    Modelling and implementing open-ended evolutionary systems
    (2021) Christen, Patrik
    Having a model and being able to implement open-ended evo- lutionary systems is important for advancing our understanding of open-endedness. Complex systems science and newest generation high-level programming languages provide in-triguing possibilities to do so, respectively. Here, some recent advances in modelling and implementing open-ended evolutionary systems are reviewed first. Then, the so-called allag- matic method to describe, model, implement, and interpret complex systems is introduced. After highlighting some cur- rent modelling and implementation challenges, model building blocks of open-ended evolutionary systems are identified, a system metamodel of open-ended evolution is formalised in the allagmatic method, and an implementation prototype with a high-level programming language is outlined. The proposed approach shows statistical characteristics of open-ended evo- lutionary systems and provides a promising starting point to interpret novelty generated at runtime.

    Virtual teaching of linear algebra with complex systems and artificial intelligence case studies
    (2020) Christen, Patrik; Inglese, Terry
    Due to COVID-19, universities, higher education institutions, and schools all around the world had to shut down their on-site activities during the rst semester of the academic year 2020 and teaching had to continue in an entirely virtual setting, either asynchronously or synchronously, or in a blended learning style. Several instructors were not fully prepared to teach online and a fast adaptation to the new and unusual circumstances was needed. While this unfamiliar situation has brought technical and especially educational hurdles, instructors are currently preparing for the second semester 2020 with a new awareness, taking into account lessons learnt from the previous semester. In this abstract, we outline our instructional concept for virtually teaching a one-semester linear algebra course in the BSc program Business Information Technology at FHNW in Switzerland. Students of this study program are likely to hold management positions working at the intersection between business and IT, where it is essential to conceptually understand mathematical methods and concepts, and apply these in dynamic business projects, often involving artificial intelligence.
