Abstract
Computers played a critical role in the initial development of multispecies modeling of fish populations in the 1970s and, with the growing popularity of the individual-based approach, we believe they could again play a critical role in the near future. The importance of multispecies considerations has long been recognized in fisheries (Mercer, 1982; Daan and Sissenwine, 1989). Quantitative analysis of multispecies problems require some minimal level of digital computing power. Consequently, multispecies modeling received a great deal of attention with the initial availability of digital computing in the 1970s. However, whereas digital computing power has since increased at an exponential rate, the multispecies models used today are generally similar to those initial applications. As computing power increased, the limitation to multispecies modeling quickly became lack of knowledge about biological interactions. Thus, while multispecies modeling shared the initial burst of activity with digital computing, it did not continue to advance as computing power has. We argue that with the growing interest in the individual-based modeling approach, multispecies modeling will experience another burst of research activity. Computing will again become a limiting factor in analyses because the individual-based approach is very computing intensive.
