Gastvortrag von Professorin Susan M. Sanchez

Wir vom ITPL freuen uns sehr, Frau Professorin Susan M. Sanchez von der Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, Kalifornien, USA, willkommen zu heißen und laden Sie herzlich zu einem Gastvortrag mit dem Thema: „Data Farming: The Meanings and Methods behind the Metaphor“ ein. Frau Professorin Sanchez ist in den Feldern Modellierung und Simulation weltberühmt und insbesondere für ihre Arbeiten zum Data Farming bekannt. Sie ist Professorin und Direktorin des SEED Center for Data Farming  an der renommierten Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey (CA, USA).

Data Farming: The Meanings and Methods behind the Metaphor
Data farming captures the notion of purposeful data generation from simulation models. The ready availability of computing power has fundamentally changed the way simulation and other computational models can be used to provide insights to decision makers. Large-scale designed experiments let us grow the simulation output efficiently and effectively. We can explore massive input spaces, use statistical and visualization techniques to uncover interesting features of complex response surfaces, and explicitly identify cause-and-effect relationships. In this talk, I will provide a brief overview of data farming, and describe its relationship to emerging techniques in data science and analytics. I will draw on several recent studies on a variety of applications including COVID test-based policy intervention, solar panel design, logistics, and disaster relief operations.
