Klappentext zu „Measuring and Understanding Complex Phenomena “
Indicators are more and more applied to describe and analyze complex systems. Typical examples: Innovation potential of nations, child-well being, Environmental health, poverty, chemical pollution, corruption of nations. The task is: How can a system of indicators be defined in order to fulfill the above expectations. One possibility is the application of the mathematical theory of partial order, especially when the indicator system shall be used for ranking purposes.

Autoren-Porträt
Rainer Bruggemann studied chemistry with a focus on theoretical and mathematical concepts. He was working at several research institutes and was teaching mathematical modelling in Environmental Chemistry at several universities. His interest also focuses on indicators and their analysis. Lars Carlsen has more than 35 years of experience in R&D, technical support and training activities within the environmental field. His current research interests include areas like sustainable development, model tools, such as structure-activity relationships and ranking techniques as decision support tools and development and application of multi-criteria data analysis tools within environmental - and social science.
