Effective complexity

Effective complexity is a measure of complexity defined in a 1996 paper by Murray Gell-Mann and Seth Lloyd that attempts to measure the amount of non-random information in a system. It has been criticised as being dependent on the subjective decisions made as to which parts of the information in the system are to be discounted as random. (Wikipedia).

Evaluation 3: effectiveness vs. efficiency

Search engines must be effective and efficient. An "effective" engine returns the results that are useful to its users (relevant results). An "efficient" engine responds to request quickly and does not require unrealistic computing resources. In this lecture we discuss how to measure both

What Are Reactive Systems?

Reactive Systems use a high-performance software architecture. They are resilient under stress, and their reactive design allows them to scale elastically to meet demand. The reactive design approach allows the creation of more complex, more flexible systems and forms the basis for some of

Organometallic Reactions Part 1: Ligand Substitution and the Trans Effect

We are finally ready to start learning about organometallic reactions! There are many ways in which transition metal complexes can react. The first type of reaction we will learn is ligand substitution. This is when one ligand is swapped for a different ligand. To understand how this works
