Abstract

Genome complexity is correlated with biological complexity. A recent paper by Michael Lynch proposes that evolution of complex genomic architecture was driven primarily by non‐adaptive stochastic forces, rather than by adaptive evolution.1 A general negative relationship between selection efficiency and genome complexity provides a strong support for this hypothesis. The broad capacity of this theory is both its appeal and source for criticism. BioEssays 28: 979–982, 2006. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## I n this paper, we investigate methods of reducing the computational complexity of the discrete cosine transform (DCT) in a software video encoder. The number of DCT calculations may be reduced by modeling the distribution of zero blocks. We demonstrate that the reduction in computational compl

Kauffman's N K model-used for studying the performance of systems consisting of a finite number of components that interact with each other in complex ways-exhibits the complexity catastrophe, in which high levels of interaction in systems with a large number of components lead to a decrease in perf
