TERMS: RANDOMNESS AND CHANCE One of the great lessons of modern physics, specifically from quantum mechanics and the uncertainty principle, is how nature fundamentally operates within parameters of randomness and chance. We also find nonlinearities and chance factors in our day-to-day lives, with the weather to traffic jams to when we meet someone who becomes a good friend. What is important from a complex systems perspective is that even though there are random factors in phenomena at all levels of nature, we still see emergent patterns and self-organization. The study of why these patterns occur is at the heart of cutting edge research in the cross-disciplinary fields of complexity. |
