Computational Model Library

SearchResource (1.0.0)

The agent-based computational algorithm used by turtle agent is based on Wilensky [1] and gives to this the next improvements:
(i) the algorithm has a variable number of searching directions in comparison with the Wilensky algorithm that has only four directions; thus the number of searching direction can vary from 4 to 360.
(ii) the algorithm has two regimes: one is deterministic and uses the searching directions and the other is random and is used only if the first regime fails to find the resources that surrounds the agent.
