Q-1:
- Agents
- Models meant to abstractly represent people and other entities since they gather information about the world, make decisions, and take actions. They usually are set up to interact with others within a space or network. Usually don’t have all the information about where they are at. There are often differences between them. These models often include a form of randomness, in the world or in the models themselves.
- Agnet-Based Models
- These models are computational models that are intended to simulate actions and interactions of autonomous agents with a view to assessing their effects on the systems as a whole.
- Computationally Irreducible
- The only way to get the outcome is to implement the system.
- Emergent Property
- It is a characteristic of a system that is the result of interaction of its components of the system not its properties.
- Schelling’s Model
- A grid where a cell represents a house and the houses are occupied by two kinds of agents in roughly equal numbers.
- Sugarscape
- Model intended to support experiments related to economics and other social sciences based in an artificial society.
- Metabolism
- The ammount of suguar consumed per time step.
- Sugar
- Agents starts with an endowment of this chosen from a uniform distribution between 5 and 25 units.
- Vision
- Agents can "see" the amount of suguar in nearby cells.
