Clarkson Center for Complex Systems Science (C3S2)
愿景 & 任务
愿景
C3S2将因其对复杂科学和系统科学发展的基础性贡献以及这些贡献对各种科学的影响而受到国际认可, engineering and business applications. C3S2将在大学内被认可为进行跨学科合作研究的典范.
任务
C3S2的使命是鼓励和促进综合体领域的研究和教育机会, 非线性, dynamical and adaptive systems. C3S2将促进跨学科研究小组的合作,以解决广泛科学领域的重要问题, 技术和工程学科的进步技术和人类.
Specific applications of complex systems science include:
- Complex and networked and multi-scaled processes
- Nonlinear and chaotic systems
- Information dynamics and causal inference
- Systems science
- Medicine and cognitive science
- Biology, systems biology and mathematical epidemiology
- Neuronal networks and the brain, extreme events and earthquakes, as well as cardiac arrhythmia, and more fundamentally, 非线性 化学 reaction kinetics
- Mechanical, 化学, electrical and civil engineering
- Fluid dynamics and turbulent systems, oceanography and meteorology, including questions of transport, modeling and sensing
- Physics and astronomy
- Economics and social sciences
- Dynamical systems and control systems
- Sensor networks, ad hoc networks and control coordination systems
- Decision science, social systems and science of human groups
- Adaptive and designed systems engineering
- Particular examples are protein interaction networks, niche development in microbial communities, disease and rumor spreading and dynamics of innovations
- Critical and rare events, mechanisms and detection, robustness and fragility
Center Motivation and Benefits to Clarkson
Clarkson@125战略计划的三大支柱之一是“提高研究和学术的重要性”.“研究中心在促进合作和赞助研究的增长方面发挥着关键作用. 事实上, esball国际平台客户端赞助的大部分研究可以归功于现有的研究中心,包括CAMP和CITeR, 和CfM.
Dr. Erik Bollt, the inaugural C3S2 center director, 在复杂系统科学领域已建立国际声誉. Dr. 博尔特在这一领域的合作主要是与其他机构的同事合作. These include Princeton University, Stanford University, Oxford University, Imperial College, Bristol University, Oregon State U, 佐治亚理工学院, Virginia Tech, Army Redstone Arsenal, Naval 研究 Laboratory and Los Alamos National Labs, to name several. 有机会向内扩展这种合作,包括esball国际平台客户端各个学术部门的同事. 这样做将为esball国际平台客户端提供一个在该领域产生更大影响的机会, thus enhancing our research reputation. A strength at Clarkson is that our culture, 我们的规模和以应用为导向的理念都表明,跨领域的合作是我们所做的,也是我们擅长的. This center is specifically advanced in this spirit. 我们将提供一个场所和一种手段,将我们分组和组合在一起,促进在前沿研究方面的合作,否则可能不会发生, or even occur to specialists in individual disciplines. Together, our work can emerge strengthened as a group. 理论为应用提供支持,应用为理论提供支持,我们共同受益.
