Simulation of Complex Systems
About
The aim of the course is to teach students methods for modelling and computer simulation of complex systems, in particular systems where the behavior of many individuals is relevant. Methods for analyzing and presenting data from simulations are also included. Applications studied will include large-scale traffic simulations, simulations of economic markets, models of Internet use, industrial organization, and environmental applications.
