Exploring cooperation and competition using agent-based modeling

Exploring cooperation and competition using agent-based modeling.

Agent-based modeling enhances our capacity to model competitive and cooperative behaviors at both the individual and group levels of analysis. Models presented in these proceedings produce consistent results regarding the relative fragility of cooperative regimes among agents operating under diverse rules. These studies also show how competition and cooperation may generate change at both the g...

Multi-objective Modeling Based on Competition Airlines Cooperation by Game Theory and Sustainable Development Approach

In each time period, the demand of passengers for each route are finite and airlines compete for earning more profits. The complex competition among airlines causes problems, such as complicating flight planning and increasing empty seats for some routes. These problems increase air pollution and fuel consumption. To solve these problems, this research studies the cooperation of the airlines wi...

Exploring Emergent Behavior in Oscillatory Systems Using Agent-Based Modeling

The field of agent-based modeling is a relatively young field of research in which researchers define sets of agents and sets of rules that control their interactions with each other and the environment. The researcher then takes on the role of observer, watching and analyzing the behavior that emerges in the system. Because of their emphasis on emergent properties arising from simple interacti...

Agent-based Modeling of Tag-based Cooperation in Mobile Environment

Building on a review of cooperation enforcement in mobile ad hoc networks and tag-based cooperation literature in [1] and the design of mobility-aware tag-based cooperation enforcement approach [2], this article will forward the research by describing the process of building a generic model to test and evaluate the proposed approach for tag-based cooperation in mobile environment. The generic m...
