"Understanding of Complex Systems Through Visualization"

Abstract.

Visualizations can help users to "visually data mine" to find patterns in variables of complex interacting many-bodied systems. These insights can then be used to pin down the sources of the patterns, perhaps using other analysis methods. This talk will present current uses of interactive visualization for the presentation and understanding of complex systems. Agent-based models of social systems, logistical systems, and technological systems from commercial and governmental projects will be shown.  Strategies for coupling to agent-based models and methods for presenting flows on self-organizing networks will also be presented.
