Dynamic Environment
A dynamic environment refers to a context or setting in which elements, conditions, or factors are subject to change, variability, or evolution over time.
Introduction
Dynamic environments are characterized by changes and fluctuations over time. The conditions, resources, or other relevant factors in the environment can vary, influencing agent behavior and interactions. Dynamic environments allow for the exploration of complex systems where feedback loops, adaptation, or emergent behavior arise from the interplay between agents and their changing surroundings. ABM enables the modeling and analysis of agents' behavior and interactions within different types of environments. By incorporating static or dynamic features into the environment, researchers can explore how agents respond to their surroundings, how the environment affects the system's behavior, and how different environmental conditions influence the emergence of patterns and outcomes within the modeled system.
Explanation
In a version of Wolf Sheep model, we have seen grass has to be regrown with progress of time. Here environment is dynamic as patches with grass changes with time.
How to
This changes can be triggered by:
- Agents
- Environment Itself
- Both
Outgoing relations
- Dynamic Environment is a kind of Environment
