Fwd: New issue of Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation, vol. 13(1)

[Robert Holmes]

Latest edition of JASS is out. It includes a paper "Projected diffusion of Apple iPad through physically and demographically diverse small-world networks"

OK, it doesn't but I figured that was the only way I could attract Owen's attention....
