It is an incredibly useful field with a wide range of applications from biological and social sciences to computer animation and finance. Applied mathematics is essential to solving real world problems in many areas, and Anotida’s work goes far beyond his own research in theoretical and computational biology.

Dr Min Xu, a statistician specialising in network analysis at Rutgers University, has developed a probabilistic model that can determine how a network has grown, which not only has applications in epidemiology, but is also useful in social science, genetics and counter-terrorism efforts. What is a network? “A

And so it was that in 1985 I began to promote the idea of a new field of “complex systems research”, or, for short “complexity”—fueled by the discoveries I’d made about things like cellular automata. And while they used computers as practical tools, they never made the jump to seeing computation as a core paradigm for thinking about science.

In the mid-1990s, researching history for my book A New Kind of Science , (as I’ll discuss below) I had a detailed email exchange and long phone conversation with Ed about this. I’m seated at this meeting, and there’s a Russian friend of mine [head of the Soviet Space Research Institute] next to me. I made all my points.

Later he describes what he calls the “Principle of the Communication of Heat”. He starts off by saying about Carnot’s book: The idea which serves as a basis of his researches seems to me to be both fertile and beyond question; his demonstrations are founded on the absurdity of the possibility of creating motive power or heat out of nothing.
