Publisher's Synopsis
Self-Organizing Systems, 1962 is a book written by Marshall C. Yovits that explores the concept of self-organizing systems. The book focuses on the study of complex systems that exhibit emergent properties and behaviors, and how they can be modeled and understood through the use of mathematical and computational tools.The author begins by introducing the concept of self-organization and its relevance to various fields of study, including biology, physics, and computer science. He then delves into the mathematical and computational techniques that can be used to model and simulate self-organizing systems, including cellular automata, neural networks, and genetic algorithms.Throughout the book, Yovits provides numerous examples of self-organizing systems and their applications, including the behavior of ant colonies, the emergence of patterns in physical systems, and the optimization of computer algorithms. He also discusses the challenges and limitations of modeling and understanding self-organizing systems, and proposes new directions for research in the field.Overall, Self-Organizing Systems, 1962 is a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the concept of self-organization and its applications in various fields of study. It is a valuable resource for researchers, students, and professionals interested in understanding the behavior of complex systems and developing new tools for modeling and simulation.Contributing Authors Include O.
