Abstract

Signaling networks are exemplified by systems as diverse as biological cells, economic markets, and the Web. After a discussion of some general characteristics of signaling networks, this article explores the adaptive evolution of complexity in a simple model of a signaling network. The article closes with a discussion of broader questions concerning the evolution of signaling networks.
