-# SciML&CS reading event: Agent-Based Modeling (ABM)
-
-Reserve the date **21.03.2024 (14:30 - 15:30, Campus RJ, room 8.025)** for the coming reading event of the SciML&CS club (please react to the message if you are planning to come, so we can have an estimate of how many people are coming).
- 
 Imre Antalfy will be presenting on the topic "ABM: agent-based modeling". He sends the following information to get you up and ready for the event:
- 
 
 We will start with a presentation about the topic and will go into discussions afterwards. Agent-based modeling is used to study interaction between entities, where each entity is specified with a set of parameters to represent it. An example could be to study a predator-prey interaction in a given setting. In this example a "predator" agent is specified with a carnivorous need for food. A "prey" agent is defined with an herbivorous need for food. Both agents have a set speed and reproduction rate. After defining the agent, a world with a given size and amount of food is defined. Now one could study the implications of different food situations or evolutional adaptations.
 
-I have chosen the topic with my background in biogas will try to make an example of applying this method to a simplified reactor model, linking the modeling and the work of my PtX group.
