'''Proposed Format'''
There's a similar idea proposed by both Kai and Andrew in the "discussion" section, and interested people will meet at lunch on Friday .. maybe this could all be pooled together. [http://www.santafe.edu/events/workshops/index.php/Amelie_Veron Amelie]
* This is proposed as a mix of discussion, tutorials and demonstrations.


 
Merged content previously on this page with the [[Communicating complexity]] topic. - [[Brian Lawler]]
'''Candiate Topics for Discusion'''
* How to express complexity to people who ''are not'' adept at some of the tools we are using in the CSSS program - differential equations, MatLab, the vocabulary of complexity and chaos, ''etc''.  
* How to express complexity in the tools of everyday business and government workers - PowerPoint, Excel, etc.
* How to engage effectively with skilled professionals (engineers, economists, accounting/finance, ...) in their vocabulary
* Are their extensions to existing, relatively widely used, modeling tools such as flow charts, data flow diagrams, UML models, etc. that can properly express complex systems?
 
 
'''Participants'''
* [[Brian Lawler]] - Proposed this topic. Lots of experience engaging multi-disciplinary (tech and non-tech) stakeholders, adept at UML/DFDs/etc.
