ITIS 6010/8010: Advanced Complex Adaptive Systems

 

Course Description

Self-organization is a process where the organization of a system spontaneously increases. New, emergent properties appear. Complex adaptive systems like ant colonies, networks of neurons, the immune system, the Internet, and the global economy are a few examples where the behavior of the whole is much more complex than the behavior of the parts.  This course will explore in greater detail some elements of self-organization and emergence.
