Complex Systems Research Lab (CSRL)
at M.I.T. is researching into ways to better manage complexity in the engineering domain - focussed on aerospace, but with applicability for other areas. Here a list of research activities as of October 2009.- Design for safety;
- Model-based system engineering;
- Reusable, component-based system architectures;
- Interactive visualization;
- Human-centered system design;
- System diagnosis and fault tolerance;
- System sustainability;
- System engineering of software-intensive systems;
- Comprehensive Risk Management in Complex Engineered Systems
"Organizing for a Complex World" is a A recent good paper on this, giving a number of new insights including emphasizing flexibility and resilience in process adoption.
Also, helping us understand complex systems that already exist is the Centre for Complex Systems Research. and, in Australia, "Complex Open Systems (COS) Research Network" .
