[FRIAM] Any non-biological complex systems?

[Marcus Daniels]

High speed trading comes close to not involving people.    Other examples that come to mind involve some autonomous (biological) agent creating demand.   For example, energy or data or transportation networks are responding to a logistical demand created by people.   Netflix (vs. adaptive routing) is a demand created by people.

As companies like Google begin to build agents that build models and satisfy constraints the requests they initiate will become more adaptive.

Subject: [FRIAM] Any non-biological complex systems?

Are there any good examples of a complex system that doesn't involve biological organisms (including human beings)?
