Systemicity is receiving wider attention thanks to its evident paradox. On the one hand, it occurs as a problem with complex symptoms. On the other, it is sought after as an approach for dealing with the non-linear reality of the world. At once problem and prize, systemicity continues to confound. This book details the mechanics of this paradox as they arise from human epistemological engagement with the world.

Guided by an original analysis of the fundamental idea of emergent property, Thinking Through Systems Thinking uncovers the distinct significance, but also...

This book studies algorithmic issues associated with cooperative execution of multiple independent tasks by distributed computing agents including partitionable networks. It provides the most significant algorithmic solution developed and available today for do-all computing for distributed systems (including partitionable networks), and is the first monograph that deals with do-all computing for distributed systems. The book is structured to meet the needs of a professional audience composed of researchers and practitioners in industry. This volume is also suitable for graduate-level...
