Project investigators made various presentations at the 2009 Annual Conference of the North American Association for Computational Social and Organization Sciences (NAACSOS). The meeting was hosted by the Center for Social Dynamics and Complexity and the Consortium for Biosocial Complex Systems of Arizona State University, Tempe/Phoenix, and took place on October 23-24, 2009.
Guillermo Podestá gave a talk (co-authored by several other project participants) titled “Dynamic adjustment of aspiration levels in agricultural systems of the Argentine Pampas.” The talk introduced the concept of an aspiration level (AL) as a special outcome separating results perceived as satisfactory or unsatisfactory, and described how an AL can feed various decision mechanisms in an agent-based model of land allocation.
Initial results from the project’s model of agricultural production in the Pampas was described in a second talk, “Agent-based simulation of recent changes in agricultural systems of the Argentine Pampas” (also with multiple authorship). Mike North (Argonne National Laboratory, ANL) introduced a new tool to link two modeling frameworks: NetLogo and Repast. Chick Macal (also from ANL) discussed agent-based and general equilibrium models of global oil markets. All investigators, including Pam Sydelko (ANL), took advantage of the meeting to discuss progress in the current CNH project.
