Abstract :
This paper provides an overview of some of the techniques and methodologies utilized in the modelling of complex systems that involve many interacting components with different physical properties over different spatial and temporal scales. Such systems are difficult to resolve, since they exhibit high levels of uncertainty. We discuss modelling strategies and present some applications from the field of complex system modelling.
