[Swarm-Modelling] A short course on teaching agent- / individual-based modeling

[Steve Railsback]

This June, Volker Grimm and I will be conducting a one-week short course 
on individual- / agent-based modeling. The primary target of the course 
is people interested in teaching this kind of modeling at the university 
level. We will introduce our forthcoming textbook on agent-based 
modeling and prepare participants to lead classes using it. The course 
will include instruction in NetLogo software.

Please also be aware that Uta Berger is again offering her summer course 
in individual- and agent-based modeling through the Dresden University 
of Technology. This year the course is targeted to graduate students 
with "basic knowledge in the development and implementation of 
IBMs/ABMs, who look for an effective strategy for analyzing their 
running models and conducting simulation experiments." Information is
