A. Scharnhorst: Constructing Knowledge Landscapes within the Framework of Geometrically Oriented Evolutionary Theories. In: Integrative Systems Approaches to Natural and Social Sciences – Systems Science 2000. Ed. by M. Matthies, H. Malchow, J. Kriz. Springer, Berlin, 2001, pp. 505-515

In this paper we discuss how geometrically oriented evolution theories (G_O_E_THE) may represent an appropriate framework for the empirical design of such knowledge landscapes as well as for theoretical explanations of observable, dynamic processes therein. G_O_E_THE describes evolution as a competitive hill-climbing process of different searchers or searching groups in an unknown adaptive landscape over a continuous characteristics space. In this chapter we discuss the application of this framework to the dynamics of national science systems in the international scientific communication system.

Fuzzy Set Theory (or Fuzzy Logic) to Represent the Messy Data of Complex Human (and other) Systems

Co-authored with Emery A. Coppola, Jr.

This situation... more Historians and Human Geographers deal with human systems or subsystems of considerable complexity. This situation presents a dilemma to those who use computational technologies, which demand a high level of precision to organize, analyze, and visualize information: the more complex the system is, the greater the imprecision of the available data. Historians and geographers often feel that their imprecise, ambiguous, contradictory, messy, largely qualitative information does not “fit” well in the available software categories, and they have trouble discussing the results produced when they work within computational environments because category assignment seems so arbitrary. This dilemma appears dramatically with the use of Geographically-Integrated History (GIH) as a research strategy. In this paper, we introduce fuzzy set theory (or fuzzy logic) as a proven solution for dealing with imprecision in complex systems.
