Modeling self-sustained activity cascades in socio-technical networks

Agent Based Modeling of large-scale socio-technical metal networks

Metals production and consumption networks are complex Large Scale Socio-Technical Systems, consisting of many technical installations, companies operating them, at a global scale, with large environmental impacts. Understanding their dynamics and behavior requires models that are capable of capturing technical, social, economic and other dimensions. Modeling in the metals domain has traditiona...

Context Engineering and Modeling Challenges

The authors previously proposed the Context Engineering (CE) approach to Information Systems Development (ISD) as a framework to organise ideas about previous development experience and to guide future research on specific ISD methods and techniques. The goals of the CE approach are: to achieve an understanding of the ISD as socio-technical phenomena within a cultural and historical envelope; t...

Sustained Activity in Hierarchical Modular Neural Networks: Self-Organized Criticality and Oscillations

Cerebral cortical brain networks possess a number of conspicuous features of structure and dynamics. First, these networks have an intricate, non-random organization. In particular, they are structured in a hierarchical modular fashion, from large-scale regions of the whole brain, via cortical areas and area subcompartments organized as structural and functional maps to cortical columns, and fi...

Modeling, Designing and Evaluating A Social Network in the Field of Health

Background and Aim: Social networks that provide users with health data not only educate them but also play an active role in the health decision-making process. Health social networks, in addition to being a good tool for better patient communication with health care providers, can play an effective role in connecting similar patients with each other to receive social support. Social networkin...
