The constrained-disorder principle defines the functions of systems in nature
Y Ilan - Frontiers in Network Physiology, 2024 - frontiersin.org
The Constrained Disorder Principle (CDP) defines all systems in nature by their degree of
inherent variability. Per the CDP, the intrinsic variability is mandatory for their proper function …
