In society, many problems can be understood as multitasking process with multiplayer (MPM). Choosing different strategies or different orders in processing tasks, an individual will spend a different amount of time to complete all the tasks. Therefore, a good strategy or a good order can help an...

This paper studies phase diagrams of traffic states induced by the bottleneck of an unsignalized intersection which consists of two perpendicular one-lane roads. Parallel updates rules are employed for both roads. At the crossing point, in order to avoid colliding, the consideration of yield...

How to promote the innovative activities is an important problem for modern society. In this paper, combining the evolutionary games with information spreading, we propose a lattice model to investigate dynamics of human innovative behaviors based on benefit-driven assumption. Simulations show...

In this paper, we investigate two major immunization strategies, random immunization and targeted immunization, of the susceptible–infected (SI) model on the Barabási–Albert (BA) networks. For the heterogeneous structure, the random strategy is quite ineffective if the vaccinated proportion...

In this paper, we propose a simple rule that generates scale-free small-world networks with tunable assortative coefficient. These networks are constructed by two-stage adding process for each new node. The model can reproduce scale-free degree distributions and small-world effect. The...

In this paper, we analytically study the probabilistic accelerating network [M.J. Gagen, J.S. Mattick, Phys. Rev. E 72 (2005) 016123] in its accelerating regimes by using mean field theory. In the growing network, the number of links added with each new node is a nonlinearly increasing function...

In this work, the depreciation effect of public goods is considered in the public goods games, which is realized by rescaling the multiplication factor r of each group as r′=r(ncG)β (β≥0). It is assumed that each individual enjoys the full profit r of the public goods if all the players of...

We study the statistical properties of the attendance time series corresponding to the number of agents making a particular decision in the minority game (MG). We focus on the analysis of the probability distribution and the autocorrelation function of the attendance over a time interval in the...

In this paper, we incorporate a limitation on the interaction range between neighboring vehicles into the cellular automaton model proposed by Gao and Jiang et al. [K. Gao, R. Jiang, S. X. Hu, B. H. Wang and Q. S. Wu, Phys. Rev. E 76 (2007) 026105], which was established within the framework...

Introducing the force concept of a social force model into the lattice gas (LG) model, a new LG-based discrete model entitled “multi-grid model” is composed. In the new model, finer lattice is used; thus each pedestrian occupies multiple grids instead of one, and the rules of interactions...
