Icosystem's technology platform combines the principles of network analysis, dynamic modeling and complexity science with leading-edge computational tools to simulate a particular business ecosystem and determine the validity of opportunities that might arise.

• Technology Pillars - Icosystem's platform is built on four technology cornerstones:
  
  
  • Agent-based Modeling, which describes the behaviors of the participants in a system and explores the interactions among them.
    
    
  • Evolutionary Computation, which uses the dynamics of natural evolution to develop solutions to a problem.
    
    
  • Swarm Intelligence, which studies the systemic patterns that emerge from the individual interactions of agents in a particular environment.
    
    
  • Distributed Computing, which harnesses the power of a network of thousands of computers to rapidly perform many highly computationally intensive tasks.
    
    
    
• Core Science - In addition to these four technology pillars, Icosystem leverages concepts from complexity science in its strategic design offering. Complexity science, based on the observation of systems in nature, takes into account all of the many elements and interactions among the parts. The scientific concepts that underpin Icosystem's technology platform include:
  
  
  • Complexity Science vs. Reductionism
    
    
  • Nonlinearity vs. Connectivity
    
    
  • Emergence
    
    
  • Evolution
