Meyer, RuthHilty, Lorenz M.Gilgen, Paul W.2019-09-162019-09-162001https://dl.gi.de/handle/20.500.12116/26663Agent-based simulation adopts a microscopic view on the system under consideration, representing the relevant entities in terms of agents. An agent-based simulation model thus forms a multi-agent system: a set of agents, existing and interacting in an environment. Often the environment has to be spatially explicit. So a vital requirement of a tool for agent-based simulation is to adequately facilitate modelling space. Other requirements include the specification of the agents' behaviour and interactions, and providing a suitable simulation infrastructure. The frameworkFAMOS presented in this paper extends a framework for discrete-event simulation. Major concepts comprise basing simulated space on directed graphs and modelling agent behaviours as finite-stat e machines.Text/Conference Paper
