Space in multi-agent systems modelling spatial processes

摘要

Need for modelling of spatial processes arise in the spehere of geoinformation systems in the last time. Some processes (espetially natural ones) can be modeled by means of using external tools, e. g. for modelling of contaminant transport in the environment. But in the case of socio-economic processes suitable tools interconnected with GIS are still in quest of reserch and development. One of the candidate technologies are so called multi-agent systems. Their theory is developed quite well, but they lack suitable means for dealing with space. This article deals with this problem and proposes solution for the field of a road transport modelling.
