TL;DR: A proposed standard protocol for describing IBMs and ABMs, developed and tested by 28 modellers who cover a wide range of fields within ecology, and considered as a first step for establishing a more detailed common format of the description of IBm and ABM.
Journal ArticleDOI
The ODD protocol: A review and first update
TL;DR: The definition of ODD is revised to clarify aspects of the original version and thereby facilitate future standardization of ABM descriptions and improves the rigorous formulation of models and helps make the theoretical foundations of large models more visible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pattern-oriented modeling of agent-based complex systems: lessons from ecology
Volker Grimm,Eloy Revilla,Uta Berger,Florian Jeltsch,Wolf M. Mooij,Steven F. Railsback,Hans-Hermann Thulke,Jacob Weiner,Thorsten Wiegand,Donald L. DeAngelis +9 more
TL;DR: This paper argues that recent advances in ecological modeling have come together in a general strategy that provides a unifying framework for decoding the internal organization of agent-based complex systems and may lead toward unifying algorithmic theories of the relation between adaptive behavior and system complexity.
Book
Individual-based modeling and ecology
Volker Grimm,Steven F. Railsback +1 more
TL;DR: An excellent introduction and overview of this field, written by Volker Grimm and Steven F. Railsback, should be read by everyone interested in individual-based modeling and especially by anyone contemplating developing, or being involved with a group developing, an individualbased model.
Book
Agent-Based and Individual-Based Modeling: A Practical Introduction
Steven F. Railsback,Volker Grimm +1 more
TL;DR: This innovative textbook gives students and scientists the skills to design, implement, and analyze agent-based models and provides an introduction to NetLogo, an easy-to-use, free, and powerful software platform.
