, 2021 This paper seeks to bridge the gap between socio-material and complex adaptive systems approaches in conceptualizing the politics of transformation. Our contribution in particular is a further clarification of the relational nature of power, and the role

Healthcare teams as complex adaptive systems: understanding team behaviour through team members' perception of interpersonal interaction. [PDF]
BMC Health Serv Res, 2018 BackgroundComplexity science has been introduced in healthcare as a theoretical framework to better understand complex situations. Interdisciplinary healthcare teams can be viewed as Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS) by focusing more on the team members ...

Gaia as a complex adaptive system [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2002 We define the Gaia system of life and its environment on Earth, review the status of the Gaia theory, introduce potentially relevant concepts from complexity theory, then try to apply them to Gaia. We consider whether Gaia is a complex adaptive system (CAS) in terms of its behaviour and suggest that the system is self–organizing but does not reside in ...

Influence Cascades: Entropy-Based Characterization of Behavioral Influence Patterns in Social Media
Entropy, 2021 Influence cascades are typically analyzed using a single metric approach, i.e., all influence is measured using one number. However, social influence is not monolithic; different users exercise different influences in different ways, and influence is ...

Innovations and Economic Output Scale with Social Interactions in the Workforce
Urban Science, 2021 The COVID-19 pandemic of 2020 fundamentally changed the way we interact with and engage in commerce. Social distancing and stay-at-home orders leave businesses and cities wondering how future economic activity moves forward. The reduction in face-to-face

Urbanization favors high wage earners
npj Urban Sustainability, 2022 As cities increase in size, total wages grow superlinearly, meaning that average wages are higher in larger cities. This phenomenon, known as the urban wage premium, supports the notion that urbanization and the growth of cities contribute positively to ...

Infrastructure as a Complex Adaptive System
Complexity, 2018 National infrastructure systems spanning energy, transport, digital, waste, and water are well recognised as complex and interdependent. While some policy makers have been keen to adopt the narrative of complexity, the application of complexity‐based methods in public policy decision‐making has been restricted by the lack of innovation in associated ...

Complexity Adaptive OFDM Systems [PDF]
2007 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing - ICASSP '07, 2007 One disadvantage with current OFDM systems is, the system complexity associated with FFT module, equaliser, etc. is almost fixed and varies little with information bit rate. In this paper, based on an innovative "layered" concept in FFT algorithms, we propose a novel OFDM system whose complexity is adaptive to the desired bit rate and system ...

Industry Interconnectedness and Regional Economic Growth in Germany
Urban Science, 2021 Urban systems, and regions more generally, are the epicenters of many of today’s social issues. Yet they are also the global drivers of technological innovation, and thus it is critical that we understand their vulnerabilities and what makes them ...
