Dear SIMSOC members
I am looking for a paper that describes how an agent-based simulation executable works inside (a detailed description of the simulation cycle). Is this simulation cycle different for different software packages (e.g. Swarm, Repast, etc.)? Is there a paper that compares the different approaches? Does a micro simulation executable work in the same way?
I found a very informative paper for discrete-event simulation 'Inside discrete-event simulation software: How it works and why it matters' (http://www.informs-sim.org/wsc10papers/015.pdf) but nothing for agent-based or micro simulation.
Many thanks for your help!
