Reality is Amorphous
Draw a line around the system boundary
Indicate the most important challenges the system must face
Indicate how the system interacts to face these challenges
What it means to draw that boundary line
You have defined the domain of success/failure that you want to understand.
You have identified the entities inside the boundary that are needed to achieve success (through their interactions). Thus, you have defined your system.
You have identified the entities outside the boundary that will pose the challenges/opportunities that must be managed by the system for the achievement of success.
You understand that it is the information that comes in from the outside entities and is processed by the inside entities – according to an established set of rules – that defines the functioning of the system.
The systems use of this established set of rules is based on the system’s working model of reality.
Core Ideas
Once a system’s purpose/aims and boundaries are known, then we have to understand the system’s structure and function.
A system’s structure describes the entities contained by the system and the particular way they are organized.
A system’s function describes how the entities interact with each other and how these interactions form the emergent properties of the system.
Emergent properties: The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
Remarkably, a great variety of different systems have similar structural and functional characteristics.
Understanding these commonalities will make our work much easier.
Once we get all this we will see that Complex Systems – no matter how complex – usually follow a small number of simple rules.
If we can understand the rules of the Complex System containing a domain of success we care about, then we understand the rules that lead to the domain of success we care about.

Anti-Racism Training: Exploring Systemic Racism with Systems ThinkingToby Sinclair
Workshop Purpose:
This Anti-Racism Training workshop aims to help participants understand the systemic nature of racism. In particular, how often solutions implemented fail to solve the systemic problem. Also how these "quick fixes" can have unintended side effects.
After the workshop participants will be in a better position to avoid the side effects of quick fixes and better tackle the deep-rooted systemic issues.
Learning Outcomes:
1. Understand how systems thinking can help with problem-solving.
2. Identify factors that influence racism and how these factors are interconnected.
3. Recognize potential side effects of “Quick Fixes”
4. Identify systemic solutions that better address the problem in a long term sustainable way.
5. Agreement on actions the participants can take to make progress within their context.
The training guide including agenda and materials can be found here: https://www.tobysinclair.com/anti-racism-training
Explains in short what is Systems Thinking, and its basic concepts. This PPT shows what is a System, its characteristics and what Systems thinking can do for us.

ANALYSIS OF A BUBBLE CHAMBER PICTURE
SUPERVISED BY:
19/05/2020
1. Introduction
A bubble chamber is a vessel filled with a superheated transparent liquid (most often liquid hydrogen) used to detect electrically charged particles moving through it. It was invented in 1952 by Donald A. Glaser, for which he was awarded the 1960 Nobel Prize in Physics.
A convenient way to study the properties of the fundamental subatomic particles is through observation of their bubble trails, or tracks, in a bubble chamber. Using measurements made directly on a bubble chamber photograph, we can often identify the particles from their tracks and calculate their masses and other properties. In a typical experiment, a beam of a particular type of particle is sent from an accelerator into a bubble chamber, which is a large liquid-filled vessel. To simplify the analysis of the data, the liquid used is often hydrogen, the simplest element. The use of liquid hydrogen, while it simplifies the analysis, complicates the experiment itself, since hydrogen, a gas at room temperature, liquefies only when cooled to -246◦C. For charged particles to leave tracks in passing through the chamber, the liquid must be in a “super-heated” state, in which the slightest disturbance causes boiling to occur. In practice, this is accomplished by expanding the vapor above the liquid with a piston a few thousandths of a second before the particles enter the chamber.

Make measurements on each of the photographs. In particular, for each of the circled events measure these four quantities:
· `Σ - The length of the Σ track,
· θ - the angle between the Σ− and π− track,
· s - the sagitta of the π− track,
· `π - The chord length of the π− track.
Your values for the event should be close to those given in the sample input. Run the program using each set of measurements, and tabulate the computed X0 mass from each event. Compute an average of the calculated masses and find the average deviation, expressing your result as Mx ±∆Mx.
Compare your final result with some known neutral particles listed below and identify the X0 particle based on this comparison.

