  2. 1. Improving the performance of distributed multi-agent based simulation

    Author : Dawit Mengistu; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; agent based simulation; MABS; distributed systems; application performance;

    Abstract : This research investigates approaches to improve the performance of multi-agent based simulation (MABS) applications executed in distributed computing environments. MABS is a type of micro-level simulation used to study dynamic systems consisting of interacting entities, and in some cases, the number of the simulated entities can be very large. READ MORE

  4. 2. Transport policy analysis using multi-agent-based simulation

    Author : Linda Ramstedt; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Transportation; Transport chain; Multi-agent-based simulation; Transport policy; Logistics; Decisions;

    Abstract : This thesis explores how multi-agent-based simulation can be used for transport policy analysis. Transport policies are often used as a means to reach governmental goals, such as environmental targets to reduce the impact of transportation. READ MORE

  5. 3. Modelling the Structural Dynamics of Business Networks : Two Agent-based Models of Supply Networks

    Author : Sara Shahin Moghadam; Frans Prenkert; Franziska Klügl; Magnus Hansson; Davide Secchi; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Business networks; dynamics; Agent-based modelling; structural change; responses; interactions; complex adaptive systems;

    Abstract : This thesis aims at describing and analysing the structural changes of business networks that emerge as a result of change triggers. Despite previous studies, our understanding of the evolution of the network structure and its influencing factors is still limited. READ MORE

  6. 4. A Learning-driven Approach for Behavior Modeling in Agent-based Simulation

    Author : Robert Junges; Franziska Klügl; Mathias Broxvall; Lars Braubach; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; agent-based simulation; agent modeling; agent learning;

    Abstract : Agent-based simulation is a prominent application of the agent-based system metaphor. One of the main characteristics of this simulation paradigm is the generative nature of the outcome: the macro-level system behavior is generated from the micro-level agent behavior. READ MORE

  7. 5. Multi-Agent Based Simulations in the Grid Environment

    Author : Dawit Mengistu; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Grid computing; Multi-agent Based Simulation; Performance Modeling; Performance Prediction;

    Abstract : The computational Grid has become an important infrastructure as an execution environment for scientific applications that require large amount of computing resources. Applications which would otherwise be unmanageable or take a prohibitively longer execution time under previous computing paradigms can now be executed efficiently on the Grid within a reasonable time.
