Hi Joe,
If a () system of () systems
exists then a (very (simple)) system is still a system of
(very (very (simple))) system.
It's amaizing to
know a very simple system which demonstrates very complex
behavior. This is a fantastic gift. We do not
deserv it - but we have it! :)
We could think that the natural numbers
(1,2,3,4,5,6,7.. so on) is simple. Are we sure?
Let's choose a natural number n1 (free,
spontaneously, without any reasons - just any of natural
numbers) and then let's choose again any natural number n2 (free,
spontaneously, without any reasons - just any of natural
numbers).
The more freedom of choice we have - the more chances
that n2>n1
Absolute freedom of choice makes n2>n1
guaranteed
The reason of this is that there is no a biggest
natural number (that is also an amazing fact, by the way)
We (people) are finite (in space and time) pretty
simple entities. How can we understand infinity?
The answer is - because ae are able to play with
a freedom of choice - thanks for the great gift - the natural
numbers :)
The logistic
equations and cellular automata are magic wands whaich transform complex
system of systems in a simple set 1,2,3 and so on :)

The logistic equation is a math model of the behavior of a
living system.
A very simple system can demonstrate very complex
behavior.
In my view this is another example of general systems
theory (GST) where a specific branch of science was generalized into
mathematics and applied in many places.
However, this is behavior
of a simple system, not a system of systems or an industrial
system.
Have fun,
Joe

Hi Jack,
I think the metod is to follow the
cascade of bifurcation which has the
universal mesure (a sort of the
delta number which can be got from
experiment/experience)
The
magics here is our ability to distinguish the related and
unrelated
events - where the bifurcated branchs (splitted
paths) belongs one tree
(one way)
Sorry if it is too vague
methafora - I do some urgent job right now