2.2.2 Determination of the Angle θ.
The angle θ between the π− and Σ− momentum vectors can be determined by drawing tangents to the π− and Σ− tracks at the point of the Σ− decay.
We can then measure the angle between the tangents using a protractor. We can show.

Collins did not understand the events that led to the reasoning why and actions how Wells Fargo conveyed victories, achievements, and accomplishments. Therefore, Collins was incorrect. Wells Fargo as a company was able to achieve earning because of their successful strategies in profit revenue or turnover for each employee. The Good to Great article brought up that many people were surprised when finding out what made companies successful especially in relation to the leadership (Collins, 2001).
Our text states that it is difficult for companies to find good ethical leaders because they tend to be more expensive (Meese, Ortmeier, 2001). Unethical leadership is sure to bring the downfall of any business; it is impossible to have a successful business if there are unethical practices, the employees are also bound to begin these practices making it difficult for the company to hold their end of their promises to their customers or members.

Define civilization. Do we really need it in order to survive and prosper on this planet? The real question is whether we can live above subsistence without the technological innovations that cities generate. Moreover, the question is not as frivolous as it may seem at first glance. Many cultures throughout human history consciously decided not to take the route toward nucleated settlements and the resultant consequences. The Celts represent one example from the time line of our course of a people who preferred not to have cities. The Avars, a Turkic-speaking people from Central Asia, were pastoral nomads who acquired cities during the course of their conquests, yet they “used” cities in ways that would strike average city dwellers as most strange.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Class One
Introduction and Course Overview
2. 4
Reality is Amorphous
Draw a line around the system boundary
Indicate the most important challenges the system must face
3. Indicate how the system interacts to face these challenges
What it means to draw that boundary line
You have defined the domain of success/failure that you want to
understand.
You have identified the entities inside the boundary that are
needed to achieve success (through their interactions). Thus,
you have defined your system.
You have identified the entities outside the boundary that will
pose the challenges/opportunities that must be managed by the
system for the achievement of success.
You understand that it is the information that comes in from the
outside entities and is processed by the inside entities –
according to an established set of rules – that defines the
functioning of the system.
The systems use of this established set of rules is based on the
system’s working model of reality.
Core Ideas
Once a system’s purpose/aims and boundaries are known, then
we have to understand the system’s structure and function.
A system’s structure describes the entities contained by the
system and the particular way they are organized.
A system’s function describes how the entities interact with
each other and how these interactions form the emergent
properties of the system.
Emergent properties: The whole is greater than the sum of its
parts.
Remarkably, a great variety of different systems have similar
4. structural and functional characteristics.
Understanding these commonalities will make our work much
easier.
Once we get all this we will see that Complex Systems – no
matter how complex – usually follow a small number of simple
rules.
If we can understand the rules of the Complex System
containing a domain of success we care about, then we
understand the rules that lead to the domain of success we care
about.

6. System Boundaries: what’s in and what’s out
System components: what are the entities that comprise the
inside of the system?
System interactions: what governs the behavior about how the
systems entities interact with each other?
System purpose: What is the system ‘trying’ to accomplish?
What does success and failure mean related to this definition of
purpose?
System information processing: How does the system use
information to accomplish its purpose?
System dynamics: How does the system change over time and
why?
Regarding success: Always start by ‘planting your flag’.
Responding to Ever-Changing Environment
Adaptation concerns how a system maintains continuity over
time (survives) within the environment in which it is situated
To be successful (in surviving) a system needs to adjust to
changing circumstances and –especially - to changing
competitive landscape.
As we will see, the way the system takes in information from
the environment, transmits it across the system, and responds to
it, will be critical.
Success requires adaptation but is often more than survival. In a
way it means growing in the environment in a way that is
desired.
7. Behavior of System Elements
What are the entities that comprise the system?
How are they organized related to each other?
What is the structure of the system?
What is the structure of a Complex Adaptive System?
System Boundaries
What’s in/What’s out
Sometimes the answer is not so clear (because systems are
embedded within each other/hierarchically organized)
Knowing the correct boundary many require knowing the
correct question (and visa versa)
Observed Regularities
How we observe the behavior of entities within the system
How do they interact. What patterns/regularities do we observe?
Are entities behaving randomly or interacting in a way that
would not be expected by chance.
Once regularities are observed: What do they mean?
Important: The behavior of an entity may appear completely
random, until the system is brought into the picture.
Pattern of Emergent Behavior
With our observations of regularities/patterns of entities, we can
8. ask what does it mean for the system?
What is the system trying to accomplish? What is its purpose?
Such questions cannot be answered only at the level of
individual entities.
How does this work for the bird flock, the ant colony, the slime
mold, the Hanoi traffic community?
What are these systems trying to accomplish within their
defined environment?
System Regulation
Systems use information to increase or decrease activity across
the system
This is called regulation and is based on feedback to members
of the system who respond according to predefined rules.
Positive feedback concerns response to information (feedback)
that increases activity. It leads to system change.
Negative feedback concerns response to information (feedback)
that decreases activity. It leads to system stability.
This regulation best defined within causal loops of activity.

