for mathematical models of computers Model of computation Unreferenced date October 2008 A computational model is a mathematical model in computational science that requires extensive computational resource s to study the behavior of a complex system by computer simulation . The system under study is often a complex nonlinear system for which simple, intuitive analytical solution s are not readily available. Rather than deriving a mathematical analytical solution to the problem, experimentation with the model is done by adjusting the parameters of the system in the computer, and studying the differences in the outcome of the experiments. Operation theories of the model can be derived deduced from these computational experiments. Examples of common computational models are weather forecasting models, earth simulator models, flight simulator models, molecular protein folding models, and neural network models.

orphan date August 2010 cleanup date July 2010 In economics , elasticity economics elasticity is the ratio of the percent change in one variable to the percent change in another variable. Computational elasticity is the application of this concept to how computer systems scale with relation to temporal & monetary costs. The concept of computational elasticity is a particularly useful concept for comparing cloud computing platforms with relation to costs. An example question where the concept of computational elasticity is useful might include If the number of users on my website expands from 100 day to 1000000 day over the course of the next week, what will the cost be to ensure a fast page load? Cost is a function of the infrastructure the site runs on, which in turn is heavily influenced by the computational elasticity of the infrastructure. Infrastructure capable of rapidly accommodating this rapid increase in required computing power at low monetary & temporal cost has a high computational elasticity. Infrastructure that will require significant costs to handle this increase in required computing power has a low computational elasticity. Category Elasticity economics ... more details

Refimprove date September 2007 In computational complexity theory , a computational resource is a resource used by some computational model s in the solution of computational problem s. The simplest computational resources are computation time , the number of steps necessary to solve a problem, and memory space , the amount of storage needed while solving the problem, but many more complicated resources have been defined. A computational problem is generally defined in terms of its action on any valid input. Examples of problems might be given an integer n , determine whether n is prime , or given two numbers x and y , calculate the product x y . As the inputs get bigger, the amount of computational resources needed to solve a problem will increase. Thus, the resources needed to solve a problem are described in terms of asymptotic analysis , by identifying the resources as a function of the length or size of the input. Computational resources are useful because we can study which problems can be computed in a certain amount of each computational resource. In this way, we can determine whether algorithm s for solving the problem are optimal and we can make statements about an Algorithmic efficiency algorithm s efficiency . The set of all of the computational problems that can be solved using a certain amount of a certain computational resource is a complexity class , and relationships between different complexity classes are one of the most important topics in complexity theory.

Computational archaeology describes computer based analytical methods for the study of long term human behaviour and behavioural evolution. As with other sub disciplines that have prefixed computational to their name e.g. computationalbiology , computational physics and computational sociology , the term is reserved for generally mathematical methods that could not realistically be performed without the aid of a computer. Computational archaeology may include the use of Geographic information system geographical information system s GIS , especially when applied to spatial analyses such as viewshed analysis and least cost path analysis as these approaches are sufficiently computationally complex that they are extremely difficult if not impossible to implement without the processing power of a computer. Likewise, some forms of statistical and mathematical mathematical model modelling , and the computer simulation of human behaviour and behavioural evolution using software tools such as Swarm simulation Swarm or Repast Modelling toolkit Repast would also be impossible to calculate without computational aid. The application of a variety of other forms of complex and bespoke software to solve archaeological problems, such as human perception and movement within built environments using software such as University College London University College London s Space Syntax program, also falls under the term computational archaeology . Computational archaeology is also known as archaeological informatics Burenhult 2002, Huggett and Ross 2004 or archaeoinformatics sometimes abbreviated as AI , but not to be confused with artificial intelligence .

Computational irreducibility is one of the main ideas proposed by Stephen Wolfram in his book A New Kind of Science . The idea Wolfram terms the inability to shortcut a program e.g., a system , or otherwise describe its behavior in a simple way, computational irreducibility . The empiricism empirical fact is that the world of simple programs contains a great diversity of behavior , but, because of undecidability , it is impossible to predict what they will do before essentially running them. The idea demonstrates that there are occurrences where theory s predictions are effectively not possible. Wolfram states several phenomena are normally computationally irreducible. Computational irreducibility explains observed limitations of existing mainstream science. In cases of computational irreducibility, only observation and experiment can be used. Computational irreducibility may also provide a scientific based resolution for free will . Implications Nearly no easy theory for any behavior that seems complex.

Unreferenced date March 2011 Computational cognition is the study of the computational basis of learning and inference by mathematical modeling, computer simulation, and behavioral experiments, seeking to learn the basis behind the processing of information. Propositions Section OR date March 2011 To make cognition computable , the following tasks should be addressed first How to define the states and the metric systems of cognition. How to measure a cognition. In 2004, Tao Yang Wuxi Tao Yang suggested a way to put cognition into a framework that is dual to the universe . He called such a framework the cognition, and called the Universe Cognition pair the Unicogse. Theory of the Unicogse The theory of the Unicogse provides a way to assign measurable means to the foundations of cognition information and truth. Information plays the same role in the Cognition as matter plays in the universe. Truth plays the same role in the Cognition as energy plays in the universe. By doing so, we expect to measure truth and information in the cognition just like we do for energy and matter in the universe. This is a way to make cognition measurable .
