SIMUSE: an agent-based simulation on recreational polydrug users
This paper describes an attempt to capture individual and social characteristics of polydrug use in a generic agent-based model called SimUse. We consider poly-drug use and its social context as a complex adaptive system and use a generative framework to create an iterative dialogue between observations, theoretical constructs and computer simulations. This iterative process allows us, through ...
متن کاملAn Agent-Based Simulation Method For Studying Nervous System
This paper describes an agent-based method for modeling and simulation of the cerebellar cortex of nervous system in particular and for complex systems in general. By modular and hierarchical model design, this method allows us to enhance the system model under study without having to rebuild the whole model. We also discuss how well our agent-based method is sound for the study of these system...
متن کاملAgent-based Simulation Platforms: An Updated Review
We review and evaluate two related agent-based simulation platforms: version 5.0 of NetLogo and the ReLogo component of Repast. We implemented the “StupidModel” series of 16 pseudo-models in both platforms; these codes contain many elements of basic agent-based models and can serve as templates for programming real models. Subsequent to the similar review we published in 2006, NetLogo has evolv...
متن کاملAn Ontology for Agent-based Modeling and Simulation
Ontologies are a formal methodology for establishing a common vocabulary, for defining the concepts and relationships between those concepts of a particular domain, and for reasoning about the objects, behaviors, and knowledge that comprises the domain. In this paper, we present an ontology for agent-based modeling and simulation. Agent-based modeling and simulation has become an important and ...
متن کاملBook Review: "Developing Expertise Through Experience"
The book ‘Developing expertise through experience’consists of twenty chapters written by language educators. Alan Maley has edited the book. The writers of the chapters have written their stories and experiences about learning English and being an Educator with regard to the notion of ‘sense of plausibility’ defined by Prabhu. Prabhu explains that plausibility in pedagogy is teachers’ intuition...
