Multiagent Simulation Model Design Strategies.

Model design is particularly challenging for multiagent simulation models as the simulation paradigm does hardly impose constraints on it. This contribution systematically analyzes procedures for developing a multi-agent simulation model: iterative methods derived from principles, such as KISS or KIDS and methods focussing on the different design elements (agents, interaction, environment).
