1. Gathering and Analyzing Public Opinion ( 4 Pages or Minimum 1000 words)

Table 7.4 shows the opinion mining tools that have been developed to analyze public opinions. Janssen, Wimmer, and Deljoo (2015) tells us that these mining tools can policymakers and decision-makers with making more informed decisions.

Select and elaborate on 1 or more of the Opinion Mining Tools. See what you can find with a google search. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the opinion mining tools that you select.

2. Generic Steps for Developing Simulation Models (4 Pages or Minimum 1000 words)

Janssen, Wimmer, and Deljoo (2015) shows the generic steps for developing simulation models (Fig. 6.1). Some of the generic steps in the process can be skipped or combined depending on the policy being modeled. However, the appropriate experience is needed by the designer to determine which steps can and should be manipulated.

Elaborate on the generic steps for developing simulation models.
