Information Technology is key to today’s modern world. Scientific theories introduced in the last five decades can now be realized with the latest computational infrastructure. Modeling and simulation, along with Big Data technologies are at the forefront of such exploration and investigation. The text offers a number of simulation-based methods, technologies, and approaches that are designed to encourage the reader to incorporate simulation technologies to further their understanding of emergent behavior in complex systems. The authors present a resource for those designing, developing, managing, operating, and maintaining systems, including system of systems. The guide is designed to help better detect, analyse, understand, and manage the emergent behaviour inherent in complex systems engineering in order to reap the benefits of innovations and avoid the dangers of unforeseen consequences. This vital resource: Presents coverage of a wide range of simulation technologies Explores the subject of emergence through the lens of Modeling and Simulation (M&S) Offers contributions from authors at the forefront of various related disciplines such as philosophy, science, engineering, sociology, and economics Contains information on the next generation of complex systems engineering Written for researchers, lecturers, and students, Emergent Behavior in Complex Systems Engineering provides an overview of the current discussions on complexity and emergence, and shows how systems engineering methods in general and simulation methods in particular can help in gaining new insights in complex systems engineering.Stevens Institute series on complex systems and enterprises.Systems engineeringSystem designSystems engineering.System design.620.001/1Mittal SaurabhDiallo Saikou Y.Tolk AndreasMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910270923503321Emergent behavior in complex systems engineering2121030UNINA04015nam 2200577 a 450 991078319260332120230421041948.00-8047-8016-110.1515/9780804780162(CKB)1000000000006799(OCoLC)50119844(CaPaEBR)ebrary2001222(SSID)ssj0000283605(PQKBManifestationID)11213361(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000283605(PQKBWorkID)10247581(PQKB)10578647(MiAaPQ)EBC3037366(Au-PeEL)EBL3037366(CaPaEBR)ebr2001222(OCoLC)923699422(DE-B1597)581480(DE-B1597)9780804780162(EXLCZ)99100000000000679919960809d1997 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtccrRendering French realism[electronic resource] /Lawrence R.

At Home with --Notes --Bibliography --IndexRealist novels are usually seen as verisimilar representations of the world, and even when that verisimilitude is critically examined (as it has been by Marxist and feminist critics), the criticism has referred to extra-literary matters, such as bourgeois ideology or defects in the portrayal of women. This book takes as its thesis that the point defining realism is the point at which the processes of representation break down, a sort of black hole of textuality, a rent in the tissue. The author argues that our notions of continuity, of readability, of representability, or our ideas about unity and ideological shift—or even our notions of what is hidden, occulted, or absent—all come from the nineteenth-century realist model itself. Instead of assuming representability, the author argues that we should look at places where the texts do not continue the representationalist model, where there is a sudden falling off, an abyss. Instead of seeing that point as a shortcoming, the author argues that it is equal to the mimetic successes of representation. After an initial chapter dealing with the limits and ruptures of textuality, the book considers the work of Stendhal, from its early state as a precursor to the later realism to La Chartreuse de Parme, which shows how the act of communication for Stendhal is always made of silences, gaps, and interruptions. The author then reads several works of Balzac, showing how he, while setting up the praxes of continuity on which his oeuvre depends, ruptures the works at various strategic points. In a chapter entitled "Romantic Interruptions," works of Nerval and the younger Dumas, seemingly unrelated to the realist project, are shown to be marked by the ideological, representational, and semiotic assumptions that produced Balzac. The book concludes with Flaubert, looking both at how Flaubert incessantly makes things "unfit" and how critics, even the most perspicacious postmodern ones, often try to smooth over the permanent crisis of rupture that is the sign of Flaubert's writing.French fiction19th centuryHistory and criticismRealism in literatureFrench fictionHistory and criticism.Realism in literature.843/.70912Schehr Lawrence R1513313MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910783192603321Rendering French realism3844971UNINA
