Revisiting the Contact Model with Diffusion Beyond the Conventional Methods
Roberto da Silva, Eliseu Venites Filho, Henrique Almeida Fernandes +1
The contact process is a non-equilibrium Hamiltonian model that, even in one dimension, lacks an exact solution and has been extensively studied via Monte Carlo simulations, both i…
Comfort-driven mobility produces spatial fragmentation in Axelrod's model
Sandro M. Reia, Paulo F. Gomes, José F. Fontanari
Axelrod's model for the dissemination of culture combines two key ingredients of social dynamics: social influence, through which people become more similar when they interact, and…
Policies for allocation of information in task-oriented groups: elitism and egalitarianism outperform welfarism
Sandro M. Reia, Paulo F. Gomes, José F. Fontanari
Communication or influence networks are probably the most controllable of all factors that are known to impact on the problem-solving capability of task-forces. In the case connect…
Individual decision making in task-oriented groups
Sandro M. Reia, Paulo F. Gomes, José F. Fontanari
The strategies adopted by individuals to select relevant information to pass on are central to understanding problem solving by groups. Here we use agent-based simulations to revis…
Mobility helps problem-solving systems to avoid Groupthink
Paulo F. Gomes, Sandro M. Reia, Francisco A. Rodrigues +1
Groupthink occurs when everyone in a group starts thinking alike, as when people put unlimited faith in a leader. Avoiding this phenomenon is a ubiquitous challenge to problem-solv…
