Pro-environmental behavior does not diffuse sufficiently in society. Is there a way to enhance the degree of people's pro-environmental behavior? This study aims to develop a dynamic model of mutual learning in social networks to simulate the diffusion of pro-environmental behavior and to search...

The Naming Game is an agent-based model where individuals communicate to name an initially unnamed object. On a large class of networks continual pairwise interactions lead the system to an ultimate consensus state, in which agents onverge on a globally shared name. Soon after the introduction...

We present a novel approach towards the financial Ising model. Most studies utilize the model to find settings which generate returns closely mimicking the financial stylized fact such as fat tails, volatility clustering and persistence, and others. We tackle the model utility from the other...

Recent literature contains many examples of reputation systems which are constructed in anad hoc way or rely upon some heuristic which has been found to be useful. However,comparisons between these reputation systems has been impossible because there are noestablished methods of comparing...

Economic scheduling needs to be considered for Grid computing environment, because it gives an incentive for resource providers to supply their resources. Moreover, it enforces efficient use of resources, because the users have to pay for theiruse. Tendering is a suitable model for Grid...

In diesem Beitrag stellen wir ein Konzept greifbarer, gegenständlicher Benutzungsschnittstellen vor. Es werdenÜbergänge zwischen dem Modellieren im Realen und dem Erstellen virtueller Modelle geschaffen. Synchronzum gegenständlichen Modell entsteht ein virtuelles Abbild, das für Simulation,...
