Synergetics — Processes of Self Organization in Complex Systems

  • Chapter
Nature, Cognition and System I

Part of the book series: Theory and Decision Library ((TDLD,volume 2))

Abstract

We shall discuss the general methods of synergetics including macroscopic synergetics as well as a phenomenological ansatz which especially becomes important for systems which are composed of very complex subsystems whose properties are not known in such detail that a systematic treatment from a microcopic or mesoscopic level is applicable. Examples for these systems will be discussed in detail. They will be chosen from natural sciences.
