In the financial market companies interact with one another, creating an evolving complex system. These complicated interactions are reflected in temporal correlations of asset returns and flows of capital. We study certain properties of these networks numerically, where the nodes correspond to stocks and the edges to correlation based distances between them. As studies based on random matrix theory have shown, a large majority of eigenvalues of empirical correlation matrices fall within the spectrum predicted for random matrices, i.e. they are predominantly noise. A central issue, therefore, is to prune these systems so that preferably only information is retained. Figure 13: Snapshots of financial networks. Left: MST approach.

Filed in Complexity For the past four years I’ve used the Cynefin framework to help managers to understand the varied nature of the issues they face and to appreciate that some of these issues are better understood as complex adaptive systems. The beauty of the Cynefin framework is that it accepts the validity of rational, linear, and mechanistic explanations, but it does not regard these as universally applicable for all problems. In contrast, businesses have intention or a purpose. As Charles Handy points out, an organisation’s basic purpose is simply to exist and, through its existence, to achieve things that individuals cannot achieve. More specifically, however, organisations exist to achieve something which might be stated in their business strategy or, as suggested by Henry Mintzberg, their strategy has emerged and recognised in hindsight. Either way, a business has a purpose. When applying the Cynefin framework to organisational issues, any issue that is defined as ‘complex’ should at least be heading in a direction that is not in conflict with the purpose of the business. For this reason, in the diagram, I have drawn the range of possible outcomes for complex issues as being finite, but wide. It is important to remember that each ‘complex’ issue is unpredictable. Therefore, whenever an intervention is implemented it is critical that monitoring is undertaken to observe the patterns that emerge. Unwanted patterns (those contrary to the organisation’s intentions) must then be disrupted, and beneficial outcomes must be nurtured. In dealing with complex issues, no end point is ever reached.

65. What Is A Complex System Modern chaos theory addresses complex systems, which are systems with a large number of interrelated parts, and dynamic systems, which are systems that http://www.schuelers.com/ChaosPsyche/part_1_2.htm

What is a Complex System? Jung (1978) described the human psyche as having three principle parts: consciousness, which he calls an ego-complex , the personal unconscious , and the collective unconscious . Life includes both chaos and order. Our lives consist of a continuous series of good and bad experiences as evidenced by the modern concept of biorhythms. This is true whether we are male or female, young or old, and is irrespective of our race, ethnic origins, or religious convictions. The two interrelated concepts of chaos and order describe the complex nature of our physical universe as one of orderly disorder (Kellert, 1993). And we, too, embody chaotic order. In other words, we seem to be ruled alternately, and indiscriminately, by chaos and by order. We cannot get away from this relationship, but rather must somehow learn to deal with it. When our lives are going as planned, we can usually expect chaos (as an unpredictable turn of events) to show up at some point, in one form or another. Perhaps it will rain when we want to do some work outside, or perhaps our car will have a flat tire on the way to an evening in town. The important thing is how we meet this chaos and react to it. According to the findings of modern chaos theory, periods of chaos (e.g., those unplanned, unexpected, and usually unwanted events that occur to all of us) can be creative. If we look hard, perhaps we can find the new order within the chaos and be better for it.

Maeda's SIMPLICITY Home December 25, 2004 Complex System = f(Simple Parts) Yaron Goren from California in the US writes, "My favorite perspective regarding complexity is that something complex should be an integration of some very simple parts." I know that anyone who builds complex computational systems realizes that simplicity of parts not only has an intellectual aesthetic, but also is a requirement for retaining the implementor's sanity. Walking into a complex system of codes, with the seemingly infinite set of included files, libraries, and other non-intuitive happenings during compilation, can place your mind in a confused state of no-return. Neat and tidy structures and mechanisms are the lanterns in the invisible darkness of computational space. Simple parts are most simple when there are few (versus many) parts. When there are fewer parts, there is an opportunity to distribute one's precious time in fewer directions which results in a higher quality per part. I learned this from legendary Ferrari designer Ken Okuyama of Pininfarina at a meeting of an advisory board for Philips on which we both serve. Ken talked about the Ferrari as a car that is designed with increasingly less parts as a way to place an increasingly exquisite amount of time into each of a Ferrari's individual components. Should I get a Ferrari or a

Complex system informatics T his is an emergent-content course, with minimal prerequisites, designed to introduce the Bayesian tools of correlation-based complexity in an interdisciplinary way to students in the code-based sciences (including fields that touch molecular biology and computer science) as well as to students seeking modern scientific perspectives on information industries (e.g. journalism) and their effects. The target audience in particular includes: (a) students who in context of their (or their employer's) applications may want to collaborate with informatics professionals, or at least have a sense of what they offer, and (b) students with informatics credentials in their own fields interested in a broader perspective but not yet ready to take prerequisites for informatics work in other disciplines. The course is designed to take advantage of the fact that information theory perspectives allow one to paint with a unified-brush practical tools (like mutual information ) for recognizing and measuring correlations between observations, and thus for example to:

Examples of complex systems include ant-hills, ants themselves, human economies, climate, nervous systems, cells and living things, including human beings, as well as modern energy or telecommunication infrastructures Photo credit: tasosk A complex system is any system that is based on strict collaboration and interaction: a network, basically. But which is the right way to manage a complex system and make it work? In health care, researchers and consultants who take up complexity, often fail to follow through the implications in their work and are unable to fully estimate the degree of change necessary to make it work in practice. The theory of complexity often loses sense when applied to real contexts. The article we are republishing today has been written by Dave Snowden, an expert of cognitive science who, starting from the discussion of complexity in health care systems, puts down a list of all the linear approaches that don’t work in non-linear complex situations, thus introducing a different outlook on the subject.

Contact Us var addthis_pub = 'eventhelix'; Home Real-time Mantra Embedded Design Anatomy of a Complex System Anatomy of a Complex System Over the years, Realtime systems have increased in complexity. As the systems get complex they get harder and harder to develop as it needs a completely different mindset and tools to develop complex systems. Most tools and techniques that have served us well for years do not scale very well with increasing complexity of systems. In the future complexity of man made systems will increase dramatically. How will these systems work and operate? Some of these answers can be found right now by examining biological systems. Current state of biological systems represent system architectures that have evolved over millions of years. Most biological systems are several order of magnitudes more complex than man made system. Nature has a few billion years of experience in developing complex Realtime systems. In this article we will cover some of the characteristics of biological systems and how they can influence development of complex Realtime systems in the future. Nature vs Man Made Systems The following table covers different characteristics of systems found in nature. The implication of these characteristics on complex Realtime systems are also covered.
