This letter uses a modified form of the NK model introduced to explore aspects of distributed control. In particular, a previous result suggesting the use of dynamically formed subgroups within the overall system can be more effective than global con...

Nonbinary representations in the NK and NKCS models (2022)
Journal Article
Bull, L. (2022). Nonbinary representations in the NK and NKCS models. Complex Systems -Champaign-, 31(1), 87-101. https://doi.org/10.25088/ComplexSystems.31.1.87

The NK model has been used widely to explore aspects of natural evolution and complex systems. Traditionally, the model has used a binary representation scheme. This paper introduces a modified form of the NK model through which to systematically exp... Read More about Nonbinary representations in the NK and NKCS models.
