Digital Technologies in Modeling and Management: Insights in Education and Industry

Digital Technologies in Modeling and Management: Insights in Education and Industry explores the use of digital technologies in the modeling and control of complex systems in various fields, such as social networks, education, technical systems, and their protection and security. The book consists of two parts, with the first part focusing on modeling complex systems using digital technologies, while the second part deals with the digitalization of economic processes and their management. The book results from research conducted by leading universities’ teaching staff and contains the results of many years of scientific experiments and theoretical conclusions. The book is for a wide range of readers, including the teaching staff of higher educational institutions, graduate students, students in computer science and modeling, and management technologies, including economics. It is also a valuable resource for IT professionals and business analysts interested in using digital technologies to model and control complex systems.
