Multi-agent analysis of industrial networks : a South African bio-energy case study
Industrial networks are complex structures consisting of multiple interacting enterprises, differing in nature, each with independent (often conflicting) objectives, producing numerous, possibly competing products. These networks play an important role in meeting basic human needs and contributing …
