<b>Pierre</b>-<b>André</b> Noël et al. - cond-mat.stat-mech - Statistical Mechanics Posted: 09 May 2013 12:31 AM PDT Pierre-André Noël, Charles D. Brummitt, Raissa M. D'Souza Controlling self-organizing systems is challenging because the system responds to the controller. Here we develop a model that captures the essential self-organizing mechanisms of Bak-Tang-Wiesenfeld (BTW) sandpiles on networks, a self-organized critical (SOC) system. This model enables studying a simple control scheme that determines the frequency of cascades and that shapes systemic risk. We show that optimal strategies exist for generic cost functions and that controlling a subcritical system may drive it to criticality. This approach could enable controlling other self-organizing systems. View original: http://arxiv.org/abs/1305.1877
