Infrastructure

Infrastructure models examine the operations of infrastructure networks related to crucial distribution, such as the flow of commodities, energy and information. Agent-based models of such networks simulate network operations under normal conditions, as well as the impact on operations resulting from failures and changes in the conditions. Our models often link different types of infrastructures (e.g. Telecommunications, electric power, etc.) into overarching logistics models and incorporate market models to derive the evolving costs and rewards facing each entity.
