Axelrod_Cultural_Dissemination.png

Axelrod_Cultural_Dissemination

The Axelrod's model of cultural dissemination is an agent-model designed to investigate the dissemination of culture among interacting agents on a society.

Artificial Anasazi

Replication of the well known Artificial Anasazi model that simulates the population dynamics between 800 and 1350 in the Long House Valley in Arizona.

A model of environmental awareness spread and its effect in resource consumption reduction

The model reproduces the spread of environmental awareness among agents and the impact of awareness level of the agents on the consumption of a resource, like energy. An agent is a household with a set of available advanced smart metering functions.

Torsten Hägerstrand’s Spatial Innovation Diffusion Model

This model is a replication of Torsten Hägerstrand's 1965 model--one of the earliest known calibrated and validated simulations with implicit "agent based" methodology.

MOOvPOPsurveillance

MOOvPOPsurveillance was developed as a tool for wildlife agencies to guide collection and analysis of disease surveillance data that relies on non-probabilistic methods like harvest-based sampling.
