, tools for modeling and simulating processes by computational and mathematical methods have provided a structure for integrating knowledge gained from observational science and predicting future responses or outcomes. The four presentations in this session highlight recent advances in technolo gies that have opened new windows into how systems comprising discrete members organize and interact.

On a much different scale, Riley Duren introduces us to the kepler space telescope, which helps answer fundamental questions about the formation of solar systems and the frequencies of Earth-like planets. Finally, Carla Gomes describes advances in the new field of computational sustainability that can contribute to the health of the environment, the success of our economy, and human well-being.
