Overuse of Natural Resources: Finding Solutions with Agent-based Simulation

نویسنده

  • Hans-Joachim Mosler
چکیده

A computer simulation will be presented, which allows studying populations of 10,000 resource-using people. Simulation experiments can be conducted with populations whose initial parameters lead to resource depletion over the long or short term. Systematic experiments using this approach make it possible to determine which measures may lead to sustainable resource use.

Coordination Approach to Find Best Defense Decision with Multiple Possibilities among Robocup Soccer Simulation Team

In 2D Soccer Simulation league, agents will decide based on information and data in their model. Effective decisions need to have world model information without any noise and missing data; however, there are few solutions to omit noise in world model data; so we should find efficient ways to reduce the effect of noise when making decisions. In this article we evaluate some simple solutions whe...

Allocating Educational Resources through Happiness Maximization and Traditional CSP Approach

An instance of an Educational Resources Allocation (ERA) problem is the distribution of a set of students in different laboratories. This can be a complex and dynamic problem if non-quantitative considerations (i.e. how close the final allocation is to the student preferences or desires) are involved in the decision process. Traditionally, different approaches based on Constraint-Satisfaction t...

Assessing the Effects of Different Incision Techniques on Ferula assafoetida Properties

The extinction of some of medical plants is not only due to the overuse of them and the grazing pressure but also their incorrect exploitation methods. Ferula assafoetida is one of the most important medical plants in Iranian rangelands, which is gradually disappeared from its habitats due to destructive traditional exploitations. Therefore, in order to determine how different incision techniqu...

The effect of climate change on flow regime using two meteorological and hydrological indices

An important and fundamental issue in Iran is to utilize water and to avoid wasting it. Therefore, climate change can be considered as an effective factor on water resources. The most tangible climate change phenomenon is drought which is much important to be identified. In this study, the effect of climate changes on flow rate in Bashar River, Shahmokhtar station of Yasouj city was evaluated u...
