Multi-Agent Based Simulation (MABS)

Multi-Agent Based Simulation (MABS) is a method used to model complex systems by representing individual parts, called agents, each with their own behaviors and decision-making abilities. These agents interact within a virtual environment, allowing researchers to observe how their actions influence the overall system. MABS helps analyze dynamic scenarios like traffic flow, economic markets, or social behaviors by simulating realistic interactions, providing insights into emergent patterns that are difficult to predict with simple models. It’s a powerful tool for understanding and experimenting with complex, interconnected systems in a controlled, virtual setting.
