Christopher L. Barrett, Executive Director, Virginia Bioinformatics Institute/Professor of Computer Science, Virginia Tech. Dr. Barrett’s talk entitled “Massively Interactive Systems: Thinking and Deciding in the Age of Big Data"
Abstract: This talk discusses advanced computationally assisted reasoning about large interaction-dominated systems. Current questions in science, from the biochemical foundations of life to the scale of the world economy, involve details of huge numbers and levels of intricate interactions. Subtle indirect causal connections and vastly extended definitions of system boundaries dominate the immediate future of scientific research. Beyond sheer numbers of details and interactions, the systems are variously layered and structured in ways perhaps best described as networks. Interactions include, and often co-create, these morphological and dynamical features, which can interact in their own right. Such “massively interacting” systems are characterized by, among other things, large amounts of data and branching behaviors. Although the amount of associated data is large, the systems do not even begin to explore their entire phase spaces. Their study is characterized by advanced computational methods. Major methodological revisions seem to be indicated.
Heretofore unavailable and rapidly growing basic source data and increasingly powerful computing resources drive complex system science toward unprecedented detail and scale. There is no obvious reason for this direction in science to change. The cost of acquiring data has historically dominated scientific costs and shaped the research environment in terms of approaches and even questions. In the several years, as the costs of social data, biological data and physical data have plummeted on a per-unit basis and as the volume of data is growing exponentially, the cost drivers for scientific research have clearly shifted from data generation to storage and analytical computation-based methods. The research environment is rapidly being reshaped by this change and, in particular, the social and bio–sciences are revolutionized by it. Moreover, the study of socially– and biologically–coupled systems (e.g., societal infrastructures and infectious disease public health policy analysis) is in flux as computation-based methods begin to greatly expand the scope of traditional problems in revolutionary ways.
How does this situation serve to guide the development of “information portal technology” for complex system science and for decision support? An example of an approach to detailed computational analysis of social and behavioral interaction with physical and infrastructure effects in the immediate aftermath of a devastating disaster will be described in this context.

Mrs. Flores' 5th grade class tried their hand at Breakout. Mrs. Payleitner, Media Specialist at Frederick created three sets of locked boxes that contained clues, puzzles, and mysteries that had to be solved in order to unlock the main box that housed the treasure. Teams had to work together to decipher codes, find clues, and use logic to unlock each aspect of the game. Clues were based on the book Holes by Louis Sachar. Team Blue was the first to open all of the locks and claim their treasure - a Frederick Feather.

It was an awesome day for the kids.
Chief chef!!!
Cooking the favorite snack Pizza was awesome.
They also had a great time learning about phonic 'P' vocabulary and tracing phonic 'P'.
Opening the treasure words box was mind refreshing.
Star constellation was also very informative.
The kids acting like hairdressers and being customers during the
pretend play was so much fun.
Basic mathematics at this level strengthens their cognitive reasoning. Kids learnt how to count balls
and put in their respective boxes.
The lego legends used lego blocks to make out the shapes and finally reviewed phonic 'A'.
A great day of learning this week...

This truck was set up outside a pediatric dentist's office along one of Bentonville's main strip, and if I'd been more committed to my craft, I'd have gotten out of my car to get a picture of it from the other side. But my reasoning is that the sun was in the wrong direction to get a good picture from that side, and it was about 10°F (-12°C), and I didn't think it was worth getting out of my nice, warm car for a picture that was doomed to be backlit. I kind of regret that now, but only mildly. It's not worth going back to Arkansas for.
But this kind of reflects my treatment of Bentonville in general. We didn't do much exploring of the place, and it wasn't really the cold that slowed me down. Bentonville just didn't excite me, and I think it's that mental comparison I made early on with Owensboro, the small Kentucky city of my early years. Owensboro's kind of a dead place, and I think Bentonville sort of has the same thing. There's a big hole in the middle of it right now (that I didn't photograph) where Wal-Mart's building a giant campus, and that reminded me of the hole in the middle of Owensboro the massive Owensboro Mercy Health System (or whatever they're calling it now) left when they tore down the old hospital to build the much larger monster out on the edge of town. Same thing, different scale.
Bentonville IS Wal-Mart. It's a nice enough little place, somewhat atypical in the South for it's slightly more hoity-toity restaurants. (We went to a really good bagel shop before the museum, and the egg place we went to this morning had vegan options, which you'd think would be illegal in Arkansas.) The people are all friendly in that "we'll smile when we cut you, bless your little heart" sort of way that's common in the South. It felt comfortable, like the home of my childhood. I expect we'll go back sometime and take another tour of the museum, and that's fine.

Mrs. Flores' 5th grade class tried their hand at Breakout. Mrs. Payleitner, Media Specialist at Frederick created three sets of locked boxes that contained clues, puzzles, and mysteries that had to be solved in order to unlock the main box that housed the treasure. Teams had to work together to decipher codes, find clues, and use logic to unlock each aspect of the game. Clues were based on the book Holes by Louis Sachar. Team Blue was the first to open all of the locks and claim their treasure - a Frederick Feather.

Christopher L. Barrett, Executive Director, Virginia Bioinformatics Institute/Professor of Computer Science, Virginia Tech. Dr. Barrett’s talk entitled “Massively Interactive Systems: Thinking and Deciding in the Age of Big Data"
Abstract: This talk discusses advanced computationally assisted reasoning about large interaction-dominated systems. Current questions in science, from the biochemical foundations of life to the scale of the world economy, involve details of huge numbers and levels of intricate interactions. Subtle indirect causal connections and vastly extended definitions of system boundaries dominate the immediate future of scientific research. Beyond sheer numbers of details and interactions, the systems are variously layered and structured in ways perhaps best described as networks. Interactions include, and often co-create, these morphological and dynamical features, which can interact in their own right. Such “massively interacting” systems are characterized by, among other things, large amounts of data and branching behaviors. Although the amount of associated data is large, the systems do not even begin to explore their entire phase spaces. Their study is characterized by advanced computational methods. Major methodological revisions seem to be indicated.
Heretofore unavailable and rapidly growing basic source data and increasingly powerful computing resources drive complex system science toward unprecedented detail and scale. There is no obvious reason for this direction in science to change. The cost of acquiring data has historically dominated scientific costs and shaped the research environment in terms of approaches and even questions. In the several years, as the costs of social data, biological data and physical data have plummeted on a per-unit basis and as the volume of data is growing exponentially, the cost drivers for scientific research have clearly shifted from data generation to storage and analytical computation-based methods. The research environment is rapidly being reshaped by this change and, in particular, the social and bio–sciences are revolutionized by it. Moreover, the study of socially– and biologically–coupled systems (e.g., societal infrastructures and infectious disease public health policy analysis) is in flux as computation-based methods begin to greatly expand the scope of traditional problems in revolutionary ways.
How does this situation serve to guide the development of “information portal technology” for complex system science and for decision support? An example of an approach to detailed computational analysis of social and behavioral interaction with physical and infrastructure effects in the immediate aftermath of a devastating disaster will be described in this context.
