Modelling, analysis and sensory metrication towards a quantitative understanding of complexity in systems

Abstract

Modelling and metrication of the complexity of systems have occupied a growing and largely underdeveloped problem space in the literature of complex systems. In this research, preliminary results depicting the complexity of a service system premised on a tertiary institution of learning is presented. The concept deployed focused on modelling the trio core entities viz: functional elements, physical elements and the intricacy of connectivity associated with the flow of signals in the normal systemic operations. The numerous activities depicting diversity and multiplicity were holistically enumerated prior to sensing and metrication. The outcome of this research underscores effectiveness in the proposed model.
