I see that Juarrero defines "coherence" as the property of complex systems whereby their parts are integrated and coordinated into a unified whole. This integration and coordination is brought about by constraints, which operate across different scales and dimensions to weave together streams of energy, matter, and information flow.
It's a good definition, in my estimation. I have been concerned with the question of "coherence" and how relative coherence of two systems might be measured and compared, for a couple decades now, My specific interest is in application to comparing different models of (human) values, hierarchical and fine-grained. [I often refer to this in terms of "increasing coherence over increasing context"]
The best approach I have envisioned so far is in terms of maximizing flow through a network, and I'm inspired by her reference to weaving together streams of energy, matter, and information flow. I see some parallels to notions of trophic flow in ecological networks, and a certain "resonance" with Ulanowicz's thinking on "Ascendancy".
