Agent Design for Agent-Based Modelling
To build an agent-based computational model of a specific socio-environmental system requires that answers be found to several important questions including: what social actors and contextual entities are to be modelled as software agents? With what mental functions must these software agents be equipped? What standard design or designs should be used to create the software agents? This paper c...
متن کاملComparative analysis of agent-based and population-based modelling in epidemics and economics
This paper addresses comparative evaluation of population-based simulation in comparison to agent-based simulation for different numbers of agents. Population-based simulation, such as for example in the classical approaches to predator-prey modelling and modelling of epidemics, has computational advantages over agent-based modelling with large numbers of agents. Therefore the latter approaches...
متن کاملAgent Based Modelling of Aid
The issue of modelling international financial aid to underdeveloped countries baffled economists for decades. The initial assumptions (that outside aid could help bolster up the internally insufficient investment, thus helping economic growth) were statistically proven wrong; most of the recipient countries did not experience rapid growth, rather an increasing dependence on foreign aid. The qu...
متن کاملAgent-Based Modelling of Forces in Crowds
Recent events have highlighted the importance of good models of crowds, however many existing crowd models are either computationally inefficient, or are missing a crucial human behaviour in crowds: local pushing. After discussing some essential aspects of force in crowds, and considering some existing models, we propose an efficient agent-based model of crowd evacuation that incorporates pushi...
متن کاملAgent-based modelling in synthetic biology
Biological systems exhibit complex behaviours that emerge at many different levels of organization. These span the regulation of gene expression within single cells to the use of quorum sensing to co-ordinate the action of entire bacterial colonies. Synthetic biology aims to make the engineering of biology easier, offering an opportunity to control natural systems and develop new synthetic syst...
