increasing the size of structures to vast dimensions either in art or in nature; … also it would be impossible to build up the bony structures of men, horses, or other animals so as to hold together and perform their normal functions . . . for if his height be increased inordinately he will fall and be crushed under his own weight.” - Galileo Galilei
the overall weight • The amount of cells surpasses capillaries’ ability to supply energy • All available energy used for repairing consequences of entropy CITIES • Overcrowding • Crime rates • Pollution • Spread of diseases COMPANIES • Sublinear scaling of sales, incomes, and profits • Bureaucracy • Administration and management complexity SOFTWARE SYSTEMS ?

ecosystems, cities, or corporations, require the close integration of enormous numbers of their constituent units that need e ff icient servicing at all scales. This has been accomplished in living systems by evolving fractal-like, hierarchical branching network systems.” - Geo ff rey West

Local Complexity Loose Coupling Global Complexity LOW DISTANCE HIGH DISTANCE • High cost of cascading changes • High shared knowledge • Frequent cascading changes
possible 2. Balance integration strength and distance • Both are high? — Reduce distance • Both are low? — Increase distance 3. Repeat at all levels of abstraction APPLYING M=S^D
for dealing with complexity is abstraction. Many types of abstraction can be used, but encapsulation is the main form of abstraction by which complexity is managed in object-oriented programming.” - Rebecca Wirfs-Brock
