EIA-0075506Alok ChaturvediPurdue UniversityCISE Next Generation Software: An Agent Based Modeling Framework for Scalable Interdependent Markets and OrganizationERP systems are ubiquitous in the world of business. They are the source of competitive advantage that many companies enjoy today. Yet, the process of installing and using them is time consuming, frustrating and costly, and often businesses are not able to capture the full value inherent in such systems. We propose the construction of a scalable, agent based, virtual test bed for ERP systems. The system that is proposed is called SEAS or Synthetic Environments for Analysis and Simulations. When fully developed, SEAS used in conjunction with existing ERP systems will be helpful in creating a unified view of the business organization and its relation to the market mechanism. Users will be able to better understand the complexities and usefulness of ERP systemsSEAS will enable researchers from around the world to create virtual firms, consumers and regulators. Using the SEAS system we plan to model an actual industry, (for example the PC industry) to use it to examine the following issues:The reconfiguration of the enterprise landscape as a result of electronic commerce-including questions of dis-intermediation, and the reconstruction of the supply chain.The creation computational models of competitive and cooperative behavior in a variety of market settings involving the calibration of artificial agents against human players.SEAS will also be used for teaching Economics and Management at all levels including high school, undergraduate, graduate and continuing education.

EIA-0075506 Alok Chaturvedi普渡大学下一代软件：基于代理的可伸缩相互依赖的市场和组织建模框架ERP系统在商业世界中无处不在。它们是当今许多公司享有的竞争优势的来源。然而，安装和使用它们的过程是耗时、令人沮丧和昂贵的，而且企业往往无法获得此类系统所固有的全部价值。提出了构建一个可扩展的、基于代理的ERP系统虚拟测试平台。提出的系统被称为SEA或用于分析和模拟的合成环境。在充分开发后，SEA与现有的企业资源规划系统结合使用，将有助于建立对企业组织及其与市场机制的关系的统一看法。用户将能够更好地了解ERP系统的复杂性和实用性SEAS将使来自世界各地的研究人员能够创建虚拟公司、消费者和监管机构。我们计划使用SEA系统对一个实际的行业(例如PC行业)进行建模，以使用它来研究以下问题：电子商务导致的企业格局的重新配置-包括非中介问题，以及供应链的重建。在各种市场环境中创建竞争和合作行为的计算模型，涉及人工代理人与人类参与者的校准。SEAS还将用于包括高中、本科、研究生和继续教育在内的所有级别的经济学和管理学教学。
