Complex Systems Research on Parallel Computers Russell K. Standish High Performance Computing Support Unit University of New South Wales Sydney, 2052 Australia R.Standish@unsw.edu.au http://parallel.hpc.unsw.edu.au/rks Abstract: Complex Systems research is a multidisciplinary field covering the gamut from Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Biology to Economics. Whilst there is no good agreement on what the term ``Complexity'' might mean, there are a number of threads or concepts linking the different disciplines together into a coherent field of research. Traditional mathematical techniques such as Analysis, Linear Algebra and Differential Equations have been largely ineffective at tackling the problems in Complex Systems; it is only in the last twenty years or so that computer modeling has been able to shed light in this field of research. The field is maturing, and the complex systems models are getting more sophisticated. It is now becoming apparent that high performance computing and in particular parallel computing will need to be exploited in the next generation of models. Unfortunately, the structure of typical complex systems models have acted as an impediment to effctive expoitation of their inherent parallelism. This paper discusses some of the issues, and suggests a way forward. Complex Systems The idea of what is a complex system is not well defined, however people intuitively feel that a biological organism is complex, whereas a cup of water is not. There are a number of themes which run through studies of complex systems, one of the more important being that of emergence. Whilst the notion of emergence is as notoriously difficult to pin down rigourously as the concept of complexity, it refers to the idea that a system's properties arise (or emerge) out of the interactions of the components of that system, rather than being a property of the components themselves i.e. ``the whole is more than the sum of its parts''. Examples of systems studied include: ecology, evolution, economics, artificial life, genetic algorithms, neural networks, cellular automata and agent-based modeling.

Thomas School of Electrical Engineering 428 Phillips Hall Cornell University Ithaca, NY 14853 (607) 255-5083 (office) (607) 255-8871 (fax) rjt1@cornell.edu This track seeks to explore methods at the frontier of understanding complex system phenomena. Of special interest is the use of the electric power systems as a context for this exploration. For HICSS-38 we would like to have four minitracks covering 8 sessions in two days. Minitracks: Information and Data Management and Analysis for Large Systems Thomas J. Overbye Market Designs and Infrastructure Investments Richard E. Schuler ... Peter W. Sauer Information and Data Management and Analysis for Large Systems Managing the operation of large, networked systems is becoming increasingly complex. Often, critical information about the system is getting lost in a tidal wave of data. A particularly germane example is the electric power grid, as evidenced by the problems experienced in the August 14th 2003 blackout. One of the key causes of the blackout was the people operating the system in various regions through the eastern part of North America did not have access to the “big picture.” The focus of this mini-track is on the management, analysis, and visualization of systems characterized by extremely large sets of data that cover spatial, temporal and contingent dimensions. Papers should focus on techniques for extracting information from such large data sets.

The Center for Human Complex Systems incorporates a group of scholars whose research focuses on the interaction of heterogeneous individuals. We examine how culture and structure co-evolve to influence behavior and interaction, thereby affecting system performance. Conversely, we consider how individual choices and social interaction shape, and are shaped by, system structure. We place particular emphasis on the role of information processes (how information gets represented, processed, and communicated), methods of social order-creation (competition, coevolution, self-organization, autopoiesis, restructuring) and redefinition (rule generation and selection, boundary construction, institution of culturally based conceptual structures) of social systems. Methodologically we emphasize agent-based computational methods as a way to incorporate agent heterogeneity in the study of social behavior of individual actor/agents inhabiting complex social systems.

Home Mission What are Complex Systems? Complicated and Complex ... Contact Us What are Complex Systems? Complex systems can be identified by what they do - display organization without a central organizing principle (emergence) and also by how they may or may not be analyzed - decomposing the system and analyzing subparts does not necessarily give a clue as to the behavior of the whole. A rough definition: A complex system is a system with a large number of elements, building blocks or agents, capable of interacting with each other and with their environment. The interaction between elements may occur only with immediate neighbors or with distant ones; the agents can be all identical or different; they may move in space or occupy fixed positions, and can be in one state or multiple states. The common characteristic of all complex systems is that they display organization without any external organizing principle being applied. In the most elaborate examples the agents can learn from past history and modify their states accordingly. Adaptability and robustness is often the byproduct. Part of the system may be altered and the system may still be able to function. Examples of complex systems: Metabolic pathways Ecosystems The world-wide web The U.S. power grid

93. TCJ: Special Issue On Engineering Complex Systems Complex computer systems have become ubiquitous, and now influence many aspects No single technique is adequate to address all issues of complex system http://vl.fmnet.info/formal-methods/TCJ-ECS.html

THE COMPUTER JOURNAL Special Issue on Engineering Complex Systems Volume 38, number 4 Original Call for Papers Complex computer systems have become ubiquitous, and now influence many aspects of our lives. More and more they are becoming security and safety-critical , where undesirable behaviour can result in breaches of privacy, or worse still, great financial loss, physical damage or loss of human life. Such systems are typically run on distributed, heterogeneous networks, and are subject to strict performance, fault tolerance and security constraints, as well as complex timing constraints, all of which may conflict. Many engineering disciplines must contribute to the development of complex systems in an attempt to satisfy all of these requirements. No single technique is adequate to address all issues of complex system development; rather, different techniques must be applied at different stages of development to ensure unambiguous requirements statements, precise specifications that are amenable to analysis and evaluation, implementations that satisfy the requirements and various goals such as re-use, re-engineering and reverse engineering of legacy code, appropriate integration with existing systems, ease of use, predictability, dependability, maintainability, fault-tolerance, etc. There is an increasing need to integrate relevant techniques in an appropriate manner. A special issue of The Computer Journal on Engineering of Complex Computer Systems, to be published in the last quarter of 1995, solicits original papers on techniques and approaches that may be applied, or scaled, to large-scale complex systems. This includes, but is not limited to:

Systems that compute can represent powerful mappings from one set of numbers to another. Moreover, any program on any computer is equivalent to a number mapping. These mappings can be thought of as statements about the properties of numbers; hence, there is a close connection between computer programs and mathematical proofs. But there are more possible mappings than possible programs; thus, there are some things that simply cannot be computed. The actual process of computing can be defined in terms of a very small number of primitive operations, with recursion and/or iteration comprising the most fundamental pieces of a computing device. Computing devices can also make statements about other computing devices. This leads to a fundamental paradox that ultimately exposes the limitations not just of of machine logic, but all of nature as well.
