This workshop is organized by Shade Shutters, Arizona State University and Carlos Molinero, CSH Faculty.   Abstract:   Urban systems are characterized by complex and cryptic structures of interdependent parts and sub‐ systems. Elucidating those parts and their connections is extremely difficult for systems such as urban economies. Often, researchers must rely on distributions of system parts to compare one complex system to another. Yet using distance metrics between distributions ignores the relative importance of the individual categories of a…

OEAW's FWF Wittgenstein-Prize Project “Moving Byzantium” and the Complexity Science Hub Vienna, Research Group "Social Complexity and Collapse", would like to invite to a public lecture on "'Resilience' or 'Fragility'? Reconsidering Climate and Historical Civilizations" by Prof. Ronnie ELLENBLUM, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem     The lecture will take place at the Österreichische Akademie der Wissenschaften, Hollandstraße 11-13/1, 1020 Vienna. After the talk we invite to a wine reception.   Abstract:   In his lecture, Ronnie Ellenblum will suggest…

The lecture by Mirsad Hadzikadic from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte will take place at the Complexity Science Hub Vienna. If you are interested in participating, please email to office@csh.ac.at. Abstract We live in a digital world today. Almost every aspect of our existence is recorded somewhere, on some computer. But, are these data on our behavior being used truly effectively? Ethically? Usefully? In this talk, we will cover a range of advanced technologies that are attempting to…

This workshop is organized by David Wolpert, Santa Fe Institute & CSH External Faculty and Jan Korbel, CSH Associate Faculty.   Abstract   Stochastic thermodynamics is an emerging extension of conventional equilibrium statistical physics designed for analyzing non-equilibrium thermodynamics of small systems, down to the level of individual trajectories. In stochastic thermodynamics, we typically consider a system undergoing a continuous-time Markov process while coupled to (one or more) infinite heat, particle, or work reservoirs. If there is a single infinite…
