The Paradox of Intervening in Complex Adaptive Systems; Comment on “Using Complexity and Network Concepts to Inform Healthcare Knowledge Translation”
This commentary addresses two points raised by Kitson and colleagues’ article. First, increasing interest in applying the Complexity Theory lens in healthcare needs further systematic work to create some commonality between concepts used. Second, our need to adopt a better understanding of how these systems organise so we can change the systems overall behaviour, creates a paradox. We seek to m...
متن کاملMeasuring the Complexity of Ultra-Large-Scale Adaptive Systems
Ultra-large scale (ULS) systems are becoming pervasive. They are inherently complex, which makes their design and control a challenge for traditional methods. Here we propose the design and analysis of ULS systems using measures of complexity, emergence, selforganization, and homeostasis based on information theory. These measures allow the evaluation of ULS systems and thus can be used to guid...
متن کاملConnections, Communication and Collaboration in Healthcare’s Complex Adaptive Systems; Comment on “Using Complexity and Network Concepts to Inform Healthcare Knowledge Translation”
A more sophisticated understanding of the unpredictable, disorderly and unstable aspects of healthcare organisations is developing in the knowledge translation (KT) literature. In an article published in this journal, Kitson et al introduced a new model for KT in healthcare based on complexity theory. The Knowledge Translation Complexity Network Model (KTCNM) provides a fresh perspective by mak...
متن کاملMeasuring Complexity of SAP Systems
The paper discusses the reasons of complexity rise in ERP system SAP R/3 and proposes a method for measuring complexity of SAP. A program in ABAP for measuring complexity of particular SAP implementation is proposed as a tool for keeping ERP complexity under control. Main principle of the measurement method is counting the number of items or relations in the system. The program is based on coun...
متن کاملComputability and Evolutionary Complexity: Markets as Complex Adaptive Systems (cas)*
Few will argue that the epi-phenomena of biological systems and socio-economic systems are anything but complex. The purpose of this Feature is to examine critically and contribute to the burgeoning multi-disciplinary literature on markets as complex adaptive systems (CAS). The new sciences of complexity, the principles of self-organisation and emergence along with the methods of evolutionary c...
