[Swarm-Modelling] Course Announcement: Agent-based Modeling and Repast at Argonne May 14-18, 2012

[North, Michael]

Argonne National Laboratory and the Santa Fe Institute are holding their 11th 
annual agent-based modeling course from May 14 to 18, 2012. The course is an 
intensive applications-oriented introduction to agent-based modeling based on 
Michael North and Charles Macal’s book Managing Business Complexity: 
Discovering Strategic Solutions with Agent-Based Modeling and Simulation 
(Oxford 2007). The first half of the course will focus on agent modeling 
concepts from the perspective of managers and analysts. The second half of the 
course will focus on agent modeling implementation from the perspective of 
software developers and will include extensive hands-on exercises with Repast 
Simphony ReLogo. Participants are invited to attend the first session, the 
second session, or both depending on their interests. The course will be held 
at Argonne, which is located in the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois USA. More 
information on the course and registration forms can be found here:
