Description
Want to build better cities? Or, would you like to solve the world’s traffic snares? It’s possible to conceive of the solution to any difficult problem, providing you know how to frame the questions using mathematics. Claudio Cioffi-Revilla (George Mason University) is a professor of computational sciences and director of Center for Social Complexity. He says an emerging field called computational social science can help policy makers determine the best way to allocate resources or to better understand how nations engage in war.
