Understanding Social Complex Systems with PlatBox Simulator
This paper presents a framework and tools for modeling and simulating societies as complex systems. Although the concept of the complex systems has been highly demanded in social sciences, there is no satisfactory scheme for modeling and simulating it. In this paper, we propose the model framework, which we call “PlatBox Foundation Model”, and tools, which we call “PlatBox Simulator” and “Compo...

متن کاملIdentifying Complex Dynamics in Social Systems
It is widely recognized that segregation processes are often the result of complex nonlinear dynamics. Empirical analyses of complex dynamics are however rare, because there is a lack of appropriate empirical modeling techniques that are capable of capturing complex patterns and nonlinearities. At the same time, we know that many social phenomena display nonlinearities. In this article, we intr...
متن کاملUnderstanding the Dynamics of Complex Lisp Programs
Recent advances in web technologies and the availability of robust Lisp libraries supporting them have made it possible to think of new ways of understanding and debugging large applications. In this paper, we will discuss two basic ideas for assessing and verifying the behaviour of Lisp programs. First, we propose to use a web browser for graphically displaying debug output in a similar but mo...
متن کاملDynamics of competing ideas in complex social systems
Abstract. Individuals accepting an idea may intentionally or unintentionally impose influences in a certain neighborhood area, making other individuals within the area less likely or even impossible to accept other competing ideas. Depending on whether such influences strictly prohibit neighborhood individuals from accepting other ideas or not, we classify them into exclusive and non-exclusive ...
