1 In the complexity and simulation communities there is growing support for the use of bottom-up computer-based simulation in the analysis of complex systems. The presumption is th...
Multi-agent systems (MASs), comprised of autonomous entities with the aim to cooperate to reach a common goal, may be viewed as computational models of distributed complex systems ...
Syntactic models should be descriptively adequate and parsable. A syntactic description is autonomous in the sense that it has certain explicitformal properties. Such a descriptio...
