Due to decelerating gains in single-core CPU performance, computationally expensive
simulations are increasingly executed on highly parallel hardware platforms. Agent-based …

Abstract Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) testing is an approach used for verification and
validation in the energy sector. However, there is no comprehensive overview of the …

Robert Siegfried presents a framework for efficient agent-based modeling and simulation of
complex systems. He compares different approaches for describing structure and dynamics …

This chapter discusses the intersection between two research fields:(1) Multi-Agent Systems
(MAS) and (2) computer simulation. On the one hand, MAS refer to a computer research …

Reports of cyber security breaches are common in the media and security events have
affected millions. Even with a greater awareness of cyber security, the problem has not …

From modeling and simulation to games and entertainment With contributions from leaders
in systems and organizational modeling, behavioral and social sciences, computing and …

Several fields have created ontologies for their subdomains. For example, the biological
sciences have developed extensive ontologies such as the Gene Ontology, which is …

The PDES literature offers a rich set of techniques for distributed and efficient simulation.
However, there is a growing need for simulators that support agent-based applications, and …

In this article we describe HLA_AGENT, a tool for the distributed simulation of agent-based
systems, which integrates the SIM_AGENT agent toolkit and the High Level Architecture …

Large, experimental multi‐agent system (MAS) simulations are highly demanding tasks,
both computationally and developmentally. Agent toolkits provide reliable templates for the …