How Complex Systems Fail
Richard I. Cook, MD Cognitive technologies Laboratory
University of Chicago
Complex systems are intrinsically hazardous systems.
Complex Systems are heavily and successfully defended against
failure.
11. 3) Catastrophe requires multiple failures – single point failures
are not enough.
4) Complex systems contain changing mixtures of failures latent
within them.
5)
The Virtue of Failure
Risk is embedded in human (and non human) existence. Efforts
to eliminate risk (even if possible) limit possibilities to achieve
success
Most important – perhaps – is these efforts limit possibilities to
learn.
There is an important risk/reward tradeoff we must all grapple
with:
Too much focus on gaining reward through taking risks creates
instability and even the possibility of extinction
To much focus on avoiding risk limits opportunity for reward
and for learning (about own capabilities and about what the
environment can offer).

12. The Individual within the System
First Principles
A system needs to survive and succeed in its environment
Environments pose multiple possible sources of challenge at any
one time, and changing sources of challenge over the life of the
system.
The specific challenge a system will be exposed to at a given
time – and over time – is often unpredictable.
Therefore – to survive and succeed - systems need to contain a
great variety of ways of addressing the challenges they might
encounter.
This is the foundation of diversity
It is also the foundation of the individual

18. What’s the point??
A system’s capacity to succeed is based on diversity
Explorers have less fear and more need for reward
Nesters have more fear and are more sensitive to signals of
threat. More focused on security of system.
Communicators pick up and transmit signals and assist with
reward and security.
Versions of this are found in all human groups (families,
organizations, societies)

