An agent-based simulation model of structural change in agriculture
… as age and education, and resource endowments. Agent-based simulation captures this heterogeneity through a farm by farm analysis, where after initialization, the regional economy evolves over time.A synthetic population is created based on survey data and the land characteristics based on the …

Game theoretic analysis and agent-based simulation of electricity markets
… part, a specific electricity auction mechanism based on a Japanese power market is investigated analytically from several game theoretic viewpoints. In the second part, electricity auctions are simulated using agent-based modeling.

An agent-based simulation study of the social contagion of divorce
An agent-base model based on an epidemiological SIRa model of infectious diseases is used for the simulation of the social contagion of divorce in this work. First, two simple SIR and SIRa models are implemented and the results of their simulation outcomes analyzed. Then, using machine learning …

Re-Thinking Supplier Risk Management With Case Studies and Agent-Based Simulation
… research uses a series of case studies and an agent based simulation to investigate how firms doand shouldacquire information to manage risks inherent in supplier processes. Managing this risk born from supplier non-compliance is important because it can not only threaten a firms reputation and …

Increasing forest cover amidst expanding commercial agriculture: An agent-based simulation of markets and rural livelihoods in the Indian Himalayas
… of commercial crop cultivation, a dynamic, agent-based model was designed to assess the relationship between household crop choices and market dynamics. Households were modeled as “consumers of choices” who evaluate and select choices with the best outcomes. Rather than focusing exclusively …
