Definition from Research Days'08 (1)
A selforganizing system (SOS) is a system that uses simple local rules to achieve complex global behavior. Additional precodnitions to this definition include:
- Multiple units/entities
- Communication among some of the entities
- Adaptive based on external measurements/events
- Observer
- No hard coded solutions by the designer
Definition from Research Days'08 (2)
A self-organizing system (SOS) is a set of entities that obtains global system behavior via local interactions without centralized control.
Definition from Research Days'08 (3)
A system shows self-organizing behavior if it is autonomous, adaptive, and its organization and function is an emergent property.
