The properties of the collection may not be understood or predicted from the full knowledge of its constituents alone.

The goal of the conference theme is to better understand societies with the purpose of using this understanding for a more efficient management and development of social systems.}, isbn = {9780262339360}, url = {https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/proceedings-artificial-life-conference-2016}, editor = {Carlos Gershenson and Tom Froese and Jesus M.
