release four mobile data sets, collected from 2004
onward, that contain the dynamics of several
communities of about 100 people each. We
invite researchers to propose and submit their own
applications of the data to demonstrate the scientific
and business values of the data sets, suggest how to
meaningfully extend these experiments to larger
populations, and to develop the math that fits
agent-based or systems dynamics models to larger
populations. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
