Download or read book Emergence Of Dynamical Order: Synchronization Phenomena In Complex Systems written by Susanna C Manrubia and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2004-04-14 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Synchronization processes bring about dynamical order and lead to spontaneous development of structural organization in complex systems of various origins, from chemical oscillators and biological cells to human societies and the brain. This book provides a review and a detailed theoretical analysis of synchronization phenomena in complex systems with different architectures, composed of elements with periodic or chaotic individual dynamics. Special attention is paid to statistical concepts, such as nonequilibrium phase transitions, order parameters and dynamical glasses.
