This review traces the historical evolution, conceptual foundations, and contemporary applications of the term homeodynamics across biological, ecological, cognitive, and social systems. Initially coined in the 19th century but largely forgotten, the term re-emerged in the second half of the 20th century as scholars sought to describe dynamic stability in open, self-organizing systems. From Yates’s…
Defining a complex system and evaluating its complexity typically requires an interdisciplinary approach, integrating information theory, signal processing techniques, principles of dynamical systems, algorithm length analysis, and network science. This overview presents the main characteristics of complex systems and outlines several metrics commonly used to quantify their complexity. Simple examples are provided to illustrate the…
Urban and peri-urban agriculture (UPA) has emerged as a critical strategy to address multidimensional urban challenges, including food insecurity, environmental degradation, and social inequality. Despite its potential benefits, UPA occupies a marginal position in municipal governance frameworks. Understanding how public policies and social influence mechanisms shape consumer behavior and producer viability requires a systems-thinking approach…
The literature is rich with studies and examples on parameter estimation obtained by analyzing the evolution of chaotic dynamical systems, even when only partial information is available through observations. However, parameter estimation alone does not resolve prediction challenges, particularly when only a subset of variables is known or when parameters are estimated with a significant…
Emergent properties are properties of a whole that cannot be reduced to the properties of its parts. Properties of a system can be defined as relations between a particular input given to a system and its corresponding output. From this perspective, whole systems formed by coupling component systems have properties different from the properties of…
