Behavioral Rationality And Heterogeneous Expectations In Complex Economic Systems

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

Recognising that the economy is a complex system with boundedly rational interacting agents, the book presents a theory of behavioral rationality and heterogeneous expectations in complex economic systems and confronts the nonlinear dynamic models with empirical stylized facts and laboratory experiments. The complexity modeling paradigm has been strongly advocated since the late 1980s by some economists and by multidisciplinary scientists from various fields, such as physics, computer science and biology. More recently the complexity view has also drawn the attention of policy makers, who are faced with complex phenomena, irregular fluctuations and sudden, unpredictable market transitions. The complexity tools - bifurcations, chaos, multiple equilibria - discussed in this book will help students, researchers and policy makers to build more realistic behavioral models with heterogeneous expectations to describe financial market movements and macro-economic fluctuations, in order to better manage crises in a complex global economy.

Communist Planning Versus Rationality

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

This volume examines concepts of central planning, a cornerstone of political economy in Soviet-type societies. It revolves around the theory of “optimal planning” which promised a profound modernization of Stalinist-style verbal planning. Encouraged by cybernetic dreams in the 1950s and supporting the strategic goals of communist leaders in the Cold War, optimal planners offered the ruling elites a panacea for the recurrent crises of the planned economy. Simultaneously, their planning projects conveyed the pride of rational management and scientific superiority over the West. The authors trace the rise and fall of the research program in the communist era in eight countries of Eastern Europe, including the Soviet Union, and China, describing why the mission of optimization was doomed to fail and why the failure was nevertheless very slow. The theorists of optimal planning contributed to the rehabilitation of mathematical culture in economic research in the communist countries, and thus, to a neoclassical turn in economics all over the ex-communist world). However, because they have not rejected optimal planning as “computopia,” there is a large space left behind for future generations to experiment with Big Optimal Plans anew—based, at this time, on artificial intelligence and machine learning.

Modeling And Control In Environmental Issues 2001

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

Environmental issues is one of the significantly important subjects to be solved on a global scale for attaining sustainable developments in the new century. A major feature of environmental issues is that studies on environments are interdisciplinary and should deal with complex and heterogeneous systems, which include chemical, physical and biological phenomena and further socio-economical activities and technology developments for energy saving and CO 2 emission reduction. The workshop provided the forum for presentation of new developments in the important interdisciplinary field of environmental systems involving the application of concepts, methods and techniques of modeling and control. The aim was to review state-of-the-art systems and control approaches, exchange new results in interdisciplinary fields and look at feasible developments to the future. The scope of this workshop covered various aspects of systems and control approaches to environmental issues: Environmental assessment; Systems approaches to environmental management and strategies; Modeling of global warming and impact analysis on socio-structure; Modeling of ecological systems; Control and optimization of environmental quantities; System reform and integration for environments; Advanced control technology for reduction of energy consumption and CO 2 emission; Cogeneration systems; Control systems approaches to clean energy; Fuel cells and their applications; Systems Integration technologies in urban planning; Systems modeling and data analysis in life cycle assessment; Manufacturing in symbiosis with environments; Modeling and control of waste incineration plant; Water quality control and waste water management; Other related topics.

Agricultural Cybernetics

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

Agricultural systems are uniquely complex systems, given that agricultural systems are parts of natural and ecological systems. Those aspects bring in a substantial degree of uncertainty in system operation. Also, impact factors, such as weather factors, are critical in agricultural systems but these factors are uncontrollable in system management. Modern agriculture has been evolving through precision agriculture beginning in the late 1980s and biotechnological innovations in the early 2000s. Precision agriculture implements site-specific crop production management by integrating agricultural mechanization and information technology in geographic information system (GIS), global navigation satellite system (GNSS), and remote sensing. Now, precision agriculture is set to evolve into smart agriculture with advanced systematization, informatization, intelligence and automation. From precision agriculture to smart agriculture, there is a substantial amount of specific control and communication problems that have been investigated and will continue to be studied. In this book, the core ideas and methods from control problems in agricultural production systems are extracted, and a system view of agricultural production is formulated for the analysis and design of management strategies to control and optimize agricultural production systems while exploiting the intrinsic feedback information-exchanging mechanisms. On this basis, the theoretical framework of agricultural cybernetics is established to predict and control the behavior of agricultural production systems through control theory.
