[Modeling] Response to Social Aspect.

[Dr. Hong Zhu]

Hi, Jim, Yanqi, Radovan, Misty, Massimo, and everybody,

I am happy to do some organisation work for this modelling area, although I am no expert in this area at all. 

Could you please let me know your opinions about what we should put in the document and provide some sources of information on this topic? I'll try to assemble an outline in the next couple of days. 

Best regards,
Hong
