Additional information

This paper was awarded the 2012 PNAS Cozzarelli Prize (Engineering and Applied Sciences category), an annual award that acknowledges “papers that reflect scientific excellence and originality” (http://www.pnas.org/site/misc/cozzarelliprize.xhtml). It was a break-through paper that provided a data driven framework for modelling spatiotemporal dynamics from event data and the first to provide a highly quantitative modelling of conflict dynamics. The research attracted media interest, notably in Science News (http://www.sciencenews.org/view/generic/id/342322/description/Afghanistan_on_240_incidents_a_week) and Los-Angeles Times in the US. The software was also provided for evaluation upon request to NATO mission in Afghanistan (Kyle Pizzey, International Security Assistance Force Fusion Cell Chief).
