JAMES II - Experiences and Interpretations

The need for flexible modelling and simulation environments for multi-agent systems has early been identified [4]. Developing modelling and simulation systems from scratch wastes a lot of time, which might be better applied to the actual model [6]. Modelling and Simulation is prone to a number of pitfalls, which hinder the proper interpretation of the results achieved [2, 3]. JAMES II has been ...

Poincaré Duality and Periodicity, Ii. James Periodicity

Let K be a connected finite complex. This paper studies the problem of whether one can attach a cell to some iterated suspension ΣK so that the resulting space satisfies Poincaré duality. When this is possible, we say that ΣK is a spine. We introduce the notion of quadratic self duality and show that if K is quadratically self dual, then ΣK is a spine whenever j is a suitable power of two. The ...

Towards reproducible simulation studies with JAMES II

Knowing how scientific results are obtained, meaning to know which methods, techniques, algorithms, software etc. were used, is important for those scientific results to be credible. Documentation and provenance data provide exactly this information. However, providing documentation and provenance data is not trivial. In the domain of Modeling & Simulation a multitude of different building bloc...

James

a chair, he was the very picture of dejection. His small head was hanging, an obstreperous tuft of the coarse, sandy hair standing defiantly upright on the crown of it; his complexion was sallow and pasty, and not in any way enhanced by a sparse scattering of tiny yellow freckles, plainly visible at close view; his generous mouth drooped, like his head, the lips pale, but firmly closed. In his ...
