Cultural advice

The Australian National University acknowledges, celebrates and pays our respects to the Ngunnawal and Ngambri people of the Canberra region and to all First Nations Australians on whose traditional lands we meet and work, and whose cultures are among the oldest continuing cultures in human history.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are advised that ANU Library collections may include images, names, voices, and other representations of deceased persons.

Material in the collection may contain terms, language or views that reflect the period in which the item was created and may be considered inappropriate today.

dc.description.abstractA smart system exhibits the four important properties: (i) Interactive, Collective, coordinated and Parallel Operation (ii) Self-organization through emergent properties (iii) Power law scaling under emergence (iv) Adaptive and Flexible operation. We describe the role of fractal and percolation model for understanding smart systems. A hierarchy based on metric entropy is suggested among the computational systems that transcend from the unsmart to the smart system through a phase transition like phenomenon. Understanding smart systems is useful to solve hard-optimization problem inspired by the self-organizing processes found in nature.
