The PDZ Domain as a Complex Adaptive System
Specific protein associations define the wiring of protein interaction networks and thus control the organization and functioning of the cell as a whole. Peptide recognition by PDZ and other protein interaction domains represents one of the best-studied classes of specific protein associations. However, a mechanistic understanding of the relationship between selectivity and promiscuity commonly...
متن کاملThe Economy as a Complex Adaptive System
This chapter argues that the economic system is best perceived as a complex adaptive system, and as such, the traditional analytical methods of economics are not optimal for its study. Agent-based computational economics (ACE) studies the economic system from the bottom up and recognizes interaction between autonomous agents as the central mechanism in generating the self-organizing features of...
متن کاملLanguage as a Complex Adaptive System
The paper surveys recent work on modeling the origins of communication systems in groups of autonomous distributed agents. It is shown that five principles gleaned from biology are crucial: reinforcement learning, selforganisation, selectionism, co-evolution through structural coupling, and level formation.

متن کاملMetathesis: Language as a Complex Adaptive System
It is now well understood that language use shapes the acoustic delivery of phonological patterns and, in particular, phonological change. One example of this type of language change-under-use is metathesis, the reversal of the expected linear ordering of sounds. The gradual transformation of chipotle to chipolte, a Spanish import, is an example of metathetic change in American English. The Gen...
