Download or read book Agent Based Computational Demography written by Francesco C. Billari and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agent-Based Computational Demography (ABCD) aims at starting a new stream of research among social scientists whose interests lie in understanding demographic behaviour. The book takes a micro-demographic (agent-based) perspective and illustrates the potentialities of computer simulation as an aid in theory building. The chapters of the book, written by leading experts either in demography or in agent-based modelling, address several key questions. Why do we need agent-based computational demography? How can ABCD be applied to the study of migrations, family demography, and historical demography? What are the peculiarities of agent-based models as applied to the demography of human populations? ABCD is of interest to all scientists interested in studying demographic behaviour, as well as to computer scientists and modellers who are looking for a promising field of application.
Download or read book Environmental Health and Traditional Fuel Use in Guatemala written by Kulsum Ahmed and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a growing recognition of the harmful effects of indoor air pollution on health, with recent WHO estimates indicating that indoor smoke from solid fuels causes 1.6 million deaths annually and accounts for 2.7 percent of the global burden of disease. This publication examines the adverse health impacts of indoor air pollution, particularly on children, from fuel use in Guatemala, where the vast majority of poor, rural households use fuelwood as the dominant cooking fuel. It draws on case studies of improved stove programmes to highlight the problem and to explore technical mitigation measures and policy options to improve accessibility to cleaner fuels.

Download or read book Research Ethics in Complex Humanitarian Emergencies written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2002-08-13 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Situations involving conflict and forced migration have become increasingly commonplace in today's world. The need to understand the causes, consequences, and characteristics of these situations is creating a burgeoning field of research. But given the nature of complex emergency settings, traditional research guidelines may be inappropriate. The research and policy community has recognized this problem and has begun to address issues surrounding the ethics of doing research in emergency settings and among conflict-affected and displaced populations. The Roundtable on the Demography of Forced Migration, under the aegis of the Committee on Population of the National Research Council, held a workshop to examine some of these issues. This report to the roundtable summarizes the workshop presentations and discussion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the United States and the rest of the world face the unprecedented challenge of aging populations, this volume draws together for the first time state-of-the-art work from the emerging field of the demography of aging. The nine chapters, written by experts from a variety of disciplines, highlight data sources and research approaches, results, and proposed strategies on a topic with major policy implications for labor forces, economic well-being, health care, and the need for social and family supports.

Download or read book Mathematical Modeling Simulations and AI for Emergent Pandemic Diseases written by Esteban A. Hernandez-Vargas and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2023-03-21 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mathematical Modeling, Simulations, and Artificial Intelligence for Emergent Pandemic Diseases: Lessons Learned from COVID-19 includes new research, models and simulations developed during the COVID-19 pandemic into how mathematical methods and practice can impact future response. Chapters go beyond forecasting COVID-19, bringing different scale angles and mathematical techniques (e.g., ordinary differential and difference equations, agent-based models, artificial intelligence, and complex networks) which could have potential use in modeling other emergent pandemic diseases. A major part of the book focuses on preparing the scientific community for the next pandemic, particularly the application of mathematical modeling in ecology, economics and epidemiology. Readers will benefit from learning how to apply advanced mathematical modeling to a variety of topics of practical interest, including optimal allocations of masks and vaccines but also more theoretical problems such as the evolution of viral variants. Provides a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art in mathematical modeling and computational simulations for emerging pandemics Presents modeling techniques that go beyond COVID-19, and that can be applied to tailoring interventions to attenuate high death tolls Includes illustrations, tables and dialog boxes to explain highly specialized concepts and insights with complex algorithms, along with links to programming code
