Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, part of a complex systems research tradition, introduces Complex Systems as an approach to modeling, predicting, and controlling behavior in complex engineered systems. The author proposes that structured data, represented as complex objects, can be used to model the behavior of such systems, with transformation rules describing local changes to the system. The method builds on existing object-oriented approaches while introducing additional features such as time and non-determinism. The resulting model can be used for both prediction and control, with the author proposing an optimization problem formulation to restrict non-determinism and achieve optimal system performance. The book is an important contribution to the field of complex systems, providing a comprehensive framework for modeling and analyzing their behavior, with applications in engineering, industrial, and organizational systems.
