Observations on the shortest independent loop set algorithm
(System Dynamics Society / Wiley, 2012-07-31)
The shortest independent loop set (SILS) algorithm is a widely adopted loop selection method in eigenvalue elasticity analysis to identify dominant loops. However, we find that, in an individual-based model, the SILS cannot ...
Input and output data analysis for system dynamics modelling using the tidyverse libraries of R
(Wiley, 2018-09-07)
From a number of perspectives, system dynamics is a data‐intensive activity. First, each modelling challenge addresses behaviour over time, where historical time series data inform the model‐building process, and techniques ...
When and why metaheuristics researchers can ignore “No Free Lunch” theorems
(Springer, 2019-03-25)
The No Free Lunch (NFL) theorem for search and optimisation states that averaged across all possible objective functions on a fixed search space, all search algorithms perform equally well. Several refined versions of the ...
Multi-objective multi-agent decision making: a utility-based analysis and survey
(Springer Verlag, 2019-12-09)
The majority of multi-agent system implementations aim to optimise agents policies with respect to a single objective, despite the fact that many real-world problem domains are inherently multi-objective in nature. ...
A system dynamics approach to increasing ocean literacy
(Frontiers Media, 2019-06-28)
Ocean Literacy (OL) has multiple aspects or dimensions: from knowledge about how the oceans work and our impact on them, to attitudes toward topics such as sustainable fisheries, and our behaviour as consumers, tourists, ...
