DYNAMICS and ORGANIZATION of Complex Systems
Embedded Files
We investigate the emergence of complex behavior across various spatio-temporal scales.
The Complex Systems Group: Dynamics and Organization of Complex Systems is a working group under the Department of Physics, College of Science, De La Salle University - Manila. The Group is interested in the temporal dynamics and the spatial or structural organization of complex systems in nature, in human society, and in the virtual world. The group employs the tools of physics, mathematics, and computational sciences to understand the emergence of complex behavior.
