Trade is a fundamental pillar of economy and a form of social organization. Its empirical characterization at the worldwide scale is represented by the World Trade Web (WTW), the network built upon the trade relationships between the different countries. Several scientific studies have focused...

By means of a simple computational model, we explore a dynamic perspective of social cohesion in populations under stress. Dynamics are driven by the co-evolution of structural and cognitive dimensions. Submitted to sudden variations on its environmental conflict level, the model is able to...

We propose a stylized model of a problem-solving organization whose internal communication structure is given by a fixed network. Problems arrive randomly anywhere in this network and must find their way to their respective "specialized solvers" by relying on local information alone. The...
