Description for Brownian Agents and Active Particles Paperback. Lays out a vision for a coherent framework for understanding complex systems. By developing the idea of Brownian agents, this work combines concepts from informatics, such as multiagent systems, with approaches of statistical many-particle physics. It also shows that Brownian agent models can be successfully applied in many different contexts. Series: Springer Series in Synergetics. Num Pages: 421 pages, 3 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PHF; PHP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 22. Weight in Grams: 613.
