Re: [Swarm-Modelling] Problem with models

[Paul Box]

Hi John

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking for here.  Are you looking for  
a simulation where somebody specifically used the Lorenz equations,  
simulations that show evolving behavior, models of learning, or a  
trading model?  There are many published models that have varying  
degrees of each of these in whatever combinations.  Are you looking for  
a model in swarm that has any or all of these aspects?

The prisoners dilemma and other such models are the fundamental  
building blocks for modeling cognitive and social behavior, and a  
highly recommended place to start if you're interested in building off  
existing research.

To which theory are you asking about?
