Foil 33 Complex Systems to give a Theory of Computing

From Programming Paradigms A CRPC/MCNC Workshop -- April 10-13 1995. by Geoffrey C. Fox
Both problems and computer are
Collections of homogeneous or heterogeneous basic entities with some sort of static or dynamic connection between them
Modeling involves mapping one "complex problem" into another
Simulation or parallel computing involves map
    • Complex problem ---> Complex Computer
What parameters of these two underlying complex systems control effectiveness of map?
