Simulating Human Behavior: an Agent-based Modeling Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new methology using agent-based modeling for human behavior simulation is presented. This approach aims to address the limitations and/or challenges of dealing with behavioral components in existing building simulation programs. Also, it tries to improve behavior decision process by mimicking actual occupants in buildings. In a simulation experiment, a window use behavior was tested with agent-based modeling and demonstrated its ability to account for dynamic changes of the behavior, in realtime, and the behavior impact on both the microclimate and energy uses in a space.

In knowledge-based economy, knowledge has a public good and non-rivalry nature. Firms build their own knowledge stock not only by means of internal R&D and collaboration with partners, but also by means of previously spilled over knowledge of other firms and public research laboratories (such as universities). Firms based on their absorptive capacity, and level of intra-industry and extra-indus...

Agent-based modeling (ABM) is a powerful simulation modeling technique in the last few years. ABM, as an approach to simulating the behavior of a complex system in which agents interact with each other and with their environment using simple local rules, is gaining popularity and widespread use in many areas. Successes of this approach in predicting traffic flow in metropolitan areas, the sprea...
