Холланд, Джон Генри: Цитаты на английском языке

“Model building is the art of selecting those aspects of a process that are relevant to the question being asked.”

Контексте: Model building is the art of selecting those aspects of a process that are relevant to the question being asked. As with any art, this selection is guided by taste, elegance, and metaphor; it is a matter of induction, rather than deduction. High science depends on this art.

“When a new building block is discovered, the result is usually a range of innovations.”

“The multiplier effect is a major feature of networks and flows. It arises regardless of the particular nature of the resource, be it goods, money, or messages.”

“Even though these complex systems differ in detail, the question of coherence under change is the central enigma for each.”

“There is more of a mystery to the origin of the pin factory that Adam Smith (1776) discusses in his Wealth of Nations than is generally realized.”

“If we are to understand the interactions of a large number of agents, we must first be able to describe the capabilities of individual agents.”

“This use of building blocks to generate internal models is a pervasive feature of complex adaptive systems.”

“nonlinear interactions almost always make the behavior of the aggregate more complicated than would be predicted by summing or averaging.”

“Particular individuals do not recur, but their building blocks do.”

“Unwrapping occurs when the "solution" is explicitly built into the program from the start.”

“Looking back to data, we can see if the consequences are plausible; looking forward to theory, we can see if general principles are suggested.”

“The measure of performance of any given agent is the amount of money it accumulates through its actions.”

“The recycling of resource by the aggregate behavior of a diverse array of agents is much more than the sum of the individual actions.”

“Evolution continually innovates, but at each level it conserves the elements that are recombined to yield the innovations.”
