Physics of Systems – New Conception and Technologies for Simulating Emergent Properties in Complex Systems

The methods and the instruments of the ‘Physics of Systems’ are the universal tools, which can be applied for the study of complex objects, processes and phenomena of any nature. The scientific method and techniques of the ‘Physics of Systems’ are realized in the form of the scientific technology cluster based on the ‘Technology of the System Reconstructions’ providing the scientific, methodological and programming support of the large scale interdisciplinary projects in the field of system investigations related to the problems of medicine, biology, human and territorial ecology, economics and security.

Global system reconstructions of the models of solar activity and related geospheric and biospheric effects – one of the projects
