The basic features of complex dynamical and control systems, including systems having hierarchical structure, are considered. Special attention is paid to the problems of synthesis of dynamical models of complex systems, construction of efficient control models, and to the development of simulation techniques. An approach to the synthesis of dynamic models of complex systems that integrates exp...

While the cycle time research literature often advocates the principle of “cyclical thinking,” it also often fails to disclose important assumptions, requirements, and ramifications of the use of this tool. As a result, practitioners may encounter significant roadblocks in applying “cyclical thinking” to their cycle time reduction projects. These critical prerequisite and ensuing conditions hav...

in this paper, we use game theory to describe the emergence of self-organization and consequent pattern formation through communicative cooperation in bacillus subtilis colonies. the emergence of cooperative regime is modelled as an n-player assurance game, with the bacterial colonies as individual players. the game is played iteratively through cooperative communication, and mediated by exchan...

Mankind is confronted with an increasingly complex system, especially the major decision issues, such as organization and management, coordination, planning, forecasting, controlling and so on. Due to the complexity of the system, many fuzzy factors and the limitations of the existing complex giant system theory, there are still many problems to be solved. The research on the giant complex syst...
