Tredinnick, Luke (2009) Complexity Theory and the Web. Journal of Documentation, 65 (5). pp. 797-816. ISSN 0022-0418

Abstract

This paper aims to explore the influence of complexity theory on the development of the web. It seeks to critique the role of complexity theory as a governing metaphor in the discourse of the web, and to examine whether complexity theory is able to provide an adequate description of the web, and its relationship to society and knowledge.
