Library of Cormas Models
Cormas has allowed the development of numerous models. We propose
here a classification of the existing models.
Many applications are related to a concrete situation and to
field data. Some models concern the management
of a renewable resource (water, wild fauna, tree and wood,
soil and erosion, pasture, etc...). The economic
exchanges of agricultural products and natural resources are
the topic of some models. Others concern land-use
dynamics.
Several projects are currently contributing to build an approach
using jointly agent-based simulations and role-playing
games to facilitate discussion and concertation about
resources management.
Theoretical models deal with
questions of natural resources in a very abstract way, even if
concrete situations inspired them. Didactic
models were conceived in order to present Cormas
functioning. Some applications are called "coupled
models" because Cormas is associated with other tools
(geographic information systems, data base, other models).
Besides this classification, the alphabetical list of all
the models is available.
