Abstract
Abstract : Construct is an agent-based network-centric simulation. Although frequently lumped together, agent-based simulations vary widely in complexity and computational cost some are extremely inexpensive (e.g., Swarm) and allow hundreds of thousands or even millions of agents to operate in the same simulation, while others are rather expensive and often require the support of an entire processor per agent (e.g., Soar or ACT-R). This increase in computational expense, however, is matched by construct validity to the actions of cognitively bounded humans: the least computationally expensive (per agent) simulations replicate the behavior of insects (specifically ants) while ACT-R has been able to replicate the brain activation patterns of children solving algebra problems and Soar has replicated fighter pilot operations in concert with human pilots.
