  • Book of Extremes

    Why the 21st Century Isn’t Like the 20th Century

    by Ted G. Lewis ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    What makes the 21st century different from the 20th century? This century is the century of extremes -- political, economic, social, and global black-swan events happening with increasing frequency and severity. Book of Extremes is a tour of the current reality as seen through the lens of complexity theory – the only theory capable of explaining why the Arab Spring happened and why it will happen ...

  • Simulation-Based Algorithms for Markov Decision Processes

    by Hyeong Soo Chang, Jiaqiao Hu, Michael C. Fu, Steven I. Marcus ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    Markov decision process (MDP) models are widely used for modeling sequential decision-making problems that arise in engineering, economics, computer science, and the social sciences. Many real-world problems modeled by MDPs have huge state and/or action spaces, giving an opening to the curse of dimensionality and so making practical solution of the resulting models intractable. In other cases, the ... Read more

  • Random Walks and Diffusions on Graphs and Databases

    An Introduction

    by Dimitri Volchenkov, Philipp Blanchard ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Most networks and databases that humans have to deal with contain large, albeit finite number of units. Their structure, for maintaining functional consistency of the components, is essentially not random and calls for a precise quantitative description of relations between nodes (or data units) and all network components. This book is an introduction, for both graduate students and newcomers to ... Read more

  • Conflict and Complexity

    Countering Terrorism, Insurgency, Ethnic and Regional Violence

    Edited by Yaneer Bar-Yam, Ali A. Minai, Philip Vos Fellman ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book follows the methodologies of complex adaptive systems research in their application to addressing the problems of terrorism, specifically terrorist networks, their structure and various methods of mapping and interdicting them as well as exploring the complex landscape of network-centric and irregular warfare. A variety of new models and approaches are presented here, including Dynamic ... Read more

  • The Innovation Butterfly

    Managing Emergent Opportunities and Risks During Distributed Innovation

    by Edward G. Anderson Jr., Nitin R. Joglekar ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Product and service innovations are the result of mutually interacting creative and coordination tasks within a system that has to balance technical decisions, marketplace taste, personnel management, and stakeholder commitment. The constituent elements of such systems are often scattered across multiple firms and across the globe and constitute a complex system consisting of many interacting ... Read more

  • Maximum-Entropy Networks

    Pattern Detection, Network Reconstruction and Graph Combinatorics

    by Tiziano Squartini, Diego Garlaschelli ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book is an introduction to maximum-entropy models of random graphs with given topological properties and their applications. Its original contribution is the reformulation of many seemingly different problems in the study of both real networks and graph theory within the unified framework of maximum entropy. Particular emphasis is put on the detection of structural patterns in real networks, ... Read more