How Systems Use Information
Basic Definitions
Information:
A change in a physical process (e.g. sensation) received by a
Knowledge System that the Knowledge System uses to reduce
uncertainty about its environment (external and internal).
Examples:
A change in the patterns of photons received by a birds’ retina
that indicates the presence of an obstacle (a tree) 25 feet ahead.
A change in water pressure received by the scales of 100
sardines indicating the location and speed of an approaching
object (a shark) and causing the 100 sardines to move in a
specific pattern.
A change in revenue of a technology company received by 100
investors who believe such change is important enough to
withdraw a proportion of their investment in the company,
leading to a reduction in stock price of the technology company.
A change in the pattern of photons received by your retina that
indicates the presence of a cigar in a wall.
Uncertainty:
The state of a Knowledge System regarding the possibilities
contained in its environment. The function (and definition) of
information enables a knowledge system to reduce these
possibilities.
Entropy:
20. The number of possible configurations accessible to a physical
system. Information is NegEntropy (i.e. it reduces uncertainty).
Basic Definitions
Knowledge System:
A collection of interacting entities (a system) that is configured
(structured) in such a way that information can be used to
reduce uncertainty about the systems’ environment. The specific
configuration, and pattern of interactions, of the system form a
working model of the systems’ environment.
Examples:
How the birds’ brain (i.e. knowledge system) uses the change in
the patterns of photons (i.e. information) received by a birds’
retina to determine the presence of an obstacle (a tree) 25 feet
ahead.
How the school of sardines (i.e. knowledge system) uses a
change in water pressure felt by the scales of 100 sardines (i.e.
information) to determine the location and speed of an
approaching object (a shark).
How a community of investors (i.e. knowledge system) uses a
change in investment patterns of 100 investors (i.e. information)
to reduce the price of the technology stock.
How a human’s brain (i.e. knowledge system) uses a change in
the pattern of photons (i.e. information) received by a human’s
retina to determine the presence of a cigar in a wall.
Important: Knowledge Systems can be seen at multiple scales
The bird’s brain vs. the flock of birds
The brain of a sardine vs. the sardine school
The investors brain vs. the community of investors
Your brain vs. the classroom of students
21. Basic Definitions
Learning:
How a Knowledge System updates the way it is configured –
based on new information – to change the way it can reduce
uncertainty about its environment. This leads to the system
possessing an adjusted working model of its environment.
Examples:
How a birds’ brain produces a greater shift in the direction of
the bird when it receives a similar pattern of information, after
the bird grazes the tree with its wing.
How a school of sardines produces greater ability to avoid
predators when a gene mutation that leads to greater sensitivity
to changes in water pressure, spreads through the population.
How a community of investors begin to use information on the
investment behavior of more than 100 investors, after losing a
lot of money based on their disinvestment in the technology
stock.
How your brain now sees a cigar in every wall (presented to it
in a lecture by Dr. Saxe).
Important: A change in a working model is not necessarily an
improvement in a working model (but over many trials over a
long period of time, change usually means improvement).
Basic Definitions
Memory:
How a Knowledge System stores adjustments to its
configurations in the form of updated working models of its
environment, such that these updates can be used to process new
information.
22. Expertise:
The capacity of a Knowledge System to form, update, store, and
access working models of its environment such that these
working models can provide the means to effectively use
information to reduce uncertainty of the environment.
Success always involves the application of expertise in this way
(for any area of success you may care about).
What is Information?
Information reduces uncertainty by reducing the number of
possibilities.
Think of the last time you received ‘news’ about anything. The
moment just after you received the news, the number of
possibilities was far less than just before.
At its foundation: Information is transmitted in bits. Bits are- in
essence- answers to yes/no questions.
All information is reducible to answers to yes/no questions.
This is how computers work and it is probably how the brain
works.
In this way, everything is reducible to games of Twenty
Questions.
Think of that game as a process of reducing uncertainty (about
anything).
Two related questions when we consider the use of information
by any system:
How does the system itself use information?
How does an observer of the system determine how the system
is using information?

How Systems Change
Core Ideas
Complex Systems change in specific ways
This change is based on risk/reward information received and
guided by the systems’ working model of its environment
25. The process of change in complex systems tend to follow
patterns of non-linear dynamics
Changes in such systems - towards both success and failure -
follow patterns of non-linear dynamics
Understanding how a system succeeds or fails requires
knowledge of these non-linear dynamic patterns
Important to distinguish two types of change:
Changes in system behavior – based on information received –
according to the systems working model (i.e. its characteristic
behavior)
Changes to the working model itself (i.e. learning)

