Tribute to Prof. Micheline Cosinschi : Cartography and geosimulation
Complexity, Networks, Geosimulations - June 11, 2010 09:30 - 1 hour - VideoProf. Denise PUMAIN, Prof. Stephane JOOST, Dr Christian KAISER, Prof. Jean-Paul FERRIER, Prof. Jean-Bernard RACINE, Prof. Micheline COSINSCHI
Innovation and Sustainability
Complexity, Networks, Geosimulations - June 11, 2010 08:30 - 55 minutes - VideoProf. David LANE, University of Modena & Reggio Emilia, Italy. For a long time, the idea of novelty was generally regarded with great suspicion; in the last few centuries, it is increasingly viewed in a favourable light, so much so that it seems appropriate to characterize the developed and devel...
Simulating the dynamics of systems of cities, the Simpop models
Complexity, Networks, Geosimulations - June 11, 2010 07:30 - 52 minutes - VideoProf. Lena SANDERS, CNRS, Paris, France. Cities evolve at different rhythms, some growing, other stagnating or even declining. The hypothesis is that these differences are the result of different abilities to valorise a position in a system of cities. The interactions between cities play then a d...
The complexity of structure, strategy and decision making
Complexity, Networks, Geosimulations - June 11, 2010 06:30 - 49 minutes - VideoProf. Peter ALLEN, Cranfield University, United Kingdom. Many spatial models are really ‘fitted descriptions’ of spatial changes that have occurred. In order to have a deeper and possibly more long term understanding of what is going on, or may happen, it is necessary to represent the behaviours,...
Trust, Recommender Systems and Coalitions in Social Networks
Complexity, Networks, Geosimulations - June 10, 2010 14:30 - 1 hour - VideoProf. Stefano BATTISTON, System Design, ETH Zurich, Switzerland. We propose a novel trust metric for social networks which is suitable for application to recommender systems. It is personalised and dynamic, and allows to compute the indirect trust between two agents which are not neighbours based...
Economic inequalities spatial patterns in a sustainable world, a complex systems approach
Complexity, Networks, Geosimulations - June 10, 2010 13:00 - 48 minutes - VideoProf. Gerard WEISBUCH, Ecole Normale Supérieure Paris, France. We discuss the possible World patterns of economic activity after the transition to a sustainable and stationary economy. Our main concern is the economy of energy, most probably the limiting factor of economic development. Should we ...
Geo-simulations of urban phenomena
Complexity, Networks, Geosimulations - June 10, 2010 12:00 - 1 hour - VideoProf. Itzhak BENENSON, Geography, University of Tel-Aviv, Israel. Geosimulation treats the city as a creature, the complexity of which is above the complexity of physical and chemical systems, but below the complexity of a human self. It thus assumes that there is no need to directly account for ...
Networks structures, main principles (eg scale-free, small-worlds)
Complexity, Networks, Geosimulations - June 10, 2010 09:30 - 1 hour - VideoProf. Marco TOMASSINI, ISI, University of Lausanne, Switzerland. Game theory offers a simplified but powerful metaphor of social behavior and decision processes under conflicting situations. We shall introduce some of these paradigms in the language of game theory and show that often they lead to...
Computational physics for the study of complex networks
Complexity, Networks, Geosimulations - June 10, 2010 08:10 - 55 minutes - VideoProf. Roger GUIMERA & Prof. Marta SALES, Biochimics, Universitat Rovira i Virgili, Tarragona, Spain. Cells, the brain, ecosystems and economies are complex systems. In complex systems, individual components interact with each other, usually in nonlinear ways, giving rise to complex networks of i...
Multidimensional and multi-level network theory
Complexity, Networks, Geosimulations - June 10, 2010 07:15 - 1 hour - VideoProf. Noshir CONTRACTOR, Northwestern University, SONIC, USA. Recent advances in Web Science provide comprehensive digital traces of social actions, interactions, and transactions. These data provide an unprecedented exploratorium to model the socio-technical motivations for creating, maintaining...
Open Speech "Spatial Simulations for Social Sciences"
Complexity, Networks, Geosimulations - June 10, 2010 07:00 - 10 minutes - VideoCéline ROZENBLAT, Institut de géographie, UNIL
