Simulation experiments are not conducted in a vacuum. They are performed to address specific research questions that require evaluation of testable hypotheses. However, the connections among goals, hypotheses, and experiments are often characterized in an ad hoc manner. In this paper, we examine symbiotic dependencies among goals, hypotheses, and experiments within the context of computational discovery...
Agent Based Modeling and Simulation (ABMS) is considered an effective approach for conducting simulation studies in many fields. In order to develop high quality simulation models, methodological approaches are demanded. In such direction we are moving by proposing a heuristic for the formalization of agent based simulation problems. The proposed heuristic is based on some guidelines developed for...
i∗ is a goal-oriented and agent-oriented modeling framework that focuses on the analysis of intentional and strategic relationships among actors. In this mini-tutorial, we highlight a number of recent applications in practical industrial and business settings.
Software product quality and project productivity require defining suitable software process models. The best process depends on the circumstances where it is applied. Typically, a process engineer tailors a specific process for each project or each project type from an organizational software process model. Frequently, tailoring is performed in an informal and reactive fashion, which is expensive,...
