| Résumé : | A new paradigm involving evolution and change through the concept of dissipative structures has profound implications for prediction, for design, and for models which purport to explain how complex systems develop. The potential is illustrated by showing how the concept of evolution through bifurcation can explain the development of form. Reference is made to origami, which shows how the new theory involves qualitative rather than quantitative change. These ideas are further illustrated through models of the evolution of microeconomic markets and urban systems.-from Author |
