On Phenomenology of Complex Scientific Systems
Published 21 Feb 2011 in physics.soc-ph, physics.acc-ph, and physics.pop-ph | (1102.4350v2)
Abstract: Performance evolution of a number of complex scientific and technical systems demonstrate exponential progress with time exp(+t/C) . The speed of progress C - a measure of difficulty and complexity - is analyzed for high energy elementary particle colliders, astrophysical searches for galaxies and exoplanets, protein structure determination and compared with computers and thermonuclear fusion reactors. An explanation of the characteristic exponential progress is offered.
