Abstract

This position paper discusses the potential contributions of the ‘operator hierarchy’ theory to the INBIOSA project. The operator hierarchy offers a fundamental, theoretical, multilevel methodology for analysing natural organisation. In this theory, the word ‘operators’ generically represents the physical particles and the organisms. The operators theory may act as a backbone for modelling approaches because it offers a general theory describing how hierarchical levels of organisation emerge along three dimensions: from interactions between operator, from the complexity increases within operator and from the complexity increases leading to higher level operators.
