Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces a conceptual framework for modeling and simulating the future behavior of complex systems. The author draws inspiration from fields such as physics, AI, operational research, and information systems design methodologies. The book defines complex systems as a pair consisting of (1) a complex object (a structured and interrelated data describing the system) and (2) a set of transformation rules (specifying dynamic laws controlling system change). The author presents a simulation algorithm, called the simulation engine, that enables users to run simulations and understand the future behavior of complex systems. The book also discusses how to make the best choices among non-deterministic alternatives in these rules by establishing objectives and transforming these goals into additional constraints. The author concludes by discussing the significance of the book's insights into the modeling and simulation of complex systems, particularly for advanced applications such as engineering, industrial, and organizational systems. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
