Below are some key questions that we might aim to explore.
Understanding the relationship between dynamics at different scales
- How can models of local and global systems mutually inform each other?
- How can systems be coupled without distorting their dynamics (and without recalibrating)?
- How can the dynamics of two models which both different trajectories of the same variable both be respected? Overlapping Systems Approaches
Endogenous Statistics
- What statistical tools can provide unbiased estimates of endogenously determined features?
- Can the interconnections within a system be inferred from data? System Regression
- How can a model usefully associate time-series data with system components (e.g., to improve dynamics or identify problems)?
New Complex System Definitions
- How can a scale-free model be simulated?
- How can we define a multi-level network, a multi-network system, and a multi-system component? New Language of Systems
Computational Tools
- How can a computational tool identify driving loops and leverage points, and communicate the results?
- How can one visualize the dynamics of a coupled and spatially heterogeneous system?
- How can stakeholder involvement and knowledge systems be built into system use and development?
Fisheries Questions
- How to build a framework that allows the plugging in of different species and policies?
- Can complex systems provide better predictions of populations, ecosystem services, tipping points, and needs under different regimes?
- How can fisher interests and global institutional influences be represented and modeled?
- How can managing of the commons be made easier, and made to grow naturally?
