Implications of Simplicity
• Deep understanding leads to simple approaches to problem solving
• Simple solutions often generate time-lasting significance
• Ability to solve a complex problem simply is the highest level of competency
Three examples…….

Summary
• Clever simple approaches to problem solving can help reveal fundamental insights and/or produce key order-of-magnitude results/trends.
• It is no small feat to develop a mathematic model that is simple and generally applicable.
• The significance of a simple model of general validity can be tremendous and long lasting.
