In the fast moving world of smart urban conglomerates, emergency services need to move even faster through the crowded infrastructure. Providing the emergency crew with a route that avoids congestions can save valuable travel time. It is challenging to compute such a route fast enough for practical usage while taking into consideration traffic fluctuations, uncertainties, and unpredictable user behaviour...
Agent-based modeling (ABM) allows implementing negotiated behaviors between individual agents. Little is known on how individually preferred behavioral patterns adapt within office spaces used by multiple people. Even less is known about the effect of such negotiated behaviors on the occupants’ satisfaction in terms of preferred indoor thermal conditions and the level of perceived control. In order...
Traffic congestions have huge impact on urban transportation and are even more problematic when emergency vehicles are present, their fast travel requirements disrupting regular traffic. The aim of this study is to formulate an agent based simulation perspective on aiding the design of complex and distributed control systems, such as the one facilitating the arrival of the emergency vehicles to accident...
As water extractions from the world's rivers have grown, flows available for the environment have dwindled. In many parts of the world governments are now considering strategies to restore environmental flows. One strategy is for a government to buyback water from irrigators for the environment with annual lease arrangements. In this paper we have studied the role of market competition (in terms of...
The effectiveness evaluation of C4ISR is playing a more and more important role in its designing, developing and using. According to its characters, such as complexity and intelligence, the traditional evaluation methods and systems are not feasible and effective enough. In this paper, a multi-agent based simulation and evaluation framework of C4ISR is advanced, which includes the architecture and...
To elucidate the impact of CO2 Emission-Trading on the European electricity production system-of-systems an Agent Based Model has been developed. The model emulates the long-term evolution of the European electricity production system-of-systems as a series of investment decisions by independent agents. Simulation results are reported that underpin recommendations for European CO2-policy. A live model...
