This mini-workshop will look at interactions as elements that shape space in societies. Invited talks by Barbara Mills (Univ. Arizona) and Oliver Nakoinz (Univ. Kiel) will offer two perspectives on the modeling of relational systems in archeological contexts. Indeed, modeling interactions and the links they form across space may bring new insights into past large-scale […]
Education is going through major changes, thanks to the inputs of open science and cognitive science. This seminar aims at articulating and describing such changes by providing attendees with a combined understanding of open science and cognitive science. Cognitive science will be described through its philosophy, history and methods, with bits of clinics, endocrinology and […]
SELECTION, SORTING AND SOCIAL DISTANCE: THE LEGACY AN CONTINUING RELEVANCE OF THOMAS SCHELLING. William A. V. Clark Although Thomas Schelling was awarded the Nobel prize for “having enhanced our understanding of conflict and cooperation though game theory analysis”, for most social scientists his legacy is his work on the “tipping point” and how […]

A l'aide d'algorithmes, de données de masses (Big Data) et de l'Intelligence Artificielle, les chercheurs de l'Institut des Systèmes Complexes essaient de comprendre le fonctionnement de systèmes très complexes, tels que les virus, le climat, ou encore les réseaux sociaux. La science des systèmes complexes est une approche nouvelle et encore méconnue, et pourtant, ses […]
