PANEL: Andrei Borshchev, Xjtek,Russia; Nate Osgood MIT,USA; Mark Paich, Decisio Consulting, USA; Hazhir Rahmandad, Sloan School of Management, MIT, USA; Mark Heffernan, International System Dynamics, Australia; Sara Metcalf, University of Illinois, USA; Chris Johnson General Electric, USA;Geoff McDonnell UNSW Australia; Other users from industry. There is increasing interest in combining agent based (AB) and system dynamics (SD) modeling methods. This workshop will demonstrate the differences between the AB and SD approaches using some popular examples from the Dynamics of Contagion and the Diffusion of Innovation, using the AnyLogic multi-method software. It will also walk through some practical examples of the use of combined methods in health, marketing and other industries. The workshop will conclude with a "warts and all" panel discussion involving experienced SD practitioners and researchers in SD, geography and computer science, all of whom are adding AB methods to their work.
