On modelling the immune system as a complex system [PDF]
Theory in Biosciences, 2006 We argue that immune system is an adaptive complex system. It is shown that it has emergent properties. Its network structure is of the small world network type. The network is of the threshold type, which helps in avoiding autoimmunity. It has the property that every antigen (e.g.virus or bacteria) is typically attacked by more than one effector. This

Inoculum Concentration Influences Pseudomonas aeruginosa Phenotype and Biofilm Architecture
Microbiology Spectrum, 2022 In infections, bacterial cells are often found as relatively small multicellular aggregates characterized by a heterogeneous distribution of phenotype, genotype, and growth rates depending on their surrounding microenvironment.

Modeling complex systems [PDF]
Agricultural Economics, 2010 AbstractEmpirical observations suggest that linear dynamics are not an adequate representation of ecological systems and that a realistic representation would require adoption of complex nonlinear dynamical systems with characteristics encountered in complex adaptive systems (CAS).

Modelling patterns for systems of systems architectures [PDF]
2014 IEEE International Systems Conference Proceedings, 2014 This paper presents an initial report on modelling patterns and architectures for system of systems (SoSs) and their constituent systems (CSs). Fundamental architectural principles for systems and SoSs and relevant work published so far are discussed and summarised.
