[edit] The complexity wiki

An open community collaborative post-and-editing wiki on trans-disciplinary and especially networks and complexity sciences research that enriches each of the standard disciplines. Intended primarily for researchers, students, faculty and others engaged through individual and collaborative postings, courses, methods, shared and documented open-source software, tutorials, and tools for research and enhancing interdisciplinary advancement in the full range of overlapping human sciences, humanities, and natural and computer science, with interests in the complexity sciences, their teaching, and applications. If in addition to browsing you click the "edit" tab to participate we ask you to login your real name, which lets you edit and create new pages and to modify others. The Firefox browser has automatic spell-check (OS X:control-Click) as you type into the "edit" text window. Current events lists our live and Streaming UC complexity Videoconferences and a speakers index for earlier talks, 2005-2008, listed along with those of other complexity centers. After login, to add legitimate external URLs, you need to type one of the POPUP words that keep the robots from inserting ads.

[edit] Application deadlines

Networks and Network Analysis for the Humanities - Deadline August 2010 CFA: NEH Institute for Advanced Topics in Digital Humanities @ UCLA

Call For Applications: Institute For Pure And Applied Mathematics (IPAM) & The Center For Digital Humanities at UCLA

Except for John Mohr, UCI PhD and Sociology faculty, UCSD, almost all the speaker are from mathematics and computer sciences, sidelining the social sciences.

The message is: the Humanities have arrived at Network Analysis.

Newsworthy events 2008

"A scientist, as a citizen of the world, has a responsibility for more than just science" Doug White 10:03, 20 January 2009 (PST) Inauguration day

President Barack Obama sets up a volunteer service org on MLK day for the inauguration and next four years
Distilling Free-Form Natural Laws from Experimental Data Michael Schmidt and Hod Lipson April 2009 in Science 324. "The key insight into identifying nontrivial conservation laws computationally is that the candidate equations should predict connections between dynamics of subcomponents of the system. More precisely, the conservation equation should be able to predict connections among derivatives of groups of variables over time, relations that we can also readily calculate from new experimental data.)

And others... Note to all: an Edit tab will appear over every wiki page ONCE YOU LOGIN (with your actual name, please!)

[edit] QuickStart (click here!) for Wiki editing

Help:Navigation (see Help Tells how to log in, create your bio, describe your research, design pages for your discussion groups and courses, comment and post, etc. Use discretion: what you write on the wiki is public and explicitly GFDL licensed for redistribution with citation. Write publicly with forethought. Redistribution of indiscretion will happen when you don't want it. You can also write iteratively, in steps, and revise indefinitely, but drafts are saved in the history tab and are thus accessible. Wikipedia:Wikipedia:How to edit a page
