دانشمندان دریافته اند که سیستم های "کامل" ممکن است به طرز شگفت آوری شکننده باشند

Scientists find that “perfect” systems may be surprisingly fragile

Complex systems may work better when their parts are not perfectly alike. Northwestern physicists found that carefully balanced variation, or “disorder,” can make networks such as power grids, ecosystems, neurons, and materials more stable. Even random differences sometimes improved stability compared with completely uniform systems. The discovery could help researchers design more resilient technologies and explain…
