Series series The Fairleigh Dickinson University Press Series in Communication Studies
Global communication can be difficult in the best of circumstances. The contributors in this book take seriously the premise that one can examine communication within specific global settings and scenes with the goal of ensuring that the meanings made among those within specific communities is more clearly understood. This includes recognizing that we often communicate based on specific ... Read more

Simulating Social Complexity

A Handbook

Edited by Bruce Edmonds, Ruth Meyer ...

Series series Computer Science (R0)
This volume examines all aspects of using agent or individual-based simulation. This approach represents systems as individual elements having their own set of differing states and internal processes. The interactions between elements in the simulation represent interactions in the target systems. What makes this "social" is that it can represent an observed society.Social systems include all ...

Simulating Social Complexity

A Handbook

Edited by Bruce Edmonds, Ruth Meyer ...

Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
Social systems are among the most complex known. This poses particular problems for those who wish to understand them. The complexity often makes analytic approaches infeasible and natural language approaches inadequate for relating intricate cause and effect. However, individual- and agent-based computational approaches hold out the possibility of new and deeper understanding of such systems ... Read more
