2022-10-25: Quasi-Endowment

Now that we're re-instated as a valid 501(c)(3) with the IRS (thanks to Charitable Allies for their help), we are pursuing a "quasi-endowment". Our intention is to invest the remaining funds and use any dividends from that investment to support ABM community members with conference registration fees, travel, etc. We will need to supplement that with donations, as well, because only a percentage of income can be from investment returns. Once we have the investment set up, we'll have an indication of how much we'll need in donations, which will provide the kernel for a fund-raising objective.

Swarm Software for Agent-based Modeling

Agent- and Individual-based Modeling Resources

Resources for agent-based modeling. This area of the wiki is for information on agent-based modeling in general. This area is no longer maintained and we refer interested people to more up-to-date sites such as www.OpenABM.org

There is still information on:

  • Agent-based modeling community resources
  • Software (information on alternative platforms; learning materials; template models; integrated development environments)
  • "How and why to do agent-based modeling": techniques and theory
  • Resources specific to different scientific domains
