Recombination and complexity: The case of automobile

URL:

Résumé:

From the theory of complex systems (Arthur, 2009), this paper aims to: 1) analyse technological change from the perspective of the phenomena exploited by the acceleration system; 2) explain how - through structural deepening and recombination - a simple system becomes into a complex one; 3) recognise the importance of rules and strategies used by agents in order to produce new technologies; 4) study the problem of unintentional acceleration of Toyota Camry-2005. © 2020 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.
