Many natural systems (e.g., brains, immune systems, ecologies, societies (Human System-s)) and increasingly, many artificial systems (parallel and Distributed Computing systems, Artificial Intelligence systems, artificial [Neural Networks], evolutionary programs) are characterized by apparently complex behaviors that emerge as a result of often nonlinear spatio-temporal interactions among a large number of component systems at different levels of organization. http://www.cs.iastate.edu/~honavar/alife.isu.html
