This chapter discusses large-scale agent-based modeling and simulation (ABMS). Useful features of toolkits are discussed and the Repast and Swarm toolkits are considered as examples. Important features of large-scale development environments are also presented. The large-scale modeling lifecycle is discussed including tools such as design patterns, with the “agent-based model” and the “scheduler scramble” design patterns used as examples.

Keywords:   toolkits, Repast, Swarm, development environments, modeling lifecycle, design patterns, ABM design pattern, scheduler, scramble design pattern
