Energy rate density. II. Probing further a new complexity metric
نویسنده
چکیده
Appraisal of the concept of energy rate density continues, as both a potential quantitative metric for complexity studies and a key feature of a unifying hypothesis for the origin and evolution of material systems throughout Nature writ large. This article extends a recent study reported in this journal, hereby analyzing normalized energy flows for an array of complex systems experiencing physical, biological, and cultural evolution. The results strengthen the comprehensive scenario of cosmic evolution in broad and general ways yet with much deep, empirical evidence. 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Complexity 17: 44–63, 2011

Energy rate density as a complexity metric and evolutionary driver
The proposition that complexity generally increases with evolution seems indisputable. Both developmental and generational changes often display a rise in the number and diversity of properties describing a wide spectrum of ordered systems, whether physical, biological, or cultural. This article explores a quantitative metric that can help to explain the emergence and evolution of galaxies, sta...
متن کاملProbing of the Interaction Between Human Serum Albumin and A New Synthesized Pd(II) Complex Using Spectroscopic Methods
Human serum albumin (HSA) is an abundant, multifunctional and nonglycosylated negatively charged plasma protein. HSA ascribed ligand-binding and transport properties, antioxidant functions and enzymatic activities. In the present study, the interaction and side effects of a new designed anti-cancer compound (1,10-phenanthroline butyl dithiocarbamato palladium(II) nitrate) on HSA have been inves...
متن کاملAdaptive multirate CDMA for uplink throughput maximization
We determine the optimal adaptive rate and power control strategies to maximize the total throughput in a multirate code-division multiple-access system. The total throughput of the system provides a meaningful baseline in the form of an upper bound to the throughput achievable with additional restrictions imposed on the system to guarantee fairness. Peak power and instantaneous bit energy-to-n...
متن کاملEnergy optimization based on routing protocols in wireless sensor network
Considering the great significant role that routing protocols play in transfer rate and choosing the optimum path for exchange of data packages, and further in the amount of consumed energy in the routing protocol, the present study has focused on developing an efficient compound energy algorithm based on cluster structure which is called active node with cluster structure. The purpose of this ...
متن کاملTwo-probe study of hot carriers in reduced graphene oxide
The energy relaxation of carriers in reduced graphene oxide thin films is studied using optical pump-probe spectroscopy with two probes of different colors. We measure the time difference between peaks of the carrier density at each probing energy by measuring a time-resolved differential transmission and find that the carrier density at the lower probing energy peaks later than that at the hig...
