Modelling maritime interaction in the Aegean Bronze Age [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Abstract The authors raise spatial analysis to a new level of sophistication – and insight – in proposing a mathematical model of ‘imperfect optimisation’ to describe maritime networks. This model encodes, metaphorically, the notion of gravitational attraction between objects in space. The space studied here is the southern Aegean in the Middle Bronze Age, and the objects are the 34 main sites we know about. The ‘gravitation’ in this case is a balance of social forces, expressed by networks with settlements of particular sizes and links of particular strengths. The model can be tweaked by giving different relative importance to the cultivation of local resources or to trade, and to show what happens when a member of the network suddenly disappears. 【摘要翻译】内容摘要 作者将空间分析的复杂性和洞察力提升到了一个新的高度,提出了一个 "不完美优化 "的数学模型来描述海事网络。该模型隐喻了空间中物体之间的引力吸引概念。这里研究的空间是青铜时代中期的爱琴海南部,对象是我们已知的 34 个主要遗址。这里的 "引力 "是社会力量的平衡,表现为具有特定规模的聚落和特定强度的联系网络。这个模型可以进行调整,赋予当地资源的耕种或贸易不同的相对重要性,并展示当网络中的一个成员突然消失时会发生什么。
