Abstract:
The use of terms such as “Engineering Systems”, “System of systems” and others have been coming into greater use over the past decade to denote systems of importance but with implied higher complexity than for the term systems alone. This paper searches for a useful taxonomy or classification scheme for complex Systems. There are two aspects to this problem: 1) distinguishing between Engineering Systems (the term we use) and other Systems, and 2) differentiating among Engineering Systems. Engineering Systems are found to be differentiated from other complex systems by being human-designed and

Abstract:
Fundamental laws of physics, although successful in explaining many phenomena observed in nature and society, cannot account for the behaviour of complex, non-Hamiltonian systems. Much effort has been devoted to better understanding the topological properties of these systems. Neither ordered nor disordered, these systems of high variability are found in many areas of science. Studies on sandpiles, earthquakes and lattice gases have all yielded evidence of complexity in the form of power law distributions. This scalefree characteristic is believed to be the hall-mark of complexity known as sel

Understanding the behavior of complex, large-scale, interconnected systems in a rigorous and structured manner is one of the most pressing scientific and technological challenges of current times.

In the aging or dynamical scaling regime, these systems are best characterized by two-times quantities, like dynamical correlation and response functions, that transform in a specific way under a dynamical scale transformation.
