This award will support a seminar, "Dynamics of Complex Interconnected          Biological Systems", organized jointly by Prof. Thomas L. Vincent of            the University of Arizona, Tucson, and Prof. A.I. Mees of the                   University of Western Australia.  Participants will meet in Albany,             Western Australia, in January 1989 to identify and begin to address             problems in the modeling of complex interconnected biological                   systems.  This seminar will bring together experts in game theory and           chaos theory, both of which are playing an increasingly important               role in the understanding of evolutionary processes in interconnected           systems, in an attempt to take advantage of the synergy of interdis-            ciplinary overlap.                                                                                                                                              Recent developments in both game theory and chaos theory have led to            an improved understanding of dynamical systems; while game theory is            ideal for understanding interconnected systems, chaos theory is                 leading to a complementary understanding of complex systems.                    Biological systems, which are generally both complex and intercon-              nected, are a suitable arena in which to bring the two disciplines              together to resolve fundamental problems existing in biological                 modeling.  The University of Western Australia is the home of an                active dynamical systems group and this workshop will also take                 advantage of already-existing research ties between the Australian              and U.S. participants.
