Coherence /

Mostrar otras versiones (1)

"Coherence, connectivity and the fitting together of smaller parts into larger structures are the hallmark of complex biologically-based organized systems. As an internal constraint, coherence allows the parts to work together as a whole. As an external constraint, it lets systems evolve and ad...
