Softcover. Zustand: As New. "The rapidly progressing digital revolution is now touching the foundations of the governance of societal structures. Humans are on the verge of evolving from consumers to prosumers, and old, entrenched theories - in particular sociological and economic ones - are falling prey to these rapid developments. The original assumptions on which they are based are being questioned. Each year we produce as much data as in the entire human history - can we possibly create a global crystal ball to predict our future and to optimally govern our world? Do we need wide-scale surveillance to understand nd manage the increasingly complex systems we are constructing, or would bottom-up approaches such as self-regulating systems be a better solution to creating a more innovative, more successful, more resilient, and ultimately happier society? Working at the interface of complexity theory, quantitative sociology and Big Data-driven risk and knowledge management, the author advocates the establishment of new participatory systems in our digital society to enhance coordination, reduce conflict and, above all, reduce the "tragedies of the commons," resulting from the methods now used in political, economic and management decision-making."--Back cover.

Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Inglés. The rapidly progressing digital revolution is now touching the foundations of the governance of societal structures. Humans are on the verge of evolving from consumers to prosumers and old, entrenched theories ? in particular sociological and economic ones ? are falling prey to these rapid developments and the original assumptions on which they are based are being questioned. Each year we produce as much data as in the entire human history - can we possibly create a global crystal ball to predict our future and to optimally govern our world? Do we need wide-scale surveillance to understand and manage the increasingly complex systems we are constructing, or would bottom-up approaches such as self-regulating systems be a better solution to creating a more innovative, more successful, more resilient and ultimately happier society? Working at the interface of complexity theory, quantitative sociology and big-data-driven risk and knowledge management, the author advocates the establishment of new participatory systems in our digital society to enhance coordination, reduce conflict and, above all, reduce the ?tragedies of the commons,? resulting from the methods now used in political, economic and management decision-making. Dirk Helbing is Professor of Sociology, specializing in modeling and simulation, at the Department of Humanities, Social and Political Sciences. He is a member of the Computer Science Department at ETH Zurich as well as co-founder of ETH Zurich?s Risk Center. He is internationally known for the scientific coordination of the FuturICT Initiative ( which focuses on using smart data to understand techno-socioeconomic systems. Helbing is an elected member of the German Academy of Sciences ?Leopoldina? and worked in the World Economic Forum?s Global Agenda Council on Complex Systems. He is also a board member of the Global Brain Institute in Brussels and of the International Centre for Earth Simulation (ICES) in Geneva. ?Prof. Helbing has produced an insightful and important set of essays on the ways in which big data and complexity science are changing our understanding of ourselves and our society, and potentially allowing us to manage our societies much better than we are currently able to do. Of special note are the essays that touch on the promises of big data along with the dangers. . . this is material that we should all become familiar with!? Alex Pentland, MIT, author of Social Physics: How Good Ideas Spread - The Lessons From a New Science "Dirk Helbing has established his reputation as one of the leading scientific thinkers on the dramatic impacts of the digital revolution on our society and economy. Thinking Ahead is a most stimulating and provocative set of essays which deserves a wide audience. ? Paul Ormerod, economist, and author of Butterfly Economics and Why Most Things Fail. "It is becoming increasingly clear that many of our institutions and social structures are in a bad way and urgently need fixing. Financial crises, international conflicts, civil wars and terrorism, inaction on climate change, problems of poverty, widening economic inequality, health epidemics, pollution and threats to digital privacy and identity are just some of the major challenges that we confront in the twenty-first century. These issues demand new and bold thinking, and that is what Dirk Helbing offers in this collection of essays. If even a fraction of these ideas pay off, the consequences for global governance could be significant. So this is a must-read book for anyone concerned about the future. " Philip Ball, science writer and author of Critical Mass . ?This collection of papers, brought together by Dirk Helbing, is both timely and topical. It raises concerns about Big Data, which are truly frightening and disconcerting, that we do need to be aware of; while at the same time offering some hope that the technology, which has created the previously unthought-of dangers to our privacy, safety and democracy can be the means to address these dangers by enabling social, economic and political participation and coordination, not possible in the past. It makes for compelling reading and I hope for timely action. ?

