The Performance of Silicon Based Sensor and its Application in Silver Toxicity Studies
… ppt ionic silver solution is up to 120 mV. The complex agent can effectively suppress the ionic silver concentration and suppress the OCP signal. The ability of complex agent to suppress the OCP signal depends on the formation constant of the complex with silver. The complex adsorbed on the …

SimLogo : improving simulations in StarLogo TNG
… professionals were using StarLogo TNG for more complex agent-based simulations than it had been originally designed to support. This thesis outlines the design and implementation of a new suite of features, code-named SimLogo, which will improve the simulation capabilities of StarLogo TNG …

Intelligence by design : principles of modularity and coordination for engineering complex adaptive agents
… - for example, the search for an intelligent agent's next action. Search is only likely to succeed in resource-bounded agents if they have already been biased towards finding the right answer. In artificial agents, the primary source of bias is engineering. This dissertation describes an …

Sensitivity Analysis and Forecasting in Network Epidemiology Models
… range from simple compartmental models to complex agent-based models. In this dissertation, we present a model-based reasoning approach to forecasting the epidemic curve and estimating underlying disease model parameters. The method is based on building an epidemic library consisting of …

A High Performance C++ Generic Benchmark for Computational Epidemiology
… Hence, the model and the computation form a complex agent based system and are highly compute and resource intensive. In this work, we design a benchmark consisting of several kernels which capture the essential compute, communication, and data access patterns for such applications. For each …
