	Redundant Complexity
		His central interpretative metaphor for biochemical complexity, that of the well-designed mousetrap that ceases to function if critical parts are absent, is undermined by the observation that typical biochemical systems exhibit considerable redundancy and overlap of function.
		An irreducibly complex system cannot be produced directly (that is, by continuously improving the initial function, which continues to work by the same mechanism) by slight, successive modifications of a precursor system, because any precursor to an irreducibly complex system that is missing a part is by definition nonfunctional.
		Redundant complexity is embodied in the discovery that biochemical processes frequently do not involve simple, linear sequences of reactions, with function destroyed by the absence of a given component in the sequence.

	Computational Complexity: 09/01/2002 - 09/07/2002
		PP is not much use as a probabilistic class since it would take potentially an exponential number of trials to distinguish accepting from rejecting with reasonable confidence
		Beigel, Reingold and Spielman show that PP is closed under union, a far trickier proof than one would expect using the fact that rational functions approximate the sign function well.
		PP is the prototypical counting class, classes defined in terms of the number of accepting and rejecting paths.

		The increasing complexity of the immunization schedule necessitates intensive surveillance and records management for young children, especially for vulnerable populations who may not have a regular source of health care and are therefore at greatest risk of low immunization coverage.
		This complexity is likely to increase during periods of reform and realignment within the health care delivery system; thus, greater oversight and monitoring are required to ensure that disparities in immunization coverage rates do not grow.
		Despite the increasing change and complexity affecting the national immunization effort, the incidence of VPDs has decreased, and important objectives for national coverage were partially met in the 1990s.

		The complexity of economic systems ranges from small group subsistence at the most primitive level, through economies based on trade and commerce, to mass production and retail economies-the most complex.
		A typical continuum of increasing complexity would be: tribal government, tribal confederation, the feudal kingdom, the centralized kingdom, and the modern nation-state.
		Residential patterns vary in complexity in a similar continuum: from societies based on spatially distinct kinship groupings, to those based on the village, the town, the city, the metropolis, and finally the megalopolis.

		The point is that this issue emerges from a complex series of interactions, which nicely illustrate its subject.
		He argues that the science of complexity promotes the use of patterns for analysis and design in contrast to earlier, and perhaps now obsolete, step-by-step analyses of organizational requirements.
		The market is a complex system frequently in a state of self-organized criticality, and in recent years the expanded number of investor roles, nodes in the investment network, have heightened this state.

	LoBue: Enterprise Evolution: Recommended Reading
		Complex systems thinking applied economics: observations of situations in which products and services generate increasing returns (rather than the traditional decreasing margin) over time.
		Lissack and Roos write simply and clearly suggesting that ideas from complexity science are not "complicated," they are in fact the "next common sense." They expand on this seemingly counter-intuitive theme in a book that discusses many real world business cases while inter-weaving a number of concepts from complexity and cognitive science.
		We think those who are familiar with complex systems theory will find this book provides an excellent case in point, de Geus just didn't have the benefit of the complex systems vocabulary to describe it.

	Complexity Measures for Rule-Based Programs (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Software complexity measures are quantitative estimates of the amount of effort required by a programmer to comprehend a piece of code.
		This paper presents a collection of software complexity measures that were specifically designed to quantify the conceptual complexity of rule-based programs.
		These measures are divided into two classes: bulk measures, which estimate complexity by examining aspects of program size, and rule measures, which gauge complexity based on the ways in which program rules interact with data and other rules.

	On (n,n-1) Convolutional Codes With Low Trellis Complexity
		We show that the state complexity profile of a convolutional code C is the same as that of the reciprocal of the dual code of C in case that minimal encoders for both codes are used.
		With this permutation, we are able to find many (n, n-1) binary convolutional codes which are better than punctured convolutional codes of the same code rate and memory size by either lower decoding complexity or better weight spectra.
