The Challenge
Convert an open-ended problem into an explainable, computable, and clearly communicated model under time pressure.
Approach
- Defined assumptions, variables, and system boundaries
- Compared candidate models and tested sensitivity
- Used visualization to support reasoning and collaboration
System Structure
- Problem decomposition and assumptions
- Mathematical models and computational experiments
- Visualization and written communication
Outcomes
- Delivered the team model and paper
- Built a complete abstraction-to-communication workflow
- Strengthened delegation and technical communication
