for a biological system is proposed. As a construction in a computer, intra-inter dynamics is presented for cell biology, where the following five general feat...
متن کاملComplex Systems: a Physicist's Viewpoint
In recent years physicists have been deeply interested in studying the behavior of complex systems. The result of this effort has been a conceptual revolution, a paradigmatic shift that has far reaching consequences for the very definition of physics. In the nutshell, physics is an experimental science in which theoretical predictions are compared to experiments. It differs from other sciences ...
متن کاملHeterogenous Human Dynamics in Intra and Inter-day Time Scale
In this paper, we study two large data sets containing the information of two different human behaviors: blog-posting and wiki-revising. In both cases, the interevent time distributions decay as power-laws at both individual and population level. As different from previous studies, we put emphasis on time scales and obtain heterogeneous decay exponents in intraand interday range for the same da...
متن کاملCombining Intra- and Inter-cellular Dynamics to Investigate Intestinal Homeostasis
This paper reports on the multi-scale modelling of an intestinal crypt cellular structure coupled with Wnt signalling. Using formal modelling techniques based on the stochastic π-calculus, which supports ambients needed for compartments, we develop a collection of cell and molecular level models. The focus of our study is the role of Wnt in the control of cell division and differentiation. Usin...
متن کاملRobust and Irreversible Development in Cell Society as a General Consequence of Intra-Inter Dynamics
A dynamical systems scenario for developmental cell biology is proposed, based on numerical studies of a system with interacting units with internal dynamics and reproduction. Diversification, formation of discrete and recursive types, and rules for differentiation are found as a natural consequence of such a system. “Stem cells” that either proliferate or differentiate to different types stoch...
