Topic: Self-Organizing Information Systems Cross-listed with LIS 590 SOS. This research seminar will investigate self-organizing properties of complex information systems and ways of designing adaptive, self-organizing information collections. Some examples of self-organizing information systems include collaborative filtering systems, adaptive websites, market-based information economies, self-generating language communities, and personal information collections. A methodological focus of the seminar will be the use of simulation methods as an investigative and design tool.
