This book is addressed to Computer Science researchers and professionals who work in parallelism field and/or in multi-agent system (MAS) simulation. They can find in this book interesting analysis of parallel algorithms, but also a simple and powerful model of simulation of multi-agent systems. Agents are autonomous entities acting in an environment, and can be applied to a variety of domains, such as simulation of traffic jams, people or animal populations. The contribution of this book is threefold: (1) provide a simulation model of high-scale MASs, called ParSSAP, (2) do a parallel...
