Transdisciplinary Perspectives on Complex Systems: New Findings and Approaches

Editat de Franz-Josef Kahlen, Shannon Flumerfelt, Anabela Alves
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 aug 2016
This book presents an internationally comprehensive perspective into the field of complex systems.  It explores the challenges of and approaches to complexity from a broad range of disciplines, including big data, health care, medicine, mathematics, mechanical and systems engineering, air traffic control and finance.  The book’s interdisciplinary character allows readers to identify transferable and mutually exclusive lessons learned among these disciplines and beyond.  As such, it is well suited to the transfer of applications and methodologies between ostensibly incompatible disciplines.  This book provides fresh perspectives on comparable issues of complexity from the top minds on systems thinking.
