In the first article of this series, we explored a simple but powerful idea: Health care behaves not like a machine, but like ...

We are trying to fix health care as if it were complicated. In reality, health care is complex.

An ever-increasing number of information systems are becoming indispensable in nearly all aspects of health care delivery, from electronic health records (EHRs) and radiology image viewers to ...

Scientists point out that a coherent approach to understanding the threats posed by artificial intelligence is still elusive. They call for a complex systems perspective to better assess and mitigate ...

A research team has developed a novel method for estimating the predictability of complex dynamical systems. Their work, "Time-lagged recurrence: A data-driven method to estimate the predictability of ...

SURD, an algorithm, reveals causal links in complex systems. Applications may include forecasting climate to projecting population growth to designing efficient aircraft. Getting to the heart of ...

Modern warfare relies heavily on advanced technologies and systems. To maintain an edge over adversaries, the military must continuously adapt and acquire cutting-edge capabilities. A key enabler in ...

A study by University of Hawaiʻi researchers is advancing how we learn the laws that govern complex systems—from predator-prey relationships to traffic patterns in cities to how populations grow and ...

Complex systems such as metabolic pathways, ecosystems, the Internet, or human societies are comprised of large numbers of components that interact according to rules that change over time and that ...
