Peer-to-peer networks for scalable grid landscapes in social agent simulations.

Conference Proceeding
Craenen, B. G. W., & Paechter, B. (2005)
Peer-to-peer networks for scalable grid landscapes in social agent simulations. In Proceedings of the Artificial Intelligence and Social Behaviour Convention (AISB) 2005, 64-71
