Abstract

The Multi-Agent Spatial Simulation (MASS) library, which we have developed at University of Washington Bothell, provides the efficiency of agent-based parallelization while abstracting the parallel environment for the agent-based modelĀ [1]. It provides a middle layer that only requires the user to contribute code relevant to their project without having to manage the details of parallelization.
