Self-organization: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 08:30, 3 January 2024

Self-Organization explains how distributed systems with independently acting parts and no central controller or designer can spontaneously form highly complex, organized systems.

This is an important topic that is a necessary prerequisite to the full understanding of creation, evolution, fractals, societies, economics, the universe, and pretty much everything. It shows that complexity is inevitable rather than unlikely. Complex order is an intrinsic part of the universe, not something unique to intelligent beings. Unfortunately, our current education curriculums rarely introduce this topic to anyone that isn't in a college science program.

Self-Similarity, generating equation, recursion, and feedback loops are key related topics, and more can be found on those pages.

Other related subjects that don't have their own wiki pages yet include Chaos Theory, Complexity Theory, Systems Theory, and Game Theory.
