In complex systems on the boundary between stability and chaos, the degree of interconnectedness per node is constant. Complex systems always evolve to this boundary because stable systems aren't complex and chaotic systems can't be incrementally updated. In my thesis ( http://cs.fit.edu/~mmahoney/thesis.html ) I did not estimate the communication bandwidth. But it is O(n log n) because the distance between nodes grows as O(log n). For each message sent or received, a node must also relay O(log n) messages. If the communication protocol is natural language text, then I am pretty sure our existing networks can handle it. -- Matt Mahoney, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- This list is sponsored by AGIRI: http://www.agiri.org/email To unsubscribe or change your options, please go to: http://v2.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=71684400-910726
