A DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR HOSPITAL EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS DESIGNED USING AGENT-BASED TECHNIQUES

by C. Laroque, J. Himmelspach, R. Pasupathy, O. Rose, A. M. Uhrmacher, Manel Taboada, Eduardo Cabrera, Emilio Luque, Tomas Cerda, Edificio Q, Francisco Epelde, Ma Luisa Iglesias
"... This paper presents the results of an ongoing project whose objective is to develop a model and a simulation that, used as decision support system, aids the heads of hospital emergency departments (ED) to make the best informed decisions possible. The defined ED model is a pure Agent-Based Model, fo ..."

Towards an Emergence-Driven Software Process for Agent-Based Simulation

by Nuno David, Jaime Simão Sichman, Helder Coelho - 3rd International Workshop on Multi-Agent Based Simulation (MABS , 2002
"... Abstract. In this paper we propose an emergence-driven software process for agent-based simulation that clarifies the traceability of micro and macro observations to micro and macro specifications in agent-based models. We use the concept of hyperstructures [1] to illustrate how micro and macro spec ..."

A Generalized Agent-Based Model to Simulate Emergency Departments

by Zhengchun Liu, Eduardo Cabrera, Dolores Rexachs, Emilio Luque
"... Abstract—Computer simulation based methods have enjoyed widespread use in healthcare system investigation and improve-ment in recent years. Healthcare systems are based on human interactions and Emergency Departments (ED) are one of the key components of the healthcare system. The efficiency and qua ..."

and quality of service in ED have a great influence on the whole healthcare system. The first step to intensively study the emergency depart-ment, to find its underlying problem or to provide the best service with limited budget, should be to create a realistic computational model of the ED. Agent-Based

REDSim: A SPATIAL AGENT-BASED SIMULATION FOR STUDYING EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS

by Ana Paula Centeno, Richard Martin, Robert Sweeney
"... Faced with a mismatch between demand and resources, Emergency Department (ED) administrators and staff need to gauge the impacts of staff decision processes in lieu of increasing resource levels. In this paper we present REDSim, a spatial agent-based simulation framework for studying emergency depar ..."

DISTRIBUTED HYBRID AGENT-BASED DISCRETE EVENT EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES SIMULATION

by M. E. Kuhl, Anastasia Anagnostou, Athar Nouman, Simon J. E. Taylor
"... This paper presents the development of a distributed hybrid agent-based (ABS) discrete event simulation (DES) model within the context of emergency medical services (EMS). The existing simulation models of EMS either are considered as a single model or several standalone models that represent differ ..."

Component-Based Simulation and Agent-Based Brokering: Towards Ad Hoc Simulations in Crisis and Emergency Management

by Boleslaw Szymanski, Gilbert Chen, Linda F. Wilson - Proc. Computer Networks and Distributed Systems Modeling and Simulation, CNDS'03 , 2003
"... components, software agents, mobile agent systems Crisis and emergency management systems often require the use of large simulations to predict future developments of the simulated phenomena. For example, floods and forest fires are dynamic phenomena with devastating consequences. Simulations for th ..."

Towards Semiotic Agent-Based Models of Socio-Technical Organizations

by Cliff Joslyn, Luis M. Rocha - in: Proc. AI and Simulation 2000, ed. HS Sarjoughian et al , 2000
"... We present an approach to agent modeling of socio-technical organizations based on the principles of semiotics. After reviewing complex systems theory and traditional Artificial Life (ALife) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) approaches to agent-based modeling, we introduce the fundamental principles ..."

SUB-LOGNORMAL SIZE DISTRIBUTION OF HOSPITALS – AN AGENT-BASED APPROACH AND EMPIRICAL STUDY

by M. E. Kuhl, Baojun Gao, Wai Kin (victor Chan
"... This paper studies the size distribution of hospitals and its underlying generative mechanisms. Based on the U.S. hospital data, we find that the size distribution is sub-lognormal (a leptokurtic distribution more skewed than normal but less skewed than lognormal). This distribution is different fro ..."

from those of firms and cities. We develop an agent-based simulation model to simulate the preference behavior of patients and the service processes of hospitals. The model can produce a sub-lognormal size distribution similar to the U.S. hospital size distribution. Sensitivity analysis shows
