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

Scientific simulations — an advanced type of computational model that not only represents a real-world phenomenon, but aims to predict how the phenomenon might change under different conditions or parameters. Software — a set of instructions, scripts or programmes that are used to operate computers and perform specific tasks.
