Chapter 13 discussed managing complex systems and chapter 15 introduced the advantages of visual decision support. Discuss how you would combine the two concepts to create visualizations for an ABM-Based Gaming simulation for policy-making. First, describe what specific policy youre trying to create. Lets stick with the SmartCity scenario. Describe a specific policy (that you havent used before), and how you plan to use ABM-Based Gaming to build a model for simulating the effects of the policy. Then, describe what type of visualization technique youll use to make the model more accessible. Use figure 15.9 and describe what data a new column for your policy would contain.
To complete this assignment, you must do the following:
A) Create a new thread. As indicated above, discuss how you would combine the two concepts to create visualizations for an ABM-Based Gaming simulation for policy-making. First, describe what specific policy youre trying to create. Lets stick with the SmartCity scenario. Describe a specific policy (that you havent used before), and how you plan to use ABM-Based Gaming to build a model for simulating the effects of the policy. Then, describe what type of visualization technique youll use to make the model more accessible. Use figure 15.9 and describe what data a new column for your policy would contain.
Quiz:
Select two resources on visual decision support for policy-making and write a short analysis (3-4 paragraphs). Include the APA formatted references in your submission.
