Agent-based modeling: A revolution? [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2002 A clear consensus among the papers in this Colloquium is that agent-based modeling is a revolutionary development for social science. However, the reasons to expect this revolution lie more in the potential seen in this tool than through realized results. In order for the anticipated revolution to occur, a series of challenges must be met.

The Origin of Money: An Agent-Based Model [PDF]
Advances in Artificial Life, ECAL 2013, 2013 The benefits of money as a medium of exchange are obvious, but the historical origin of money is less clear. An existing economic model of monetary search is reproduced as an agentbased simulation and an evolutionary algorithm is used to model social learning.

Bottom-up ecology: an agent-based model on the interactions between competition and predation
Letters in Biomathematics, 2016 We developed an agent-based computer model of an ecosystem to predict interactions of competition and predation. In our simulations of the model, the effects of the ‘Gause law’ emerged as the results of population fluctuations and a large number of ...

Agent-based models of malaria transmission: a systematic review
Malaria Journal, 2018 Background Much of the extensive research regarding transmission of malaria is underpinned by mathematical modelling. Compartmental models, which focus on interactions and transitions between population strata, have been a mainstay of such modelling for ...

A Methodology for Agent-Oriented Analysis and Design
, 1999 This paper presents a methodology for agent-oriented analysis and design. The methodology is general, in that it is applicable to a wide range of multi-agent systems, and comprehensive, in that it deals with both the macro-level (societal) and the micro ...
