Abstract

The very simple model known as Stupid Model was proposed in 2005. Stupid Model could be implemented within a couple of hours, and was later extended to demonstrate the use of common ABM platform functionality. Implementations of the model in several agent-based modeling platforms were provided, and platforms were compared for ease of implementation and performance. In this paper, Stupid Model is implemented in the EcoLab simulation platform (a C++ based modeling platform), demonstrating that it is a feasible platform for these sorts of models. The performance of the implementation is compared with the Repast, Mason and Swarm versions.
