Research: Agent-Based Modeling

profilegopichand419

Background: As noted by Turban (2015), the term agent is derived from the concept of agency, referring to employing someone to act on one's behalf. A human agent represents a person and interacts with others to accomplish a predetermined task. The concept of agents goes surprisingly far back more than 60 years ago.

Assignment: Go to pages 461 to 464 and familiarize yourself with the topic tagged Agent-Based Modeling and summarize and describe the characteristics of an agent-based simulation model, also list the various factors that were fed into the agent-based simulation model which was described in the case. You are also required to talk briefly on the benefits of using agent-based simulation models and mention other situations where agent-based simulation could be employed apart from using it to prevent disease.

Your research paper should be at least 3 pages (800 words), double-spaced, have at least 4 APA references, and typed in an easy-to-read font in MS Word (other word processors are fine to use but save it in MS Word format). Your cover page should contain the following: Title, Student’s name, University’s name, Course name, Course number, Professor’s name, and Date.
