Special issue preface: complex systems in neurobiology.
The last couple of decades have seen a phenomenal level of interest and growth in the study of the human brain. While developments in neuroimaging have provided important insight into macroscopic function of neural ensembles, sophisticated recording techniques at the single neuron level have enabled significant progress at the cellular and molecular levels. However, in the absence of unifying t...
متن کاملPreface to the Special Issue
Large-scale assessments, such as Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) and Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), provide big data in the educational context. A researcher who wants to conduct a secondary analysis using this big data has to notice that analyses of this type of data require considering some technical complexities. Among these complexities ...
متن کاملPreface to Special Issue on Mathematics of Social Systems
This special issue is an outgrowth of a minisyposium titled “Mathematics of Social Systems” held at the 9th AIMS Conference on Dynamical Systems, Di↵erential Equations and Applications, held in Orlando, FL in July 2012. Presenters from that session were invited to submit papers that were reviewed using the usual procedures of the DCDS journals, along with additional authors from the field. Math...
متن کاملPreface to special issue on cooperation in selfish systems
The problem of understanding the conditions under which cooperation or altruism can be sustained between interacting selfish entities is a fundamental issue in both biology and the social sciences. In recent years, there has been an explosion of work utilising agent-based computer simulation to explore novel mechanisms for cooperation. This surge was probably kick-started by the famous “compute...
متن کاملPreface: Introduction to Special Issue
Demands for flexibility, greater variety of products, and advanced production processes complicate the logistics and planning of manufacturing systems; this also increases the number of alternatives that should be formalized in a model. The evaluation of all the possible alternatives of the planning problem is often considered an NP-hard combinatorial problem. Practical problems often contain n...
