Staged Representation

Staged Representation is a method used to understand complex systems by breaking them down into multiple levels or stages. Imagine analyzing a city’s infrastructure: at the first stage, you look at individual buildings; at the next, neighborhoods; then the entire city. Each stage simplifies and summarizes information from the previous one, making it easier to study and manage. This approach helps in modeling and solving complex problems by focusing on key details at each level, providing a clearer overall picture without getting overwhelmed by every tiny element at once.
