CS382:Unit-archive
Ideas we had that won't fit into this course. If you think you know where it might be used (CS128, POCO, etc.) label it as such.

- I gave up on it, cause I want to focus on my first / better idea.
I also found the idea of observing the behavior, in the lunch rooms and similar objects, of different people very interesting. Basically simulating 'green' and 'red' dots, having social even together- more various 'colors' are possible depending on the circumstances. The purpose would be to try to predict/simulate and conclude on what basis people divide/group themselves in everyday actions and needs. Regardless of the place, the mentality of people shows in this situations; which has the psychological aspect to be thought in the course. More about human behavior could be learned, if all important factors are included to the simulation. It might be wrong, but I see it as firstly trying to include the statistical aspect of it; counting the different dots; and bring some statistic about it-trying to figure out and predict the chronology of the events. Very important to include all the info that we already know, (as I said) numbers, age, possible past behaviors, and similar.
Pros
- Agent-based modeling for human behavior, plus already has a good article and science behind we can tie into

- I was thinking tsunami modeling along with hurricanes, but it may be that tsunami modeling/prediction is very difficult, and would not be useful for this class.
