Welcome to EECS 372/472 (Spring 2011)This course will cover various topics related to the discipline of computer simulation through multi-agent modeling (also called agent-based modeling). Multi-agent modeling specifically focusses on the study of systems where a large number of independent entities (agents) simultaneously interact with each other, resulting in emergent patterns of behavior for the system as a whole. In particular, students will gain proficiency with NetLogo, which is a sophisticated (yet easy to learn) language and environment for multi-agent modeling. Previous computer programming experience will prove helpful, but is not required.
