    How Downtown Can Save America, One Step at a Time

    by Jeff Speck ...
    Jeff Speck has dedicated his career to determining what makes cities thrive. And he has boiled it down to one key factor: walkability.The very idea of a modern metropolis evokes visions of bustling sidewalks, vital mass transit, and a vibrant, pedestrian-friendly urban core. But in the typical American city, the car is still king, and downtown is a place that's easy to drive to but often not worth ... Read more

  • 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

  • Dynamic Systems for Everyone

    Understanding How Our World Works

    by Asish Ghosh ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book is a study of the interactions between different types of systems, their environment, and their subsystems. The author explains how basic systems principles are applied in engineered (mechanical, electromechanical, etc.) systems and then guides the reader to understand how the same principles can be applied to social, political, economic systems, as well as in everyday life. Readers from ... Read more

  • Simulating Knowledge Dynamics in Innovation Networks

    Edited by Andreas Pyka, Petra Ahrweiler, Nigel Gilbert ...
    Series series Business and Management (R0)
    The competitiveness of firms, regions and countries greatly depends on the generation, dissemination and application of new knowledge. Modern innovation research is challenged by the need to incorporate knowledge generation and dissemination processes into the analysis so as to disentangle the complexity of these dynamic processes. With innovation, however, strong uncertainty, nonlinearities and ... Read more

  • The Just City

    by Susan S. Fainstein ...
    "The just city is one in which equity, democracy, and diversity are important considerations. This is in contrast with the city as growth machine. Fainstein examines three cities: New York, London, and Amsterdam. She provides a history of post–World War II planning and then focuses on fairly recent cases of development in each. Her goals, though modest, are important if growing inequality in urban ... Read more
