Structure and System Concepts The notion of structure In mathematics and in physics In computer science In human, social and life sciences The systemic paradigm The systemic triangle The whole is greater than the sum of its parts The notion of organization Structure and organization Sequential organizations Organization in classes and partitions Organizations in trees Network organization Hierarchical organizations The use of the graph theory for complex organizations Complexity of an organization, from determinism to chaos Chapter 2. Space and Geometry Different theories of space Euclidian models Metric spaces... 32

Time and Dynamics Time Temporalities Life interval T Minimum time step dt Time base B T Activity support of a phenomenon σ Phenomenon with discrete (or isolated) support Phenomenon with continuous or piecewise continuous support Events, processes Morphological discretization of a phenomenon Billiard balls example Temporality of a spatial process Decomposition of a complex process An epistemic choice: reciprocal dependency between the complexity levels of a phenomenon Chapter 6. Spatial Interaction Presentation of the concept Definition of macroscopic interaction The four elementary (inter)actions Microscopic interaction like a multigraph Composition of successive interactions The configurations and the trajectories of a simulation are categories Intermediary level matrix representation Examples of interactions Flux and transport Movement of an object in space Collision between two objects Accumulation by confluence Centrifugal distribution Equalization through communication vases First definition of the notion of spatial system Part 1.