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This new collection of essays follows in the footsteps of the successful volume Thinking Ahead - Essays on Big Data, Digital Revolution, and Participatory Market Society, published at a time when our societies were on a path to technological totalitarianism, as exemplified by mass surveillance reported by Edward Snowden and others. Meanwhile the threats have diversified and tech companies have gathered enough data to create detailed profiles about almost everyone living in the modern world - profiles that can predict our behavior better than our friends, families, or even partners. This is not only used to manipulate peoples' opinions and voting behaviors, but more generally to influence consumer behavior at all levels. It is becoming increasingly clear that we are rapidly heading towards a cybernetic society, in which algorithms and social bots aim to control both the societal dynamics and individual behaviors.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -'Digital transformation' sounds harmless, given that the explosion in data volumes, processing power and Artificial Intelligence has driven humanity and the entire world to a point of no return. We will surely see a new civilization, but we are at a crossroads. The future needs to be re-invented, decisions must be taken.After the automation of factories and the creation of self-driving cars, the automation of society is on its way. But there are two kinds of automation: a centralized top-down control of the world and a distributed control approach, supporting local self-organization. Using the power of today¿s information systems, governments and big tech companies seem to engage in the first approach. Might they even build a ¿digital Crystal Ball¿ that knows almost everything, including your personality, and a super-intelligent 'digital God¿ to control what we do We are much closer to such ¿science fiction scenarios¿ than you probably think.In this much expanded second edition of 'The Automation of Society is Next: How to Survive the Digital Revolution' (2015), the author discusses lessons learned on digital democracy, aspects of transhumanism and far-reaching thoughts about life in the digital age and what it may mean to be human in the future.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 352 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This Open Access book outlines ideas for a novel, scalable and, above all, sustainable financial system.We all know that today's global markets are unsustainable and global governance is not effective enough. Given this situation, could one boost smart human coordination, sustainability and resilience by tweaking society at its core: the monetary system A Computational Social Science team at ETH Zürich has indeed worked on a concept and little demonstrator for a new financial system, called 'Finance 4.0' or just 'FIN4', which combines blockchain technology with the Internet of Things ('IoT'). What if communities could reward sustainable actions by issuing their own money ('tokens') Would people behave differently, when various externalities became visible and were actionable through cryptographic tokens Could a novel, participatory, multi-dimensional financial system be created Could it be run by the people for the people and lead to more societal resilience than today's financial system (which is effectively one-dimensional due to its almost frictionless exchange) How could one manage such a system in an ethical and democratic way This book presents some early attempts in a nascent field, but provides a fresh view on what cryptoeconomic systems could do for us, for a circular economy, and for scalable, sustainable action.

Zustand: Gut. 190 Seiten; Illustr.; 23 cm; kart. Sehr gutes Exemplar. - Daten gelten als das Gold des 21. Jahrhunderts. Und weil wir immer mehr davon generieren, wächst die Euphorie. Wir glauben, dass uns Algorithmen immer mehr schwierige Entscheidungen abnehmen und dabei helfen werden, unsere Umwelt besser zu verstehen oder gar die Zukunft vorherzusagen. Softwareunternehmen träumen von intelligenten Städten, die die Wünsche ihrer Bewohner kennen, Forscher arbeiten an einem Weltsimulator, der Wirtschaftskrisen oder gar Kriege verhindern soll. "Big Data" ist das Schlagwort, das stellvertretend für die Hoffnung steht, dass mehr Daten mehr Wissen, Transparenz und Wohlstand bringen. Allerdings ist bei derart hohen Erwartungen immer auch kritisches Denken gefragt. So sprechen verschiedene Anzeichen dafür, dass die wachsenden Datenmengen nicht für mehr Transparenz sorgen werden, sondern letztlich ein grosses Rauschen bleiben. ABSTRAKT N° 12 macht sich auf die Suche nach den Folgen der Datengesellschaft. Es zeigt, warum die bleibende Intransparenz auch ihr Gutes hat und wir im neuen Zeitalter nicht nur bessere Algorithmen, sondern vor allem mehr Menschenverstand brauchen - unter anderem mit Beiträgen von ETH-Professor Dirk Helbing, dem New Yorker Urbanisten Adam Greenfield, dem britischen Kriminologen Spencer Chainey, dem Informationsarchitekten Oliver Reichenstein oder Roger de Weck, Generaldirektor von Schweizer Radio und Fernsehen.

Zustand: Gut. Zustand: Gut | Seiten: 516 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | In recent years flows in networks have attracted the interest of many researchers from different areas, e.g. applied mathematicians, engineers, physicists, economists. The main reason for this ubiquity is the wide and diverse range of applications, such as vehicular traffic, supply chains, blood flow, irrigation channels, data networks and others.This book presents an extensive set of notes by world leaders on the main mathematical techniques used to address such problems, together with investigations into specific applications. The main focus is on partial differential equations in networks, but ordinary differential equations and optimal transport are also included. Moreover, the modeling is completed by analysis, numerics, control and optimization of flows in networks. The book will be a valuable resource for every researcher or student interested in the subject.
