Multiplicity and Interdisciplinarity

Gianfranco Minati is founder and president of the Italian Systems Society. He is author, coauthor and editor of several academic publications. His current research interests focus on 1) Modelling Processes of Emergence by using Meta-Structures; 2) the Emerging of a Post-Bertalanffy Systemics; 3) the Dynamic Usage of Models (DYSAM) and Logical Openness; 4) Architecture and Design as the Design of Social Meta-structures to Influence Processes of Emergence in Social Systems; 5) and Prime Numbers Distribution in Number Theory.
