生命系统是分层组织的。许多组成部分通过每个层面（从生物体到物种到生态系统）的多重相互作用而联系在一起。这种组合和层次的复杂性是计算和概念上的挑战。我们需要新的方法来确定大型交互网络的关键组成部分，并且需要更好地理解它们如何水平（在同一级别）和垂直（组织级别之间）影响系统动态。我们提供了各种交互网络（动物社会群体、食物网、景观）的示例，并讨论如何动态链接它们。
Living systems are hierarchically organised. A number of components are linked by the multiplicity of interactions at each level (from organisms to species to ecosystems). This kind of compositional and hierarchical complexity is a computational and conceptual challenge. We need new approaches to determine the key components of large interaction networks and we need to better understand how they influence the system dynamics horizontally (at the same level) and vertically (between organisational levels). We provide examples for various interaction networks (animal social group, food web, landscape) and discuss how to dynamically link them.