What is an Expert?
A New Basic Definition
Success:
Success is problem-solving and requires the application of
appropriate expertise to find and achieve solutions to the given
problem.
A Problem: A meaningful challenge to a system from its
environment
Problem-solving: The process of reducing the number of
29. possible solutions to the problem to the one(s) that will address
the challenge (achieve the solution)
Finding the solution: The Knowledge Systems’ ability to
effectively reduce the possibilities (i.e. reduce uncertainty)
Achieving the solution: The Knowledge Systems’ ability to
execute interventions to the environment that results in
sufficient diminution of the challenge.
Some Problems
The Mice:
How to know the location and valiance of food and predators
such that we can maintain the size of our population over time?
You (re a Quiz):
How to know what Saxe is talking about such that his questions
make any sense to me and I can put down the correct answer?
The Candy Bar Company:
How to set the right price for our Candy Bar that maximizes our
profits?
A Dance Company:
How to launch our next show that maintains our artistic
integrity and sells enough tickets so that we can pay our bills?
A Football Team:
How to win todays game, even though our Quarterback is
injured and we have not defeated our opponents in the last 2
seasons?
Solving These Problems Require:
30. A Knowledge System that defines the problem accurately
A Knowledge System that attends to the right information from
the environment related to the problem definition
A Knowledge System that understands how to use the right
information to reduce possibilities
A Knowledge System equipped to enact interventions that are
effective for addressing the problem
A Knowledge System that is able to detect the impact of its
interventions and to use this information to update its relevant
working model
Was the problem defined accurately?
Was the right information used to reduce possibilities?
Were possibilities reduced sufficient to arrive at the right
solution?
Was the intervention executed according to the determined
solution?
Is there anything else that was missed?
A Knowledge System that is able to store the updates to its
working model for a more effective intervention towards the
problem, the next time the problem is encountered.
And that is Expertise
Leave right after class
Don’t stop to talk with friends
Don’t stop to go to the bathroom
Get to class on time, 90%
Working Model: If I start walking right when class ends and I
don’t stop to talk with friends on the way, and I don’t go to the
bathroom on my way, I will get to my next class on time.

performance and will lead to good reviews and good ‘word of
mouth’ buzz. This, more than anything else, will drive ticket
sales: our main source of revenue. Additionally, the actress and
director must make sure that the role is interpreted in a
compelling way for our likely audience and –
given the nature of this role – the right costume will be very
important.

Where does expertise come from?
Core Ideas
A Knowledge System expresses expertise through the quality of
its working models of its environment.
A working model expresses a domain of ‘knowledge’ and the
domain of knowledge is useful for a specific purpose: to solve a
specific problem
Success is problem-solving and requires the application of
appropriate expertise to find and achieve solutions to the given
problem.
Where does a Knowledge Systems’ knowledge (working
models) come from?
What is knowledge?
Knowledge is a defined process for using information
This defined process specifies a set of rules for how relevant
information should be used to solve a specific problem (i.e.
knowledge is algorithmic)
Its value to a Knowledge System is based on its capacity to
solve specific problems related to challenges to the system from
its environment
35. Knowledge gains in value over time through improvements,
based on experience with versions of the problem that needs to
be solved
Knowledge improved over generations can be extremely
valuable, given the amount of experience that has gone into its
refinement.
Knowledge can be biological (genes) or organizational/cultural
(memes).
The Test of Time
Most forms of knowledge (biological and
organizational/cultural) have been abandoned because the
specific knowledge did not impart sufficient value for solving
problems. Knowledge that is now ‘here’ has ‘passed’ the test-
of-time.
This does not mean that all such forms of knowledge are good
and that none should be abandoned. Its simply to say that we
need to have a lot of humility in abandoning knowledge
transmitted across generations (due to the vastly limited
perspective of all individuals).
This is one reason that the art-of-life is subtle, complex, and
difficult.
Two common mistakes in understanding the causes of success
37. Knowledge passed
to future generations
Knowledge: Two Forms
Contemporary Knowledge: Stored and accessible configurations
within a Knowledge System that were obtained via learning
processes from the direct experience of members of the system
Historic Knowledge: Stored and accessible configurations

processes that predate the lifespan of current members of the
system

Changing the game: Innovation
38. Core Ideas
Given a perpetually changing environmental landscape, the
capacity for a biological system or social/organizational system
to succeed is based on the system’s capacity to generate and use
new knowledge to face challenge.
This is the innovation process. We will call such new
knowledge needed by the system to face challenges: ‘ideas’
Ultimately, all ideas have a physical form and this physical
form is transmitted as ideas across systems
Ideas that contains survival value and value for a system
achieving its purpose is more likely to spread broadly (and
rapidly) across the system: and even jump between similar
systems.
Some systems are better than others for spreading ideas. This is
a question about the system infrastructure for innovation.
