Multi-Agent-Based Simulation Second International Workshop, MABS 2000, Boston, MA, USA, July 2000; Revised and Additional Papers

This volume is based on papers accepted for the Second International Workshop on Multi-agent-based Simulation (MABS-2000)federated with the Fourth Int- national Conference on Multi Agent Systems (ICMAS-2000)held in Boston in July 2000. The purpose of MABS-2000 was to investigate and develop the syne...
