Ten minute dialogues

I was interviewed  about our agent-based model of the emergence of an ideal free distribution for the “Ten Minute Dialogs”, a  series of interviews with social and ecological model authors that focus on a particular model and delve into the purpose, methods, and design decisions. This is an excellent way to hear about interesting research, pick up some inspiration, or find out how people approach and reason through their models–something that is missed reading through papers or code. The full series is available on the CoMSES Net YouTube channel.

The Network for Computational Modeling in the Social and Ecological Sciences (CoMSES Net), is an open community of researchers, educators, and professionals with a common goal - improving the way we develop, share, use, and reuse agent based and computational models for the study of social and ecological systems.
