Charting a Course for “Complexity”: Metamodeling, Ruliology and More

Stephen Wolfram

SEPTEMBER 23, 2021

For three centuries theoretical models had been based on the fairly narrow set of constructs provided by mathematical equations, and particularly calculus. But—in something akin to the process of metamodeling—we can ask: What is the essence of what we want to communicate in the word? In some ways, ruliology is like natural science.

How Did We Get Here? The Tangled History of the Second Law of Thermodynamics

Stephen Wolfram

And indeed particularly in chemistry and engineering it’s often been in the background, justifying all the computations routinely done using entropy. Later he describes what he calls the “Principle of the Communication of Heat”. There was also a sense that regardless of its foundations, the Second Law was successfully used in practice.
