Beste Marco,
My name is Mark Moritz and I am an assistant professor in Anthropology
at the Ohio State University. Unfortunately, I will be missing your
talk on agent-based modeling at OSU because I am conducting fieldwork
in Cameroon in March. I just wanted to send a quick note because I was
looking forward to meeting you.
I study pastoral systems in Africa and my current research project
examines a situation of management of open access in the Logone
floodplain in Cameroon. In previous research we found evidence for an
ideal free distribution (IFD) of mobile pastoralists. My hypothesis is
that this IFD is a case of emergent complexity. To test this
hypothesis, I am combining spatial and ethnographic analyses with
agent-based modeling.
I know that you have written much about common property regimes and
agent-based modeling and would have loved to discuss our respective
research projects. Hopefully another time.
Met vriendelijke groeten,
Mark
P.S. Ik ben Nederlands maar ik schrijf makkelijker over mijn onderzoek
in het engels.

Dear folks,
Students of my Agent-based modeling uploaded a bunch of models to the
model archive (http://www.openabm.org/site/models/browse). Some models
are replications of existing models, others are their final projects.
The models cover a number of interesting areas from organizational
science, anthropology to geography and public policy. Some additional
models might be added in the coming days.
So, check it out
Marco
