    Earlier, Mr Node gave a few tips to read his tableaux. Here he shows one in action. As an example, he again uses the version instantiated with data for the Netherlands. But now he also shows the row on the right, of control data for the program that creates the image. Here we go: first…

    Mister Node is happy. He has spent quite some time to understand what is going on with COVID-19 in six jurisdictions. He has found a structure, a tableau to show his findings.

    Kunbei is working on a project in which she studies whether simulation models can help analyze the progress of international law initiatives aimed at regulating cross-border data traffic. I may think along from time to time. A fascinating idea of her is to view the structural dynamics in international law, of the acceptance of proposed…

    Here is the data I use to calibrate the toy world I’m building to get an intellectual grip on the COVID-19 pandemic. I write this in real time. Today is June 28, 2020. I use data from worldometer. Today I have no more than the data in the table of Fig. 1 available. Twenty seven…

    The column on the left is based on registered data (worldometers.info). It shows four curves that describe COVID-19 pandemic weekly dynamics, worldwide, in numbers of fatalities and infections. Mr. Sum looks at these graphs for the stories they tell. The third one looks simplest. It show the accumulation of the numbers if people infected in…

    Here are the data that I will use to calibrate the toy world that I am building to get a grip on the COVID-19 pandemic intellectually. I write this in real time. Today is the 6th of June 2020. I use data that I harvest from worldometer. Today I just have the data in table…

    We started by showing a graph of how the pandemic developed numerically in the world by showing the model’s infection numbers and the observed infection numbers together. That led to Fig 1. Fig. 1 illustrates the world data (see top left) that have been modified in three ways to allow comparison. The rough data would…
