The Architecture of Complexity
This 1962 article by Herbert Simon, provides a key source for defining CAS
This is a default subtitle for this page.
Within this article (cited 5332 times at the time of this writing), Simon defines CAS as demonstrating the following features:
- hierarchical > Scale-Free end handlebar
- natural selection > (adaptive and evolutionary/rule based)
- feedback > (adaptive and evolutionary/rule based)
- emergence > (self organization and emergence of fitness)
The features he outlines are seen as being analogous to the features defined above and used in this site. Read more about Herbert Simon HANDLEBAR FAIL and get the link to the article!
