Modelling As Mapping

"Nature/philosophy is written in this grand book - The Unviverse. It continually stands open to our gaze but one cannot understand it unless one learns to comprehend the language in which it is written- the language of mathematics. Without it one is wandering in a dark labyrinth"

Why are our cities so segregated?<ul><li>Suppose we have a very tolerant society (people are happy if 50% of people around them are likes them)</li><li>Happy people will stay put while unhappy will move to other spot.</li></ul>Segregation level: 0%; Unhappy: 40-50%

Schelling's Segregation Model

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Even after every 'individual' being fairly tolerant, the society turned out to segregated.</li></ul>Segregation: 80-90%, Unhappy: 0%

Emergence Of Segregation Phenomenon 

Recommended Book by Thomas Schelling

Agent Based Modelling helps us to understand many societal phenomenon.

UCCSS Hilbert ABM1: Agent-based Modeling Introduction

ABDM, created under Digital India Campaign aims to develop an integrated health infrastructure for India. It will bridge the existing gap amongst different stakeholders of Healthcare ecosystem.

Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission

Ayushman Bharat Health Account (ABHA) Number is a unique number (like UPI ID) for sharing and accessing health records digitally.The goal is to create a uniform location to receive digital lab reports, prescription and diagnosis seamlessly from verified healthcare professionals and health service providers

ABHA Number

It is a comprehensive respository of all health facilities of the country accross different systems of medicine.It will include both public and private facilities including hospitals, clinics, diagnostic laboratories, imaging centres and pharmacies.

Health Facility Registry

It is a comprehensive respository of all healthcare professionals involved in delivery of healthcare services.It will list professionals across both modern and traditional systems of medicine (Like Ayurveda, etc)

Healthcare Professionals Registry

It is an app through which people can maintain and manage their health information in a private, secure and confidential environment.

ABHA App

Hoping to replicate the success of UPI (Unified Payments Interface), UHI aims to create an open network of End User and Health Service Provider applications.
