BIODEFENSE: MULTI-AGENT CITY-SCALE SIMULATION OF DISEASE DISPERSION

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中的一个 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目和 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金， 因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为 研究中心，而研究中心不一定是研究者所在的机构。 BioWar是一个多智能体的城市规模模型，用于调查化学和生物攻击的影响，以及传染病的传播。将创建和比较虚拟城市实例，并将为正在进行的运动进行使用流感和SARS的虚拟实验。我们有兴趣探索如何执行这两个组件可以并行化，以及如何适当的随机方面可以实现可重复的实验。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. BioWar, a multi-agent city-scale model used to investigate effects of chemical and biological attacks, as well as dispersion of contagious, infectious diseases, will be ported. Virtual city instances will be created and compared, and virtual experiments using influenza and SARS will be run for an ongoing campaign. We are interested in exploring how execution of these two components can be parallelized, and how appropriate stochastic aspects can be implemented for repeatable experiments.
