Dear all, We are happy to announce the second ComSES Challenge – Models for Sustainability.
The challenge is to develop an agent-based model that can be used to teach concepts of sustainability at the high school level. The author(s) of the winning entry will receive a cash prize of 1000 Euro. The models will be evaluated by high school students as well as a jury of scholars. The deadline for submissions is April 2, 2012. Full details of the ComSES Challenge 2012 can be found at http://www.openabm.org/story/comses-challenge-2012. FYI. The winner of the first ComSES Challenge is Giangiacomo Bravo. We are submitting a paper on the results of that modeling tournament to a journal and let you know when it is published. All the best Marco ------------------------------------------------------------------ Dr. Marco A.
