What is elasticity?
The ability to recover strength, spirits, good humor or other aspect quickly.

Elasticity can be seen as the ability to survive and persist within a variable environment, how?
Systems are resilient, but there is a limit. What is the opposite of resilience?
What is meta resilience?
A set of feedback loops that can restore or rebuild feedback loops is resilience at a still higher level.
input text value
Self organizing systems have even higher meta resilience, how?
From feedback loops that can learn, create and evolve ever more complex restorative structures.
input text value
Systems need to be managed not only for productivity or stability but also for resilience, why?
Otherwise they get in danger to keep existing.
input text value
How can resilient systems be very dynamic?
Short-term oscillations, outbreaks, long cycles of succession, climax or collapse are normal conditions that resilience acts to restore.

What is often sacrificed for purposes of short-term productivity and stability?
Simple organizing rules lead to?
What is a hierarchy?
How does a hierarchy give systems resilience and stability?
Why are hierarchical systems partially decomposable?
What will happen when complex systems evolve from simple systems only if there are stable intermediate forms?
How do hierarchical systems evolve from the bottom up?
How does the hierarchy helps systems?
What is suboptimization?
What must the hierarchy do to be a highly functional system?
Hierarchy is about?
