Abstract

All individuals of every nation rely on many infrastructures that provide us all essential services to support our welfare, economy and quality of life. These critical infrastructures are complex and interdependent systems and a comprehensive study of their dynamic is mainly addressed using simulative approaches. In this paper we discuss advantages, drawbacks, cost and scalability of two agent based methodologies (macro-agent based and micro-agent based simulation), and related implementations, to model and simulate interdependent critical infrastructures.
