Most existing simulation models of this process are agent-based. However, when the number of agents considered becomes large, population-based simulation has computational advantages over agent-based simulation. This paper presents both an agent-based and a population-based simulation model of crime displacement, and reports a comparative evaluation of the two models. In addition, an approach is put forward to analyse the behaviour of both models by means of formal techniques." links: doi: "http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/WIIAT.2008.333" tags: - "rule-based" - "agent based modeling" - "meta-model" - "modeling" - " Population Based Modeling" - "Meta-Environment" - "process modeling" - "systematic-approach" researchr: "https://researchr.org/publication/BosseGHJT08%3A0" cites: 0 citedby: 0 pages: "469-476" booktitle: "iat" kind: "inproceedings" key: "BosseGHJT08:0" - title: "Agent-Based and Population-Based Simulation of Displacement of Crime (extended abstract)" author: - name: "Tibor Bosse" link: "http://www.cs.vu.nl/~tbosse" - name: "Charlotte Gerritsen" link: "http://www.few.vu.nl/~cg" - name: "Mark Hoogendoorn" link: "http://www.cs.vu.nl/~mhoogen" - name: "Syed Waqar Jaffry" link: "http://www.few.vu.nl/~swjaffry" - name: "Jan Treur" link: "http://www.cs.vu.nl/~treur/" year: "2008" doi: "http://dx.doi.org/10.3233/978-1-58603-891-5-877" abstract: "Within Criminology, the process of crime displacement is usually explained by referring to the interaction of three types of agents: criminals, passers-by, and guardians.
