Simulation, Consulting and Freelancing Articles

On this challenge I will show two little tricks and things you should think about when you are developing an agent based or hybrid model. In this particular case, we want to initialize 100 agents depending on the state of the other 99. Of course there may be other ways […]

Have you ever been in a situation where you want to generate a complex scenario in the simulation experiment but you have no idea how to do it? There are features in AnyLogic that require the simulation model to be on runtime mode in order to work and will not[…]

Before I start, don’t expect me to explain all these methodologies in detail since there is already a lot of material on the web that can help you. Wikipedia is good starting point with the following links if you are interested in the technical details: System Dynamics Discrete Events Agent-Based[…]
