Conference Proceeding
Garnett, P., Stepney, S., Andrews, P., & Read, M. (2012). Going Around Again: Modelling Standing Ovations with a Flexible Agent-based Simulation Framework. In Proceedings of the 2012 workshop on complex systems modelling and simulation (27-46)

We describe how we have used the CoSMoS process to trans- form a computer simulation originally developed for the simulation of plant development for use in modelling aspects of audience behaviour. An existing agent-based simulator is re-factored to... Read More about Going Around Again: Modelling Standing Ovations with a Flexible Agent-based Simulation Framework.
