Abstract:Multi-agent simulations (MAS) have been used to study the dynamics of social systems. Disaster-related simulation is one of application fields. The simulation is applied to scenarios that are difficult to perform drills in the real world. The results provide useful data such as the amount of time people take to evacuate buildings and how smoothly rescue responders arrive at target points in the buildings. Making use of the simulation results to plan disaster-prevention measure, we need to verify that the simul… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
