Modeling Complex Phenomena: Proceedings of the Third Woodward Conference, San Jose State University, April 12-13, 1991 - Hardcover
Synopsis
The Third Woodward Conference served as a forum for experts in numerous disciplines to discuss problems in modelling complex phenomena in both social and natural sciences. This volume contains both review articles and reports of recent research. Two recurrent themes are chaos and self-organized criticality. Among the topics covered in the volume are: general problems in the modelling of complex systems, such as machine learning of natural languages; nonlinear forecasting, with relevance, for example, to the arms race; chaotic dynamics and economics; modelling of complex phenomena in fluids; earthquake modelling and self-organized criticality; and mathematical models of complex patterns.
