ИСТИНА

Spatial-temporal patterns formed in systems far from thermodynamic equilibrium are widely spread in nature. They are observed in systems of different nature: physical, chemical, biological. We will give some examples of complex self-organization both presented by natural living systems and by experimental chemical reactions. Then we will demonstrate that the so-called block models, which are composed of two or more submodels, interacting with each other, can often effectively explain mechanisms of such phenomena.
