Title: Mapping and Tracking Hidden Social Systems in Urban Landscape
Professor Susu Nousala proposes to map and track the hidden social systems in the urban landscape - this work is important so that we can better understand the dynamic social systems embedded in the urban landscape that we participate in and that affect our daily lives.Methodology through quality, quantification, and presentation of results;Discuss why it is "belonging";Work development process;Ecosystem of system network construction;The 2019 output project, the pod house project (green laboratories for industrial research connected to the world network), proposes the need to build and develop living ecosystems for long-term industrial and educational outcomes.

Title: Applying Complex Adaptive Systems Theory to Understand Edge-Effect Dynamics on Embedded Social and Physical Systemic Resilience within Megapolitan areas
Dr. Kim Galindo and professor Kim Galindo studied the ontology model construction of adaptive system of urban life complex.This work is based on a method of action research through elastodynamic lenses.The case study was conducted in Xochimilco, a district south of Mexico City, a unique ecosystem that originated in pre-spanish and pre-aztec times.The region is essentially an evolving artificial agricultural/ecological island structure that provides environmental services to the urban areas of Mexico City.As a continuous, living, collective, the community around the city itself is still a continuous process.Thus, it can be considered as a phenomenon that contributes to the understanding of observable elastic elements of life, suburbs, and complex adaptive systems.This action study has a vertical process approach designed to provide the environment and scope necessary to reflect and address the physical and intangible nature of any public, horizontal and multilevel, adaptive, complex and peri-urban ecosystem.

Title: General Problem of Environmental Systems Perception
Jelena Sucic points out that urban people's perception of the system mainly focuses on three aspects: economic system, social system and cultural system.The general problem is that persistent environmental problems and changes cannot be located in any of these three systems.We learn to value our product-related lives and to measure our lives by the amount of possessions and choices we have.These determine our standard of living within the economic, social and cultural system.Previously, we were unaware of the impact of products, properties and choices on our lives;We have paused to reconsider the relationship between our behavioral choices and the state of the environment.
