    Complex Systems, Dynamics & Design: Key Note

    Uploaded by

    - Professor Jeffrey Johnson leads a research cluster on complexity, dynamics and design. - Designed systems, design processes, and design environments can all be complex. Design involves assembling parts into wholes and predicting the behavior of the whole system. - Understanding the dynamics and transitions of complex systems is important for design as experiments cannot be replicated and trial and error is not an option. Complex systems scientists need to work with policymakers to design complex systems and future, but both need to better understand each other's perspectives.
