1. Modelling and Simulation Tarik Booker

2. What is it (in relation to Computer Science)? Modelling and Simulation refer to the computerized modelling and simulation of numerical systems Non-Linear Dynamical Systems Fractal Theory Fuzzy Logic (Neural Networks)

3. Dynamical Systems Attempt to understand processes in motion –Ex: Motion of Stars and Galaxies Differential Equations Iterative Systems

4. Fractal Theory Technically no connection between dynamical systems and fractal geometry, but most chaotic regions for dynamical regions are fractals

5. Fuzzy Logic The Fuzzy Inference System –Rule Base –Data base (dictionary) –Reasoning Mechanism Fuzzy Set Theory Fuzzy Inference Rules
