A generic business process model for conducting microsimulation studies

Burgard, Jan Pablo; Dieckmann, Hanna; Krause, Joscha; … - In: Statistics in Transition New Series 21 (2020) 4, pp. 191-211

Microsimulations make use of quantitative methods to analyze complex phenomena in populations. They allow modeling socioeconomic systems based on micro-level units such as individuals, households, or institutional entities. However, conducting a microsimulation study can be challenging. It often...

Modeling Oligarchs' Campaign Donations and Ideological Preferences with Simulated Agent-Based Spatial Elections

Wright, Mason; Sengupta, Pratim - In: Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation 18 (2015) 2, pp. 3-3

In this paper, we investigate the interactions among oligarchs, political parties, and voters using an agent-based modeling approach. We introduce the OLIGO model, which is based on the spatial model of democracy, where voters have positions in a policy space and vote for the party that appears...

An Agent-Based Model to Explore Game Setting Effects on Attitude Change During a Role Playing Game Session

Dubois, Emmanuel; Barreteau, Olivier; Souchère, Véronique - In: Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation 16 (2013) 1, pp. 2-2

Role playing games (RPGs) can be used as participatory simulation methods for environmental management. However, researchers in the field need to be aware of the influence of the game settings on participants' behavioural patterns and attitudes, before fine tuning the design and use of their...

The Results of Meadows and Cliff Are Wrong Because They Compute Indicator y Before Model Convergence

Deffuant, Guillaume; Weisbuch, Gérard; Amblard, Frederic; … - In: Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation 16 (2013) 1, pp. 11-11

Meadows and Cliff (2012) failed to replicate the results of Deffuant et al. (2002) and concluded that our paper was wrong. In this note, we show that the conclusions of Meadows and Cliff are due to a wrong computation of indicator y, which was not fully specified in our 2002 paper. In...
