Abstract: I will present a simple biologically inspired computational model of selection or election process, so called Game of Choosing, GoC. Due to multiple repetitions of a simple iteration chaos can emerge in the system in which the process takes place - state of the system after certain time period strongly depends on initial conditions and on boundary conditions. Several special cases will be discussed.

Brief Biography of the Speaker:
Wlodzimierz Klonowski, Ph.D., D.Sc. holds a Master of Science (M.S.) in Physics with specialization in Biophysics, from the University of Warsaw (1968), Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) from the Institute of Physics, Polish Academy of Sciences (1973), and Doctor of Science (D.Sc.) in Biophysics from Humboldt University, Berlin (1990). He has worked as a professor of Physics in the French-speaking l’Univesite National du Zaire a Kinshasa, Republic of Congo, as a Max Planck Fellow at MPI fur Biophysikalische Chemie in Goettingen, as a visiting professor at Brandeis University in Waltham, MA, as the President of Canadian Consulting and Tutoring Services at Halifax, NS. In addition to being a researcher, a professor, and an author, he has been a distinguished member of several organizations including Polish Physical Society, European Physical Society, New York Academy of Sciences, American Association of
University Professors, and American Association for the Advancement of Science. He is a Bio-Scientific Advisory Board Member of the International Brain Research Foundation Inc. New York, Vice-President and Board Member of the International Consortium for Uncertainty Theory (ICUT), and a Board Member of the International Association for Information and Management Sciences (IMS), Beijing.
He is currently a Professor at the Nalecz Institute of Biocybernetics and Biomedical Engineering Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw, and is the Head of the Lab of Biosignal Analysis Fundamentals. He has been active for more than 40 years in the theory of complex nonlinear systems with applications in medicine and biology. He was an initiator and organizer of a series of European Summer Schools EUROATTRACTOR. He has contributed seriously to the theory of structure-property relationships in crosslinked polymer materials through his topological theory of networks, so called Systems with Discrete Interactions. Currently, he is involved in the research on nonlinear methods of biosignal analysis and its applications for monitoring the depth of anesthesia and for assessment of medical therapies.
Prof. Klonowski is the Founding Editor and an Editor-in-Chief of Nonlinear Biomedical Physics, an interdisciplinary open access journal (BioMed Central, London, part of Springer Science+Business Media). His biograms are included in several European and American Who’s Who’s, in Wikipedia, and he has a molecular informational structure named after him (Klonowski-Klonowska Conformon, term proposed by S.Ji in ‘Molecular Theories of Cell Life and Death’, Rutgers U. Press, 1991). W.Klonowski is also interested in philosophical problems, in particular in theory of consciousness, and emotions vs logical thinking, that he proposed to call Chaosensology.
