Syllabus
The focus of this research topic is on models already well-known in statistical physics and in interdisciplinary sciences with which it is easier to understand the background of processes behind information systems. We emphasize the investigation of possible uses of agent-based models in network science, in communication of smart-devices and in studying social networks.
