Complex systems leadership in emergent community projects

Emergent Community Structure in Social Tagging Systems

A distributed classification paradigm known as collaborative tagging has been widely adopted in new web applications designed to manage and share online resources. Users of these applications organize resources (web pages, digital photographs, academic papers) by associating with them freely chosen text labels, or tags. Here we leverage the social aspects of collaborative tagging and introduce ...

Emergent organisation in complex biomolecular systems

Complexity and self-organisation are critical yet poorly understood phenomena. This project aims to develop and apply mathematical and computational approaches that will identify principles governing the emergent organisation of selforganising biomolecular systems. Computational methods for characterising the dynamics of these intrinsically complex processes will be developed and applied to pro...

Processing of Emergent Phenomena in Complex Systems

In this paper are described some properties of emergent phenomena and situations that appear in complex systems. The basic factors for the understanding to emergent processes are: the level of realization and the description of the emergent process, sharp change of the system structure (in our case represented by the violence of a structural invariant), a self-organizing phenomenon (that forms ...

Leadership in Construction Partnering Projects

In recent years there has been a growing interest in the use of partnering in construction. Central to any successful partnering arrangement is the change in cultural and behavioural characteristics towards mutual trust and understanding. Leadership is originally the source of the beliefs and values which forms shared assumptions of organisational culture. This paper builds on the leadership li...
