Scientists and engineers are comping up with new ways of modeling the real world all the time. Locate a recent (no older than 5 years) scholarly peer-reviewed article that deals with the creation and testing of a mathematical or computational model for some real world phenomenon (e.g., waiting in line at the grocery store). Write a short summary of the article in which you answer the following questions:
• What problem were the authors trying to solve? In other words, what was going wrong that the mathematical/computational model will help the authors address?
• How was the model built? What were its parameters and limitations?
What is a problem, i.e., something that’s going wrong, that might be able to be remedied or better understood by creating a computational or mathematical model for the real-world phenomenon? For example, “Customers find wait times for rides at Disney World to be unacceptable.”
• What is the background on this problem? What information must one understand to be able to understand the problem?
• What is the impact of the problem? Whom does it affect and how? Support the existence of the problem, its effects, and all factual assertions with at least four (4) scholarly peerreviewed sources. You may use popular and industry sources as needed and appropriate also.
Format your submission according to the APA style guide. Remember that all work should be your own original work and assistance received from any source and any references used must be authorized and properly documented. Recommended length: 2-3 pages double-spaced not including front and back matter
